Popping Candies

Popping Candies is a match-3 candy puzzle game. You know how this works. That is exactly why it works.

You swap candies, you make lines of three, and the board rewards you with a small explosion of sugar. Then it asks you to do it again with fewer moves.

How to Play Popping Candies?

Swap two neighboring candies to make a row or column of three or more of the same color, and they pop. Each level gives you a target, such as reaching a score, collecting certain candies or clearing jelly, and a limited number of moves to hit it. Run out of moves and you lose a life. You start with five, and they refill over time.

Bigger matches build special candies. Four in a row makes a Striped Candy, which clears a whole row or column. Five in a T or L shape makes a Wrapped Candy, which explodes and clears the area around it. Five of one color in a line makes a Color Bomb, which clears every candy of whatever color you swap it with. Later levels throw chocolate, jelly and other blockers at you, and boosters can buy extra moves when a level gets stubborn.

Tips and Tricks:

  • Build specials on purpose: A planned Color Bomb beats three random matches every time.
  • Work from the bottom: Matches low on the board cause more cascades above them.
  • Read the objective: A huge score is useless if the level wanted jelly cleared.

What Are the Controls for Popping Candies?

  • Swap candies: click and drag a candy onto its neighbor, or click one then the other
  • On mobile: swipe or tap to swap
  • Boosters: click the booster, then the candy you want it used on

No keyboard is needed, and Popping Candies plays the same on iOS, Android and desktop.
