If you ever play this game you will ruin your life, every time I close my eyes I see coloured pieces of candy and try to match them up, my eyes are square from lack of sleep and staring at my Ipad and the only break I get is when I run out of lives and start rocking backwards and forwards
I am warning everyone this game will take over your life, I have known someone to sell their home just to be able to afford more lives to feed his addiction and avoid going cold turkey and one woman is said to have slept with me in order to pay for her habit while playing the game at the same time!
Please be carful out there and thanks for reading, my 20 mins are up and im now going to play again...

Did you mean candy crush? I've not touched the game so far, didn't know the addiction could be so bad!

Thanks for the warning.
I got the impression it was a bit like that so I've been staying well away. :P

I play it most days.
Not even slightly bothered if i don't get to the next level or run out of lives. Nothing more than something to pass ten minutes while I'm on my laptop.

its probably candy crush or some kind of new drug game-ripoff.
its a popular game, yes, but that doesnt mean you get auto-addicted after a while. *captain obvious*
and, those extreme example are useless to point out, there are always some addicted individuals out there doing crazy stuff.
and smoogie, if that post is written in all seriousness and you play that game while having following sympthomes, then you have an serious addiction:
1) lack of sleep
2) always thinking about this game (even at work)
3) playing the game, even when its not about fun
4) no control about game sessions
5) angry when some interrups you

It is Candy Crush lol but some versions might be called Sugar Crush (as 'candy' is an American term) but it seems to be popular lately

It's just a rip off of Bejeweled.

This.
Also i got to like level 30 something and then deleted it. No biggie.
I think anyone that gets addicted to a game as simple, untactical, unrewarding, monotonous and repetitive as candy crush (or other bejewelled rip offs) leads a seriously, seriously boring life.

Which is why today I put my Ipad to one side and went out for the day. No withdrawal symptoms yet but it does seem to appeal to the 'stay at home, always one Facebook' types which is a life I try to avoid lol
