How to Play Candy Burst
Candy Burst is a classic match-3 puzzle game. Swap adjacent candies to create rows or columns of 3 or more matching colors. Matched candies disappear, new ones fall from the top, and chain reactions earn bonus multiplier points!
Special Candies
- Striped (horizontal) — Match 4 in a row. Clears the entire row when activated.
- Striped (vertical) — Match 4 in a column. Clears the entire column when activated.
- Bomb ★ — Match 5 in any direction. Clears a 3×3 area around it when activated.
Game Modes
- Unlimited — No time limit. Relax and strategize at your own pace.
- 30s Timer — Score as many points as possible before the clock runs out!
Scoring
Longer matches score more points. Chain reactions (cascades) multiply your score — the more cascades in one move, the bigger the multiplier. Match 3 = 10 pts, match 4 = 40 pts, match 5 = 90 pts. Chain multipliers stack up to huge bonuses!
Tips & Strategy
- Set up chain reactions by planning moves ahead — let gravity do the work.
- Aim for bottom-of-board matches; they cause more cascades as candies fall.
- Special candies created near each other can be swapped to trigger massive combos.
- In Timer Mode, prioritize quick matches over perfection — speed wins!
