Candy Crush: Why Is Everyone Obsessed With It?

By Scoop Team On Oct 17, 2013

Candy Crush Saga: The game that is driving everyone insane!

Let’s be honest, when it comes to games, this shouldn’t be on the top of the list. But for some reason it is an awful addiction, an obsession that does nothing more than drain your battery and your energy.

This “Bejeweled” knockoff game starts off as something fun to do, up until you reach level 29, and then everything gets crazy. Not only are you playing it over and over again to prove to yourself that you can do it, but then you start sending annoying Facebook invites for an extra life, and right there is exactly where you start losing your Facebook friends.

So why is everyone obsessed? Because it’s fun and entertaining? No. Because it caters to our ever exceedingly short attention spans? Not even. Because it functions like any good drug dealer, luring you in with free, quick boosts of time wasting, feel good euphoria only to start charging you (in money or Facebook invites) right when you’re hooked and pining for more lives like a Tramadol addict looking to score.

Genius.
