Whatever you choose to do in Candy Box, however you choose to play it, learn from my mistakes: Save early, save often, and never try to fight a dragon with a deliciously meltable chocolate sword. I forgot about my Candy Box tab, which I'd left steadily churning out candies and lollipops and chocolate bars in the background, and failed to save all that sugary sweet progress I'd made over the past few days. I was ready to tackle the dragon, one of the most challenging foes in the game, when I had to restart my computer. I had a splendidly upgraded Sword of Life, a stockpile of scrolls and potions, and more than my fair share of armor. Unfortunately I may never know what waits at the bottom of the Candy Box. Believe it or not this game even has a rather robust crafting system in place, for those perseverant enough to get to it. The further you get, the more areas become available, and the more interactions open up to you. Keep a sizeable number of potions on hand and make sure to upgrade your sword whenever you're given the chance, because enemies get dangerous quite quickly. Going on adventures (provided you survive them) will earn you equipment, loot, and access to new areas to explore. But as your candy count rises, more options become available. Numbers, letters, some plain-looking buttons. It really doesn't seem like there's much to do at first. It's hard to explain this game without spoiling many of the surprises, so if you want to have a fresh and untainted experience, here's your chance. With that said, if you're already curious about Candy Box, stop reading right here and start playing. Candy Box has become a sensation for good reason, and there's already a sequel on the way.
Even if you're skeptical, you'll likely find yourself willing to look past the ASCII visuals to the solid and original game that lies beneath them. Park your Candy Box in a new tab in your browser and let it simmer, check in on it every now and then to see what's changed and what's opened up for you. The art style (or some would say lack thereof) might be offputting for some, but I'd encourage you to try your best to get past it.
