DeNA takes on King's Candy Crush Saga with new Cupcake Carnival match-three puzzler

DeNA has just released a new iOS game called Cupcake Carnival.

A match-three puzzle game, Cupcake Carnival appears to have been launched by DeNA as a not-so-subtle swipe at King’s phenomenal Candy Crush Saga:

Tired of the same ol’ candy?? Well then, hop on board the Cupcake train with Cupcake Carnival! Cupcake Carnival is a delicious match 3 puzzle game that’s like nothing else you’ve ever tried before! Watch out though, this game’s a true puzzler, where the customer is king and the cakes will leave you drooling for more!

Of course, in lieu of colorful confectioneries, Cupcake Carnival features colorful cupcakes as the objects to be matched. And in the game, they have to be matched in order to satisfy the sweet tooth of cupcake-crazy customers.
