Candy Crush Saga and its 10 years

No one can forget that game released by KING 10 years ago He knew how to attract the attention of all those who have a smartphone in hand. And that means it’s been one of the most important hobbies for many, whether it’s the fifth-grade neighbor, our childhood friend, or any family member, regardless of age.

First of all, it should be noted that this is a mobile game that has promoted this called “freemium”. Yes, those games that now flood the Google Play Store with micropayments and that advertising that has served many publishers to generate many benefits.

released on April 12, 2012, which will be released on mobile phones on November 14 of the same year, is a variant of the browser game called Candy Crush. From the simplicity of combining different candies of the same color, with all those visual and sound effects, and its over 10,000 levels (to date), it has managed to stand firm in mobile game stores as one of the more played.

In addition to the fact that if you connect to Facebook you can meet your friends to try to see who can beat the most levels, KING had and still has one of the golden goose of mobile games in his hands.

Como hemos mencionado, Candy Crush Saga impulsó lo freemium gracias a esos extras que se pueden obtener con los micropagos y que consiguen que sea más fácil pasar ciertos niveles; aunque es verdad que se puede superar sin consumir un céntimo de euro.

Cifras para la gallina de oro de KING

At the end of July 2018, the game’s total revenue was $3.91 billion. A stratospheric figure that shows the power he wielded over hundreds of millions of people around the world.

There are other numbers that show what Candy Crush Saga was, and this is it 58% of its players are womenwhile 46% are from Generation X (people born between 1965 and 1981). It can therefore be understood that any member of the family nucleus can be seen playing a game.

Nunca dejaremos de recomendar un juego como este, ya que en este mismo año atesora unas cifras espectaculares con sus más de mil millones de descargas, una puntuación media de 4,6 y sus más de 35,1 millones de reseñas.

Como no, Candy Crush Saga arrastró a los juegos para móviles con algunas secuelas de gran interés y de calidad, al igual que otros estudios sacaron sus juegos puzle para imitar su experiencia. No son pocos los que hemos visto por estos lares, para dejar claro que ha inspirado a cualquiera de las grandes para sacar su “Candy Crush”.

Caramelos, golosinas y todo lo relacionado con lo dulce, ha sido siempre el eje central para KING y esos Candy Crush Soda Saga, Farm Heroes Saga, Candy Crush Jelly Saga, Candy Crush Friends Saga y otros tantos que han sabido mejorar la experiencia para que cientos de millones sigan el periplo de este estudio que acabó en manos de Activision.

Sigue estando en la Google Play Store, y porque no podéis echar una partida ahora, con sus 10 años de existencia con eventos nuevos y todo lo que ha hecho que sea uno de los juegos más importantes para los móviles. Como no, los smartphones impulsaron que un juego de este tipo llegase a millones de personas y así transformar un poco el paradigma de la industria del gaming con ese freemium dicho.
