Candy Crush Addict?

Are you addicted to this game? When you first started playing, did it haunt your dreams? All you could see were those darn candies. And lives, you needed more and more and more in order to win the next level. It was so frustrating, yet you had to keep playing. And then you did it. You beat that level! And the next five you flew through, only to get stuck again. AGH! WHY?!

Yup, me too! I was so addicted to this game, it was always on my mind. I started to play it this past August and I flew up the board. I was like, this is awesome. I love it. But then, I got stuck. Like really stuck. I remember the level well. 140. I had to get 99 of 3 different colors in a limited number of moves. I was stuck....for a long, long time. The game was no longer fun. But then, I finally beat it. And the addiction started all over again.

I started through the next world and just kept getting stuck. It sucked. When did the game get so hard? But I reminded myself, others had beat it, so I could too.

Once beating the world, I kept going up the board. Now, I am stuck. But after getting stuck so much, I decided I was done. Level 208....you've stumped me.

I've put it aside and moved on to Farm Hero Saga. Yeah, by the same makers and just as additive. Ugh!

My addiction to this one is nothing like Candy Crush. I don't dream about it. I don't have to play it all the time. I don't feel the need to text my friends and talk about it.

Yes, true story. I've had text conversations about Candy Crush. I've tweeted about it. It was bad...

Of course, if I beat level 208, because I do still play the game about twice a week when bored somewhere waiting on something, will the addiction come back? I would like to think not. I wasn't crazy about the dream world they added when I realized I was playing the same exact levels I'd already done. Well played Candy Crush Makers! 

So are you addicted? Have you played the game? Or are you avoiding it?
