Candy Crush Saga

Matching games are lots of fun. Candy Crush has mastered the art of pandering to people’s impatient with intentionally poor level design and completion requirements, and purposefully not giving an amount of moves sufficient for clearing each level in an attempt to get you to spend lots of money. This starts in later levels (around 200) so that you’re good and invested in the game already. Additionally, it offers great deals for purchase very late at night, in anticipation that the resources will expire without you having adequate time to put them to use and inevitably end up stuck again and spend more money. Best to stick with classics like Bejeweled, games which are not motivated by micro transactions. Games which are truly fair and random.

10/10

It doesn’t give you any FREE BOOSTERS and so you don’t win as much or anything like that

I love the game but do not like how you get blocked from winning in attempts to get you to spend more $$$. The alternative is to not spend money and keep playing the game over and over and over depleting all of your chances and saved bars until you by some freakish luck you finally win. Example, I am trying to get purple candies for a contest. No purple candies are revealed throughout a “tough” game that you have played repeatedly until you are finally in a win round that you have invested a lot of time and $$ into. Next issue, after winning significant amount of rounds you win a specific amount of bars. I am finding I am not getting the bars I am promised. I just won 50 bars but only received 36. This has happened a few time so I started taking screenshots to confirm what is promised and what is received. Lastly, I am being shorted time on some of my incentives/boosters. Also I am finding that

I love this game! It is perfect for passing time and just having fun! I could play this game all day and one of my favorite things is that there are no annoying ads! If you are thinking of getting this game you should get it.

This game has some of the most predatory, in your face multistream microtransaction nonsense I’ve ever seen. I beat a level and five different offers popped up one after another for between $1 and $3 each. This is a horrible game.

Why change such a primary part of the aesthetic of the game? Too big and curvy with all the other shapes on screen. And enough with forcing Candy Royale down my throat. Never ever won and do not enjoy wasting my limited free booster time with more things to close to get back to the game! Level 6478.

I keep deleting this game and restarting because it gets to a point where it just isn’t fun anymore and I’m not in a position to buy my way through it. Too bad you can’t watch ads if you get stuck.
