Candy crush, a game that got popular in an insane way, brings 600,000 USD to its developers every single day. The game has become one of the most downloaded apps on smart phones and its yearly profits are estimated to be 230 million dollars. This means that if candy crush remained popular for 5 more years it will bring one billion dollars to the company that developed it.

When it comes to candy crush people will tell you that they like it because its interesting, challenging and entertaining but show them any of the games that have a very similar concept to it and ask them why they preferred candy crush over them and they won't be able to answer.
Lets first agree on a concept. The reason a games becomes popular is because of the emotions it arouses in people and the psychological experience that lets them go through. Here are some of the reasons that made candy crush highly addictive:
For the first instance Candy crush might seem like a game that is interesting because of its game play but when you look deeper you will discover that game play itself is nothing more than some psychological feelings that people experience while playing a game.
The previous reasons might not be all the ones that made candy crush popular as there might be some additional ones but the conclusion i want you to come up with is that once you understand how your brain interacts with the world you will get to know why you sometimes become addicted to certain things.
