Candy Crush Saga

I am a long time player of this highly addictive game as evidenced by having passed level 10,000. But lately there have been some very irritating technical and feature changes that combine to make the game less fun. These have mostly been described in the Candy Crush Forum but the only reply is the vanilla “thank you for your feedback”. Most irritating to me is the ridiculous forcing of players into the Candy Royale sub-game. It used to be that this would pop up from time to time and I could x out of it. No more. Now I need to wait for it to load, find me players on my level (as if I believe that), and be wished good luck. Then when I inevitably lose I have to be taken to the “sorry you lost and better luck next time screen. All of this just wastes my time for a very slender chance of winning a handful of gold bars. No thank you; I’d rather just play. Shouldn’t it be my choice and not King’s whether or not I participate? Secondly, I am commonly offered boosters or extra moves in exchange for watching an ad. Fine with me. But there is a relatively recent technical glitch where I click on the purple “watch ad” button and absolutely nothing happens. No ad, no error message, nothing other than telling me to press to watch the ad. Third, my preferred method of playing the game is in landscape mode on my iPad. That’s been taken away and I am forced to play it in portrait mode: a real problem when the device is on a stand configured in landscape orientation. On top of this the ads, when they do play, default to landscape mode. So I have to constantly move the iPads orientation just to accommodate everything. Fourth, rewards for completing levels or challenges like the chocolate box have morphed to mini 5 minute use of a booster. That’s enough for 1 or perhaps 2 rounds (if I don’t have to waste my time with the Candy Royale nonsense). And it is not uncommon that these rewards show up just when I’ve lost my last life so they expire before I can use them. I have no idea why anyone thinks this is better than just giving the booster to be used on my terms but it’s gotten to the point where I don’t even bother to look at what I’ve won. Fifth, the reward for finishing in 3rd, 4th, or 5th place is identical. Same is true for 2nd and 3rd place in the weekly contest. Why? Shouldn’t there be an incentive to keep working? Now once I see that I won’t get the top prize I have no incentive to keep playing. Finally, the chocolate box has been updated but made worse. Not only are the rewards weaker but it has changed so that I can’t effectively select the challenge. There are 4 choices per chocolate square but I am only a.lowed 3 changes. But it isn’t until I make the change that I know what the alternatives are. If I decide the original challenge is preferable I then have no way to return to it. At least show me my options! C’mon King. You have a great game and a loyal fan base. It’s time to start listening to this constructive feedback and make some changes. None of them will interfere with your revenue stream!

And of course the customer service is a bot

Like everyone else I’m sick of the compulsory Candy Royale 10 times a day it’s annoying it takes a long time to load and nobody really wants to play. And it seems like after we hit the 5000s all the little freebie bonuses go away there’s no more ads that you can watch to get any sort of helper. So you’re stuck on levels for days and days and days and I refuse to pay. And it’s not really fun anymore.

Excellent superb job

Exploiting very nice game to extort $ from us. Algorithm running the game is set against the player. This game is not for relaxation but for the King company to exploit players. First levels are very nice to play but on later stage game is designed to take advantage against players. ERASE THE GAME!!!

For the most part I enjoy this game. However, it is beyond frustrating to lose over 150 gifted lives They simply disappeared. Explanation received was, it happens, sometimes they’re lost in an update. Sounds like a bug to me. Please, fix it. Suggestion was, don’t store free boosters. Since only 20 can be used each day, how do I not store these gifts. I’ve had all my boosters disappear. Same response, it happens. And, they are not able to return the lost items. 🤬

Ads generated by Candy Crush (such as Barbie ads) cannot be muted. Be careful playing this game where you need to be quiet. Although external ads will stay silent, the Barbie ads will not be muted. The internal ads ignore the mute button.

I wrote this review on his behalf, he has been having some terrible candy crush relapses in the past year and his social, school, and home life have been crushed as well. Poor thing never looks up from his phone, he doesn’t play any sports anymore, just candy crush, his dad is disappointed and his mom has left his father because of him. Shut the game down immediately. Terrible

Best game

Me encanta
