Re: Is Anyone Still Playing Candy Crush?

I quit last Spring at level 690. Never payed one cent to play. Got that far for free, but coudnt get past there so that was it for me, I gave up!

@gardensla: Although some of the levels are timed, most of them are not. I don't care too much for the timed levels either.


@handygal2 @gardensla  I don't like the timed levels either. I don't know how they think you can do that so fast. I think they just eventually let you win. Some levels I have won I have no idea how I won. LOL!!!

Re: Is Anyone Still Playing Candy Crush?

I've been stuck on level 315 for 6 months - I quit! I refuse to pay for extra boosters, etc. although my friends are on levels beyond my imagination -- no way they got there without spending a few $$$!

 

i used to play jackpot party too - those free coins went so fast I quit this too.

 

Now, I read -- free books from library!😉

@bichon mom: I used to play Farm Heroes. Then l reached an annoying, impossible level-- one where the "rotten crops" take over the board. l eventually gave up, lol.

Re: Is Anyone Still Playing Candy Crush?

I had never even heard of Candy Crush, but when I had my concussion, which was very serious (head with a direct hit to cement), one of my therapists suggested that I play.  I was really concerned about my memory and it was felt that this would be a nice addition to some of the things that I was already doing.

 

I finished the game several months ago, probably back in September or October, but still play twice a day to get boosters.  I am just waiting for new levels.

 

For those who have memory issues, or even if you don't and want to work on your memory, this was a real life saver for me.

The next time that I hear salt and ice together, it better be in a margarita!

Yes, I'm on 1710. I have come to dislike it, but I can't stop. I hate the timed levels because the matches don't physically move fast enough and I've even written to King to complain about this.

 

I also play Pet Rescue and Alphabetty - really like those.

Candy Crush is not timed, other than a few levels, but most are not.  I prefer untimed games too, but the few that are on Candy Crush have never been a problem for me and they don't turn up often at all.

 

To answer, the OP, yes - I still play Candy Crush, and a few other games too. I find them relaxing, and since I'm often in "hurry up and wait" situations, they're a great way to pass the time.
