7. Candy Crush Soda Saga

Total Score: 10

Android Rank: 7

iOS Rank: 7

This is the sequel to one of the most-played games in history. Candy Crush Soda Saga ranks 7th in our list of most successful mobile games of all-time and it comes from King, one of the developers that has pushed the boundaries of mobile games and was eventually bought by Activision Blizzard Inc. (NASDAQ:ATVI) for $5.9 billion. Piper Jaffray gaming analyst Michael Olson likes the King acquisition for Activision Blizzard, expecting advertising in King games to be one of the company’s leading drivers of incremental revenue growth in the years to come. He expects that figure to hit $1 billion by 2020. Olson has a $51 price target and ‘Overweight’ rating on Activision Blizzard Inc. (NASDAQ:ATVI)’s shares.

Similar to King’s other big game, you go from level to level creating combos by switching bottles and candies in Candy Crush Soda Saga. You have to match three for regular explosions, and four or more for special candies. There are fun game modes available and over 140 levels to play. Your game is synced with your account so you can switch between devices quite easily.
