I have been playing Candy Crush Saga for a long, long time and I would be lying if I said I hadn't quit at least fifty times. I just made it into the 500+ levels and things are trickier; there are bombs, replicating chocolates and tasks to deal with but on the same token you do get to spin the bonus booster wheel once a day. If you have friends on Facebook that play you can send them lives and occasionally have the chance to send them boosters (free).
The game is free to play and you can get away without having to buy boosters or lives so it isn't as cash-driven as some of the other Facebook games. You get five lives to play with and if you end up dying you will have to wait for the clock to regenerate them or ask friends for them.
The same thing applies to tickets to get the higher levels. There have been a couple of times that my addiction got the best of me and I ended up spending some of the gold bars to avoid having to wait for the tooth fairy to bless me. It’s a way to pass the time but I can see how people get extremely addicted to the game and end up spending a ton of money buying the booster packs.
If you like puzzle games this is worth checking out; the more friends you have the more lives you can get from them when you are on levels that go by in the blink of an eye. I have no idea how many levels there currently are but I have the feeling that they are going to keep making them as long as there are people willing to pay for the in-game perks and boosters.
Do you play Candy Crush Saga?
Have you ever been addicted to online games?
Would you spend money on boosters?

It's the only game I play and I am beyond level 1000. It has taken me over 2 years to get there!
I did think I must be getting near the end, then I heard they just keep adding more levels. I can tell you that the levels get harder, but then strangely easier and eventually you don't have to wait when you have completed a section. It used to frustrate me to have to wait 3 days or so to continue. I never pay for any help, so it has often been a waiting game for me. Not so much now, as I said.

Yes, I do play candy crush saga. It's fun and it really relaxes my mind when I play it in the office. When you reach higher levels you will no longer need tickets, however, you will still have to wait for the time after you have consumed your 5 lives. I'm already at level 1370, taking time to move up since I do not have much time to play on this game these past few days. I was addicted to before, played on my cellphone and laptop after each 5 lives were used. But never had i used my hard earned money nor my credit card to purchase boosters. They give it for free now with the daily spin and the bonus objective thing.

I use to play it a lot also, until I got to this one level and couldn't beat it. LOL So, I stopped playing it because I got tired of trying to beat it. LOL I do think candy crush is a very fun game though. It has it's ups and downs though.
