This game is a variation of match-three games such as Bejeweled. Each level has a game board filled with differently colored candies, and might contain obstacles. The basic move of this game is horizontally or vertically swapping the positions of 2 adjacent candies, to create sets of 3 (or more) candies of the same color.

Candy Crush Saga had over 10 million downloads in December 2012 alone. Candy Crush Saga is popular on Facebook having more than 44 million likes on the application page. It is the most popular app on Facebook and the highest-grossing app in the Apple and Google app stores.
