Facebook released its list of 2014 top games as part of its annual Year in Review list, and “Candy Crush Saga†isn’t even in the top 10.
Instead, a similarly colourful puzzle game called “Cookie Jam†is number one.
“Cookie Jam†beat out other wildly popular games such as “Kim Kardashian: Hollywood,†“Klondike,†“Old Vegas Slots,†“League of Angels,†and “Sparta: War of Empires.â€
“Candy Crush Saga’s†cousin, “Candy Crush Soda Saga,†was named the third top game. “Bubble Witch Saga 2,†which is produced by “Candy Crush’s†parent company, King, was named runner-up.
“Cookie Jam’s†dominance of the platform has been swift. The game only launched last May, yet rose to well over 5 million players on Facebook in a matter of months.
It consists of a magical world where players must complete baking-themed puzzles in order to proceed to the next level.
Like “Candy Crush Saga,†players navigate a vertical grid of colourful shapes which players can swap around to progress in the game. Players can also purchase in-app coins and boosters.
The game was developed by SGN (Social Gaming Network), which was by founded by MySpace cofounder Chris DeWolfe.
