Candy Crush

Candy Crush is evil. Really... 

It all started when my sis ask me to download and install the app to send her lives.... 

It didn't take me very long to get hooked... the first 20 over levels are incredibly easy... this gives you the confidence and momentum but it progressively gets harder, and frustratingly hard... So hard that you will want to destroy the game and throw your phone aside... but before you can do so, you finally managed to clear that stage you had stuck for so long suddenly at last, and for a while, the game is back to its simpler times... and this process repeats...

Me, stucked in the process, i kept playing, occasionally throwing my phone away out of anger... and without knowing, I am over 200 stages into the game... 

If you are a Candy Crush player like me, you will agree that the chocolates and the bombs are evil and those layered cakes are annoying as hell... It is as if those ain't enough to annoy you, the game have this absolute money face idea of seeping money out of your pockets like nobody's business... From time to time, they will kill you off with 1 additional needed move, then they will prompt you to purchase 5 extra moves so that you can clear the stage. Ouch... I mean... Seriously? King... Seriously? It is so tempting, especially when you had spent a whole freaking week trying to get a required combo...

In addition, those bonuses does not come cheap. It cost over $50 for a charm, that allows you to paint stripes on any candy ONCE per game... just once. I am pretty sure nobody's gonna touch that! And this game will cost even more for non-facebook users... Unless you have friends who are willing to help, it will also cost to get to the next episode... 

What game can be more money-thristy than this game...? Evil! pure evil...

Out!
