Candy Crush Legend: India's Sweetest Puzzle Sensation

What is Candy Crush Legend?

Candy Crush Legend is India's adapted version of the global match-three puzzle phenomenon, specifically optimized for Indian players. This sweet-themed game challenges players to match colorful candies in rows of three or more to complete levels, earn points, and unlock special power-ups.

While sharing core mechanics with the original Candy Crush, the Indian version incorporates:

• Local festivals and holidays as special events
• Hindi and regional language support
• Culturally relevant candy designs (like laddu and jalebi shapes)
• Payment methods popular in India (UPI, Paytm)

Gameplay Mechanics

Core Matching System

The fundamental gameplay remains identical to classic match-three games:

1. Swap adjacent candies to create horizontal or vertical lines of three or more identical candies
2. Achieve level objectives (collect specific candies, reach target scores, clear obstacles)
3. Progress through increasingly challenging levels with unique layouts

Special Candies and Boosters

Indian players love these game-changing elements:

• Wrapped Candy: Created by matching five candies in an L or T shape. Explodes in a 3x3 area.
