The match-3 game’s over 5 million daily players and the hundreds of millions of Apple mobile device users will now be able to play the game anywhere, anytime – ensuring their leaderboards, scores, progress and virtual goods are fully synchronized regardless of where they play.

Candy Crush Saga’s iOS features include:

• Fully synced with Facebook: players can continue their progress, unlock new levels and access virtual goods in both the Facebook and mobile versions
• Ability to unlock delicious charms and boosters to sweeten player’s journey through the Saga
• 125 exciting levels and several modes for players to test their skills against time, limited moves, collecting objects and removing jellies
• Sharp, vivid retina display visuals
• Connect to Game Center to unlock achievements and challenge friends
• Built-in online connectivity to see friends who are also playing
