Candy Crush is one of those games you’ll still hear about in
2050, because at that point you’re going to be a lot older than you are right
now and older people tend to lean towards the older games,
because,“this new
generation has the crappiest games. What is this floating air picture,
anyways?”
(“It’s a hologram, Grandma.”)
Candy Crush doesn’t look like it’s going to disappear off
the Earth any time soon, because it’s linked to Facebook, and once you make a
Facebook, you never delete it. Here’s to never-ending “life” requests, because
five lives will not help you conquer the candy universe. Especially, since they take about six hours to fill.
Another sign it’s not really disappearing is because the
developers are always making new levels. There’s all these sweet names, like Lemonade Lake and Chocolate Mountains and
PepperMint Palace. They’re never going to run out, probably. We’ll have to wait
until 2050 to see.
Maybe this is a controversial topic and people will come
after me. “You’ve never even played it!”
they’ll yell as I run for my life, preferably in the wind.
Oh, but I HAVE. A lot, actually.
I first got the game and played it like, “whoo! So much fun!! Look how easy this is
!! Crushing jellies! Crushing candies!! Crushing my dignity!!” I got around Level 85? Somewhere like that.
At that point, I was sick of waiting an eternity for my lives to replenish and
I didn’t have Facebook to request
them, so I started going into the phone’s settings and changing the date to days ahead, and then changing it back. Clever, isn’t it.
NO.
I’m still slightly bitter about it.
After my lives would replenish, I would reverse the clock
back to the original date, but doing THAT, doubled
the wait time, since I travel too far ahead in time.
In conclusion, I had to wait 4 years for my next lives to
replenish, so I deleted the app and reinstalled, hoping it would fix the
glitch.
ALL MY PROGRESS WAS GONE.
Of course, this was to be expected, except I didn’t expect
the expected, which led to an un-expecting affair.
(Sorry.)
SO, I STARTED AGAIN.
I know, I’m ashamed of myself as well. But I got to Level
100 and stopped there.
I am still there, and that was a year and a half ago.
The Saga Discontinues.
