Graphics and sound

Candy Crush Saga features straightforward, cartoonish graphics and sounds that strive to create a dynamic and responsive atmosphere so that the player is always rewarded visually and audibly. In addition, the game features good animations, providing an overall pleasant visual experience.

Duration and game modes

Playing only the main story of the game will take you about 14 hours, but if you strive for all the extras, you are likely to play hundreds of hours. Candy Crush Saga offers plenty of different game modes:

Target Score: Those are the most accessible levels to clear as you have to get a given score using all the available moves you have. You will fail if you reach the target score with leftover moves.
Clear the Jelly: You will have to remove all the jelly on the board. Jellys are translucent elements that can only be broken if a candy on the square with jelly is removed. To destroy white double-jellies, you will need two hits.
Collect the Ingredient: In the ingredient levels, you must collect all the required ingredients by bringing them down to the bottom of the grid.
Order: In Candy Order levels, you have to collect a given amount of candies, but also combinations of candies and blockers, all of them within a fixed number of moves.
Mixed: Mixed levels can be the most difficult as they combine several game modes into one puzzle.
Rainbow Rapids: You need to collect rainbow candies by leading the rainbow rapids from the cannons to the mold. But the task will be more complex than it seems because rainbow streams must be cleared.

What do the reviews say?

Candy Crush Saga has been rated 79/100 by Metacritic.

"Candy Crush Saga is as addictive as it is frustrating. The game starts off easy, but soon gets difficult and very challenging. The downside the game has is that you keep on getting Facebook messages from friends." (XGN)
