Bejeweled was a famous match-three puzzle game developed by PopCap Games more than ten years ago. It's still available for play now on some platforms. Even more popular now is this new match-three puzzle game Candy Crush Saga released by King, which joins the growing list of technology companies seeking to go public as reported here.
Candy Crush Saga's gameplay is as simple as Bejeweled, just match three candies to clear them from the board. But this new game app has many more features than Bejeweled and is well integrated with the social power of Facebook.
In addition to the basic play of matching three candies at a time, you are rewarded with a striped bomb when you match four, a chocolate bomb when you match five in one straight line, or a packed bomb for matching five in an "L" or a "T" shape. Switching and matching these bombs give you incredible superpowers to crush more candies on the board.
