Candy Crush Saga 4+

So I have been playing Candy Crush since it was first released! Back then it was a fun and easy game, and it was fair between the new & older players, and I played it every day, having lots of fun. Until, I took a break from the game and game back. Everything was normal for me, however, my cousin was going to join the CandyCrush Community that exact day, when she joined, she played a few levels and she was instantly showered with boosts, lives, unlimited lives and she kept getting notifications of her getting more and more boosts, lives, etc. We both though this was extremely unfair because when I joined, I did not have the luxury items she did when I joined the game. I don’t know how, but with the help of my family, I am really close to completing Candy Crush and excitedly waiting for more levels! I am writing this review to say it was not fair! Please try giving us older players some good items in the next update!!!

This is going to be a mostly critical review, because there’s really not much I enjoy about it at this point. It’s a game to play when I’m bored, an app to open for the daily gift. I’ve lost count of the amount of times I’ve played for a few days consecutively then neglected the game entirely for something else. There’s just not enough in the game to keep someone interested when you get into the thousands territory of levels. There needs to be more events and more chances to win in events, because it’s ridiculous to insist that you have to get sugar stars 10x and whatnot just to win a 1 hour booster. The amount of things that pop up when you open the app and have to vigorously tap through is annoying. Getting rid of the spin to win when you lose a game was a mistake, obviously a money ploy. Another thing is the beanstalk. You lose all your winnings to see that you can try again in another 24 hours which isn’t the case, you’ll get another chance in a week or two. I’m aware of how nitpicky parts of this review will seem, I’m very bored and I like to complain, hopefully this is all taken on board. One thing I do currently like about the game is booster bot, I don’t think it’s insanely generous to compensate for the things I’ve complained about but it’s a consistent positive thing nonetheless, maybe that’ll stop a few more children from screaming at their parents to buy them stuff on this game.

Was great when first released. A good challenge, with it saying you only got two more jellies, timed levels then chocolate factories. It gotten more fun when Sugar Drop feature was enabled, and later on Rank Up.

Now everything has changed. Levels from 60 upwards made harder. Revised to Super Hard and above sometimes. Brings in more frustration as never enough allocation of moves. Events you are playing against bots now, and even to win you have to use more boosters than you get as reward to claim. Much more, or be on it all day with no life. Sugar Drops and Rank Up gone by 2021. Since then this game has got worse and worse. No fun by now, no challenge as hopelessness and frustration takes over in hard or harder levels, which are a large percentage of all levels, about 33%. Episode race remains but must get first place then use the gold to pass the next episode, if very lucky with the hard and super hard, and most of all Legendary levels which are absolutely ridiculous. You must now pay to progress after every episode. Will not take long to reach that stage if you start playing now. The revamp to Legendary levels in the past 12 months has hammered the final nail in the coffin, to how it was in 2013. The game has ran out of steam, time to wind it up and say it was good while it lasted. Release a new version, we can all start again and have some fun, and a challenge not hopeless.
