Read full description

Candy Cracker is a relaxing match-3 puzzle game for iPhone and iPad: swap neighboring candies to line up three of a kind, craft striped, wrapped and rainbow specials, and combine them into board-clearing chain reactions across 1000 levels. It is made for people who want a calm puzzle they can pick up anywhere. The whole game works offline โ€” no internet connection, no account, no sign-up โ€” and there are no forced ads: videos are always optional and always rewarded, never an interstitial, never a banner, never during a level. Every candy color also has its own shape, so the board stays readable if you are colorblind. FEATURES โ€ข 1000 levels across four goal types: score runs, jam clearing, cookie deliveries and candy orders โ€” plus mixed levels that combine them โ€ข Special candies and combos: striped blasts, wrapped explosions and the board-clearing rainbow candy โ€ข Tricky blockers: ice, cages and sticky goo that spreads if you ignore it โ€ข Boosters when you need them: candy hammer, free switch and head starts โ€ข Daily bonuses and play streaks with growing rewards โ€ข 33 achievements and Game Center leaderboards for your best scores โ€ข Colorblind-friendly: every candy color has its own shape โ€ข No forced ads โ€” videos are always optional and always rewarded โ€ข No account needed.
