Even now both Candy Crush and Pokémon GO are both in the top three mobile games by daily revenue - https://thinkgaming.com/app-sales-data/

But it is not the juggernaut it was at it's prime. I'll never forget that 4 to 6 day stretch when you would watch random people playing it on their phones. In parks, malls, supermarkets, Costco! It seemed like everywhere I went there would be at least 6 people playing it.

I don't think I ever experienced something like that before. A really visual, tangible fad.

I miss those days, but I am so glad they happened. One of the most important days in my life.
