Good job! Your write up could have been better written, especially the first couple of sentences. Great topic though!
That is a lot of money for being a game so simple. I don't usually spend money on games but i have on this game. 150 billion games of candy crush is a lot. I stopped at level 40 and i couldn't pass it anymore.
I've had Candy Crush on my ipod for about two or three weeks now and i think its fun and all but not really addicting in my opinion, but i think its fun sometimes
I have played this game, but was not a huge fan I think I got to level 10 then quit. I do not think anybody should have to spend money on these games. I do know that most people do like the game.
I do not play this game. I have a heard of it and everyone I talk to about it raves on how addicting and fun it is to play. I did not start to play it simply because I did not want to become addicted and waste all my time playing it. I knew it was big, but I did not realize it was this big. Can't you play for free on Facebook? When did this game come out? How long did it take for it to become so popular?
It was released on April 12, 2012 for Facebook, so im sure you can play it on Facebook(mobile or not). And i can not find how long it took for Candy Crush to become so popular. And i play it sometimes but i must say that its not very addicting, i think its more of something for me to do when i have nothing else to do, like literally nothing else to do
That's a lot of money to be making from one simple app! I haven't spent money on the game. I've barely even played it. I got to level 8, ran out of lives, and rage quit the game. I've always rolled my eyes at people when I see them playing it. I've heard that there's even a rehab for people with a Candy Crush addiction. Really, people? Is this what the world is coming to?
