King's IPO back in 2014 was a disaster, after all. This success led to the studio recently being acquired by Activision-Blizzard for a rather princely sum despite concerns that it's nothing more than a flash-in-the-pan, one trick pony. Candy Crush Saga is arguably the most famous and most played mobile game ever released, and that orange and yellow logo is synonymous with gaming on the go. Through the first quarter of 2016, King has had three titles in the top 15 grossing games on the Apple App Store and Google Play in the US. It's not a new concept and King certainly didn't invent it, but the young Swedish company has undoubtedly acquired more success from the formula than anyone else on mobile devices. Despite the broad array of fantastical names and exotic themes, each one is, at its core, a match-three game in which blocks are switched to create lines of uniform colours. You know what a King game looks like by now.
