The Community is a great place to get to know each other, but what about knowing the people behind the magic of the Kingdom?
We thought it would be a great idea to share some of the personalities from behind the scenes and meet fantastic Kingsters!
These are the minds that create all this delicious universe: From Game Artists, Level Designers, Content Specialists, Game Producers and Customer Support Agents - all of them are included, so come and meet the team.
This week, we sat down with @CandyCrushinator, our talented Game Designer for Candy Crush Friends and here is what we got to know! Please come and say hi!
"Hello Everyone I’m a Senior Game Designer on Candy Crush Friends Saga!
It’s my job to ensure that you all have fun playing the game. The designer is the advocate of the player, if I’m doing my job right then you’re having fun. So basically it’s the best job that you can have 😊 …perhaps I’m biased though… I have worked on a bunch of features that you may have seen including the Yeti Santa, Nutcracker King of Hearts, Olivia and Bubblegum Troll events. I also work on our “collection” team trying to make sure that your candy surprises and everything related to them are as sweet as possible".
- Tell us 3 funny things about yourself
. I’m an extrovert in a studio and country full of introverts but I’m going to slowly convert them all to my hyperactive ways
. When I was 5 years old I liked to climb a lot…but I wasn’t so good at climbing down, so I would jump. I went to the ER 4 times in 4 weeks that summer. When my mom went in a few days after I was in there for the 4th time to get something that we had accidentally left there. All of the nurses said hi and asked how I was doing…
- If you were a King game, which one would you be? If I was a game at King game I would be Candy Crush Friends Saga of course because I’m sweeter than ever!
- If you were a candy? I would be a chocolate covered pretzel. The perfect combination of sweet and salty
- If you were a game character? I would be Olivia…with far fewer tentacles. I’m always trying to help people that are in a jam.
- If you were a video game? I would be "Octodad 2: Dadliest Catch" because deep down I’m an octopus trying to be a father.
- What's your favourite food? My favorite food is Chicago Style Deep Dish Pizza.
- Is there something that you would like to tell our players?
We work hard to make the game as fun as possible and while we do read the forums we can’t always act on feedback right away because there’s so much to do. So keep calm and candy on!

That is Chicago Style Deep Dish Pizza from (in my humble opinion) the best Chicago Style Deep Dish Pizza Restaurant in the world. Every time I go home to the Windy City, Lou's is stop #2 (after we visit my parents of course). -
Hello @CandyCrushinator🤗
Thank you for participating in the Interview and sharing some interesting details with us
I am loving all the new features that are popping up in the game. The more we go up, the more interesting features.. of course, some obstacles are hard too!! But, what fun is it if we just keep beating the levels -- Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy... there should be challenge as well as fun! I am loving the game more and more - day by day!!
My daughter is a huge fan for Chicago Deep Dish pizza... whenever we go there, she wants to have it!! But only to her dissatisfaction, wherever we go, that is not "the" authentic Deep Dish Pizza
Thanks a lot for sharing the restaurant. Next time, when we are there, we will definitely take her there
Thank you once again for sharing your thoughts! Have a wonderful weekend ahead 🤗 -
Hi @CandyCrushinator it's great learning more about you. I think what you are doing for the players in the community is fantastic. I sure hope that they appreciate you dropping in to respond to them. I look forward to seeing your messages! Whose idea was it to make the Bubblegum Troll blow bubbles from his backside?

Hello from one more introvert 🙈 @CandyCrushinator It's great to see you here again and read more about you 😊 I will use this opportunity to thank you for all your effort during the BGT event and @QueenMia's absence. It was great to see you interacting with players! Enjoy your weekend 🤗

Hello @CandyCrushinator - I loved finding out more about you. I have seen you out and about in the community. Sounds like your childhood was a bit similar to my husbands - they would greet his Mom by name whenever they showed up to the ER. Thankfully you both survived your adventure filled childhoods and are around today.
I love Candy Crush Friends and Olivia is one of my favorite characters. I love to have her help free her fellow Octopi (not sure if that is the correct word for multiple octopus 😆). Keep those fun events coming - they are awesome - many thanks! 😊🤗💕
Next time I'm in the Windy City I will definitely check that place out! -
