It's been long..

So what have I been doing? Busy crushing candies. Yes the candy crush saga craze. Everyone is playing it. On buses and trains if u hear "sweet", "tasty" or even "DIVINE", somebody is playing it. So how does the game go? At first I thought it was just another ordinary 3-in-a-row matching game. And I was wrong. Most matching games have time limits as one of their challenges. This one puts a limit to the number of moves you can make to accomplish the task (something not found in other similar matching games).

What I like about the game

This game is addictive. Why? Some levels are easy to pass, so after getting through a few rounds, your confidence level rise. When you reach a difficult round and you cannot complete the game within the stated number of moves, you tend to think, "ah.. I can do it the next round." So you go on and on and on and before you know it, you have used up all your lives. My favorite challenge would be to score a certain number of points within a time limit. Cuz that's the only round without move limits. Sometimes move limits can be pretty annoying, especially if you are just short of a few moves to complete the game and there goes your life. Gua gua gua..

What I don't like about this game

I don't know why nowadays so many games like to make you wait for your lives to top up. Diamond dash is also like that. It's 30 mins for every life top up in Candy crush. You can also ask friends to send you lives. But I find it very paiseh to bug my fb friends for lives so I usually choose to wait. The wait is annoying when you are getting the momentum already and you wanna try another round, you realize you have run out of lives. Grrr.. In fact I'm waiting for my lives to top up while typing this. Haha.. Well there is a glitch in the game to my advantage. When I used up my lives playing the game on my iPhone, I can continue on my iPad. The game is updated but the lives not synced. Haha so I can play 5 + 5 = 10 rounds at one go. Still not enough for me though =P

The boosters are too expensive. Don't ever buy them. I believe every level can be completed without the boosters. Don't buy lives also. I know king.com wanna earn my $$$. Too bad, I'm not so dumb..

Currently I'm at level 147. I have been stuck in this level for 3 days already. Hopefully can get through it soon..

So friends out there, if you haven't tried the game, go download on your smartphone. If you are currently playing and need me to send you lives or unlock episodes, send me a request. If you are stuck in a level, persevere. This games requires a lot of determination and of course some luck. Happy crushing candies!
