Yet is amazing how King games are cr*p but all of them are incredibly famous. That's my point exactly. Puzzle games require Trial n' Error and the game developing studios know this. That's why they strike us at that very same point; take away our option of Trial n' Error from us which leaves the stupid luck factor.

I played the firt Cabdy Crush game until Level 50 where I found out the only way to 3 star these leevls properly is to get a very specific set of combos that help you clear the level in few moves. that's not startegy or thought-process, just sheer dumb luck. Sadly, most top developing studios have started this lives (or energy) system in general (even in racing games).
