Sweet Fever is a match-three puzzle, which is to say it is the shape of game most people have already played a thousand rounds of without ever being taught the rules. A board of candies, a swap of two neighbours, three in a line, and the line disappears while everything above it falls down to fill the gap.
What turns that into a game rather than a fidget is the target. Each level asks for something specific — a quantity of a particular candy, or a layer of jelly cleared from under the board — and gives you a fixed number of moves or a fixed amount of time to do it in. Clearing candies is easy; clearing the right candies before you run out is the puzzle.
It rewards looking before swapping more than most people expect. The board is not random once you know what you need, and the difference between a level cleared with moves to spare and one missed by two is almost always in the first few swaps rather than the last.
Clearing candies near the bottom makes everything above them fall, which often lines up matches you never made yourself. A match at the top of the board changes only the top of the board and gives you nothing for free.
A swap that clears three of a candy you do not need has cost you a move and bought nothing. On a level asking for one particular colour, a smaller match in the right colour beats a bigger one in the wrong one every time.
The strongest moves are the ones that leave the board better arranged than they found it. Before committing, glance at what falls into the gap — a move that creates a new opportunity is worth two that merely score.
Staring at the whole board finds nothing. Picking one candy colour and tracking only that one across the grid finds matches far faster, and it is the habit that separates people who clear levels from people who shuffle.
Three or more of the same candy in a straight line, either horizontally or vertically. Diagonals do not count.
A swap is only allowed when it actually creates a match of three or more. If nothing would line up, the candies stay where they are.
The level ends without the target met, so the constraint is not how long you can keep matching — it is whether you met the objective inside the limit.
