Gameplay

Candy Crush Soda Saga is a spin-off of the original Candy Crush Saga game. The difference between the games is that Candy Crush Soda Saga’s aim is to fill up the board with soda. To do this, you need to match bottles with candy and the soda will rise every time you do.

Just like Candy Crush Saga, this is a typical match-3 game but you can clearly tell that it’s had an upgrade.

Graphics

For example, the graphics have definitely had an upgrade. The candy is generally more detailed, and the background has a lot more detail to it. The color scheme is still the same though – it’s colorful, vibrant and has a family-friendly vibe to it.

On top of this, there is a scoreboard in the game that shows you how well you’re doing in comparison to other players.

Music & Sounds

Just like Candy Crush Saga, the game’s music and sounds are very fun and upbeat. Like how I was getting annoyed with a man’s voice constantly saying “sweet”, this game repeatedly say “juicy” and it’s annoying. Again, there is a button available to turn it off.

Controls

The controls are the exact same as the original game, they consist of dragging the icons to match them in groups of 3. Again, you really don’t have to focus on it and it’s an easy game to play when you have a few minutes spare. There are also power-ups you can use at the bottom of the screen to help you along with the game. To begin with, you have the lollipop power up and it crashes any candy you tap.

The Verdict

Candy Crush Soda Saga is definitely an upgrade from the original game, but it’s still nothing special. Again, I can totally understand why people are obsessed with it – it’s addicting, fun looking and extremely competitive if you log in with Facebook. But for me, I really can’t see myself keeping this due to how similar it is to other match-3 games.
