Candyis is a fresh spin on block puzzle games — place pieces on a 9x9 board, clear rows and columns, and watch same-colored blocks pop together like a match-3 game. Simple to learn, endlessly replayable, and packed with things to chase. HOW TO PLAY - Drag pieces from your tray onto the 9x9 board - Clear full rows, columns, or groups of matching colors - Chain clears together for combo bonuses and bigger scores - Watch for the rare Bomb Candy piece - it clears a 3x3 area instantly CLIMB THE LEAGUES Every point you score pushes you up the rank ladder, from Bronze all the way to Challenger. Check the live leaderboard to see how you stack up against other players. NEVER GET STUCK Earn Shuffle charges by chaining combos, or watch a quick rewarded video anytime you want extra shuffles - there's no limit to how many you can earn. DAILY AND WEEKLY REWARDS Log in daily to keep your streak alive, complete quests for bonus rewards, and take on a standing weekly challenge to unlock exclusive board themes. PLAY YOUR WAY - Jump in instantly as a guest, no account required - Or sign in to save your progress and compete on the global leaderboard - Fully playable offline - your scores sync automatically when you're back online Candyis is free to play, with no purchases required. It's supported by ads (a short ad after each game, plus an optional rewarded video for extra shuffles). Ads are always non-personalized - we never use your advertising identifier or track you across other apps. Simple rules. Deep strategy. One more game, every time.
