Candy World Saga

Candy World Saga gives its board a reason to exist. Two children, Mark and Julie, have been set a candy puzzle by their grandfather, who has promised them plenty of sweets once they finish it. Your part is to help them by matching the candy tiles.

Two instructions stand out in what the developer says. First, speed: the tiles are to be matched as fast as you can manage. Second, care: the developer warns that if you do not make your moves correctly, the game ends. Between them they set the tone, quick but not careless. Quests are also listed among the features.

The game came from Android, and the frame is a tall portrait one, 1080 by 1920. On a phone you touch and swipe; on a computer you left-click and swipe with the mouse. The developer also notes the small file size and simple controls.

On a touch screen, touch a candy tile and swipe it to move it. With a mouse, hold the left button on a tile and swipe in the direction you want it to go. Match the candy tiles as quickly as you can to help Mark and Julie through their grandfather's puzzle, taking care with each move so the game does not end.

The developer stresses both speed and accuracy, and warns that a wrong move can end the game. So the useful habit is to check a swipe will make a match before you make it, then keep up the pace once you have spotted one. Quests are part of the game, so watch for them.
