Community Insight:
Winne Desk Sosa were r u rip we lv u all.
Finally ruined the game by inserting ads right before every round.
Best game ever this game can make youDo sometimes and we sometimes rage quit on this game we want it to be easier:/and just so you know, we played this once on Airport and this is actually a good fun game to play off-line but only problem is you have to also pay stuff:/.
Ive completed 100 levels in 2 days. Its fun after losing all our lives in candy crush but the levels go by so quick. Gonna try out candy crush jelly. ChatGPT said it was the second most difficult.
How can we get paid for playing this game.
We know we cant be the only one that thinks the bear (after beating a level) sounds like its saying, Pika!, like Pikacha says. Right.
We love this game it is a lot of fun and helps with eye and hand for and lots of rewards and very addictive and. Competitive at the same time.
We love this game because it is so fun.
We are at level 5748 and we have come to a point in the game where we are concerned at what appears to be a very obvious and blatant drive for the player, ourselves, to spend money to pass the levels. We have enjoyed this game for several years and have learned the nuances of this game and what makes it tick. We got to level 5500 and things changed. It has become very obvious that now in order to pass levels, we need to spend money. Very obvious. To make head way and go through levels you will be prompted to spend money to make the level complete. We do understand that the developers need to be paid, but at what cost? And they dont care. Our wife has spent hundreds of dollars while we have not. Thats how we know the game is now driven at this point to make you spend money to win. She passed us 400 levels in two weeks by paying her way through. So for now we will no longer play because of developer practices. Buyer beware.
We totally agree with the first review we even read; where is Kimmys arcade??!! We loved that because when we have no money and no gold bars and all our boosters are gone, we could at least earn some to help us with the super hard levels that take us a whole 24 hours to defeat! That and, the losing all the bottles as opposed to losing 1, yes we have to saymakes us unable to want to keep playing. Other than that we love this game, we wake in the middle of the night and play, its challenging but beatable and sometimes we spend cash to help us out, it feels like Im being forced to spend and theyre really great deals but we have absolutely no way to pay! When Im broke, Im broke! This game gets us through boring car rides, and long wait times anywhere.
This game was original back then but now it sucks. Every time we get an ad for your stupid game we're randomly redirected to the game. The ads suck and we don't wanna be redirected to your garbage game every time. GEOMETRY DASH EXISTS YOU KNOW.
Im on level 5600 been playing for years last couple weeks. Most of the time an ad comes on it locks up and we cant get out of the ad so we lose all our Bonuses.
Not at all happy with new changes to the game. Its like you are forcing us to buy gold bars. You made Yetis Challenge 9 levels instead of 6, and you took away the ability to earn extra turns by watching ads. Gonna quit playing. Not gonna pay.
This game is fun and challenging but on average every third screen when we try to watch an ad for more turns, the video fails to load and we lose our progress. This doesnt happen occasionally- it happens frequently and Im considering deleting the game. Too much competition out there to put up with soooooo many fails.
We have been playing this game for a decade and it is becoming increasingly awful because of the ridiculous amount and length of the ads. Its not even enjoyable anymore. You took away the team chat feature as well which really sucks. We get that the game is a business but if youre not soliciting feedback from customers before rolling out these changes, then you have awful quality management. Do Better King.
After the recent update, it constant crashes and freezes that almost cannot finish one level. Please care for the users playing on old devices – when using game account logging on new device, it always lost boosts earned before or level reached. So we had to play it on backup old phones.
Candy Crush Soda Saga us has hecho la vida ms fcil. Gracias.
Greatest game ever totally worth it we recommend.
Soothing game to play while listenin to music.
Can download your game on our iPod.
We never thought we would play boring games like this but you have surprised us by making this incredible game that has no commercials and is very addictive so we hope you guys can make more awesome games like this for everyone to play.
We think that candy crush is a very good game and a very good puzzle game to open up the mind, but one thing that really made us upset was when we were going to get our winning streak to 20 and because of the difficult closing ad because it malfunctioned we couldnt exit out so we lost our streak unfairly. We would appreciate if you could fix that and before you say it was probably just another malfunction. It happened again not the same exact ad, but the X for closing out was so small. We even used a stylus, but it still didnt work. We have complaints about that but we do think Candy crush is a really good game. Please fix these. We dont want these happening to any other person that may have a big streak. We really cared about our streak and it just poof! Gone.very good game though please fix the malfunctions with the ads.
The latest update removed the mini challenge 4 in a row. That was our favorite one so hopefully it is brought back soon.
Used to be one of the best games in the App Store. But now the rewards are limited. You have to play more and more in game games. Constantly exiting different screens to move on. The race used to be a constant and was a way of collecting gold bars. No longer. There are all types of time limits on anything that would reward the player. Its just a typical meh game now.
Been playing this game for years but the past year something has changed. We pass one maybe two levels and then Im stuck on the next level for three weeks. Its taking all the fun out of the game. Probably deleting it now.
Spammy ads for apps that lie about health tracking. Your phone cant measure blood sugar just by taking a picture of your finger.
Started out to be fun. In the higher levels all games are label hard to super hard and for us impossible unless you spend money for gold bars or power up.
This is a fun little game, fairly easy to win or to learn to play, and once you know how to play easy to win also, it gives you the opportunity not to spend money and let you watch commercials instead to get some more chance of playing. Thats something we really like its a lot of fun.
Geesh! Let us earn the gold bars by watching ads! Its hard to get by the higher levels, when your game is PAY TO WIN.
Ive been playing this game for 100 years and the rewards are nowhere as good as they used to be. We still enjoy this dumb game and doubt anything will be done, but it feels good to vent.
When we reached the end of level 464, there is a glitch that results in continuous point increases but no actual end to the level. The point count was increasing by the millions but the level would not end. We think there may be a coding error that needs some addressing. Have played this game for years with no issues ever until this. Still love this game though.
We made the mistake of making ONE in-app purchase to help us complete a level, and now the game ensures we can never complete a level on our first try ever again.
Just wondering if anyone else is having boredom problem we mean been playing for years but in last six months it just seems so boring ,Ive gotten some really good rewards with like 24 hrs unlimited lives but after a couple hours Im yawning and just bored and we play a lot of games ,the regular candy crush never gets boring .maybe just burnt out on it we dont know.
For the most part it a good game, but lot of the will not process all the way if you watch the ad and then the screen go black and you lose all progress Nov6 2023 we see you still havent fix the ad so they will work properly Look time to delete game getting closer The game got so it freezes a lot time causing you to lose a life and game.
Love this game its always been a go to game for relaxation and quieting our mind. We do, however, miss the old music. Thats our favorite part about the game.
What happened to the second chances? Every time there is an update we lose them.
We have enjoyed this game, we are on a 810 day streak and on level 3880 for the last 2 weeks. We have gotten to the top of the Wonderball (that infinity sign is misleading by the way lost it twice) only to hit a Hard a level .. Or a Extra Hard level , which comes about every three games and RIGHT before getting the Wonderball and lose, and lose them ALL, Its not fun anymore. Why would we pay for boosters, if the ones we earn, dont do anything?? Tired of pushing candies around that do nothing, and fish that miss the LAST candy to win we think we need to find another game, time to download Royal Kingdom.
The game is great but the ads are extremely annoying and we mean extremely. It takes many clicks to get back to the game or the ad will get stuck making it impossible to get back to your game so you lose the reason you sit thru the annoying ads in the first place. Annoying annoying annoying, do better please.
Best app to play when you are trying to kill time for a friend.
Fine game choice for dexterity and brain development Good game Fine choice for gamesmanship.
We enjoy playing candy crush soda. We love saving the bears.
We scene love this app game about 10 years ago and Im addiction to this app game very well and if we say so ourselves.
Us encanta Candy Crush Soda Saga. Cambie el equipo. Agradezco si us lo sincronizan para continuar donde iba.
Love the game but please dont change the music.
Nice game. Hate the 4 in a row part with random players. They take too long to meet the goal.
We love candy crush soda but please can yall make the fish smarter you got one move left and you use a fish and they go to a completely unrelated spot its so annoying fr.
The game is fun and challenging, but the ads are absolutely horrific. Opens a browser tab which in turn opens the App Store. Credit Karma and homes.com are the worst. Almost ready to delete this game because of the frustration.
We enjoy this game immensely; however, recently it has become apparent that they are a pay-to-play app now. We get stuck on levels for weeks at a time and the game is no longer relaxing, its frustrating. What used to be a little mental vacation has become a source of frustration. Please, go back to making the levels something you can beat and not have to pay to win.
Fun game but it cheats often in an attempt to get users to spend money or purchase bonus content. Also has tons of pop ups or screens you cannot exit during unlimited lives or bonus options.
Please fix this situation for the long term instead of patching it with just a few new levels.
