Cats and Candies

Cats and Candies is a straightforward match-3 with a clear goal on every board: line up three or more candies, clear the amount the level asks for, and watch a cat get its treat. The early boards ease you in, but obstacles start blocking tiles soon enough that a random swap stops being good enough - you start looking for the match that clears a blocker, not just any match.

The 60 levels are split into three sets - Wooden, Stone, and Fire - and each one raises the difficulty and adds its own hazards on top of the last. Bigger combinations trigger stronger bonus candies, which is often the only way to clear a board once the obstacles pile up, so it pays to hold off on an easy match if a bigger one is one move away.

How to play

Swap two adjacent candies to line up three or more of the same kind in a row or column, clearing them from the board. Match the specific candies a level asks for and clear any obstacles blocking the grid to complete it. Lining up four or more candies creates a stronger bonus piece - save these for boards where a single match will not clear enough space.
