How much does it cost to build a Candy Crush–style game with modern monetization features?

Building a Candy Crush–style puzzle game today involves more than copying match-3 mechanics. Modern users expect rewarding gameplay, smooth animation, and revenue-generating features. Using a Candy Crush clone or Candy Crush clone script reduces development time by providing a ready-made framework while allowing full customization.

  1. Core Match-3 Mechanics & Level Architecture ($8,000–$18,000)
    This covers drag-and-swap interactions, boosters, obstacles, level mapping, and puzzle logic. Using a Candy Crush clone script helps speed up prototype development.

  2. Monetization System Integration ($6,000–$14,000)
    Modern monetization includes rewarded ads, in-app purchases, energy refill systems, and season passes to boost recurring revenue.

  3. UI/UX + Animation Polish ($5,000–$12,000)
    Players stay because of visuals—smooth transitions, satisfying explosions, sound effects, and themed asset packs.

  4. Backend, Leaderboards & Events ($7,000–$16,000)
    Includes player progression tracking, cloud saves, event management, leaderboard battles, and real-time analytics.

  5. QA Testing, Publishing & Optimization ($3,000–$7,000)
    Bug fixing, performance optimization, app store listing, and cross-platform deployment

 

Total Estimated Range: $29,000–$67,000, depending on customization and scalability.
