    Also keep in mind that King has been around since 2003 so this isn't some flash in the pan startup success story. They've been making games for quite awhile and were making money from their other games as well, although Candy Crush was certainly their grand slam. But congratz to them! They definitely cashed in their chips at a good time because that Candy Crush golden cow was only going to last so long.
