Candyis
Read full descriptionHide full description
Candyis is a block puzzle with a sweet twist. Drop candy pieces onto a 9×9 board, fill rows and columns to clear them — and pop any group of 3 or more matching candies, match-3 style. Both rules can fire on the same move, so every placement is a little puzzle. SEE IT BEFORE YOU DROP While you drag a piece, everything it would clear glows on the board. No guesswork — plan the perfect combo. CHAIN COMBOS Clear on back-to-back moves to build a streak. Longer streaks mean bigger scores, a rising chime, and power-ups: • Shuffle — refresh your tray when nothing fits • Bomb Candy — blast a 3×3 area clear CLIMB THE WEEKLY LEAGUE Your best game of the week sets your league, from Bronze to Challenger. Every finished week becomes a permanent trophy in your cabinet, and earns Prestige that only ever goes up. (Quiet leagues are topped up with practice bots, clearly marked BOT.) DAILY REASONS TO PLAY • Daily login streak rewards • Three new quests every day, plus a weekly challenge • Unlock new board themes, from soft pastels to dark midnight boards • Weekend event: double score every Saturday and Sunday PLAY YOUR WAY • Play instantly as a guest — no account needed • Sign in to keep your progress on every device • Works offline; your scores sync when you're back online • English, Türkçe, Deutsch, Español, Italiano and العربية • Sound and vibration can be turned off in Settings Candyis is free to play with no purchases. It's supported by ads: an occasional ad between games, plus optional rewarded videos 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.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Candyis at none against Literary Lasso's 1. Candyis also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks) and iOS requirement (16.4 vs 18.6). Literary Lasso's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
