Candy Chain Master

How to Play Candy Chain Master

Mastering the art of the candy chain is simple to learn but deeply strategic. Here are the core mechanics:

• Click and Drag: Instead of swapping, you'll click on a candy and drag your cursor or finger to connect it with adjacent candies of the same color. You can connect horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.
• Create Chains: Link at least three matching candies to clear them from the board. The longer the chain, the more points you score and the faster you'll charge special boosters.
• Complete Objectives: Each level has a unique goal, such as scoring a certain number of points, clearing specific "Chocolate Blocker" tiles, or collecting a quota of a certain candy color within a limited number of moves.
• Unleash Boosters: Creating long chains of 7 or more candies will generate a powerful booster on the board. Activate these by tapping them or including them in a new chain to create massive, screen-clearing effects.

The Candy Connoisseur's Codex: Your Questions, Answered

What makes Candy Chain Master different from other match-3 games?

The core difference is strategy. While most games rely on simple swaps and lucky cascades, this game is all about the "chain." You have direct control over creating long, winding paths of matching candies. This mechanic rewards foresight and planning over random luck, creating a much deeper and more satisfying puzzle experience where you are the architect of your own success.

I'm stuck on a level with Chocolate Blockers! Any tips?

Chocolate Blockers are a classic challenge! They can't be moved and will spread to an adjacent tile if you don't clear at least one blocker on your turn. The key is to make matches right next to the chocolate. This will chip away at and eventually destroy the blocker. Prioritize these matches, and try to set up a powerful booster, like a Bomb or a Rocket, to clear out a large cluster of them at once.

How can I get higher scores and achieve three stars?

High scores in Candy Chain Master are all about efficiency and epic combos. Focus on creating the longest chains possible instead of just simple 3-candy matches. Longer chains not only give more points outright but also create powerful boosters. Using your moves wisely to set up a massive chain reaction that clears a huge portion of the board is the ultimate path to a three-star victory. If you enjoy this type of strategic thinking, you'll find many other fun games that reward smart planning.

What are the best boosters to use in the game?

It depends on the level's objective, but the "Rainbow Swirl," created by a chain of 10+ candies, is arguably the most powerful. When you connect it to any single candy, it clears every candy of that color from the entire board! The "Comet Crush," from our latest update, is fantastic for surgically removing a specific row and column that's blocking your progress.
