How to Play2018-07-23T14:06:20-04:00
  • Round 1 has a gameboard with six different words. Only two go together. Match the two words in 30 seconds or less to score points and move on to the next group. Halfway through, a helper hint will appear, but fewer points are given for a correct answer.
  • Round 2 has three sets of two. The words are revealed briefly and randomly. To win this round, correctly match all the words before time runs out.
  • Round 3 has a game board with nine words. Three of them go together. Match the three words in 30 seconds or less to score points and move on to the next group. Halfway through, a helper hint will appear, but fewer points are given for a correct answer.
  • Round 4 can be tricky so don’t be fooled! Nine items are revealed. To score in this round, match all three sets of three.
How do I sign up for Jam and Candy Connection?2018-06-27T09:11:06-04:00

Jam and Candy Connection our free membership service. We recommend signing up for JaCC as soon as possible so you can get credit for all of the games you play.

How are Scores tallied?2018-06-27T13:57:47-04:00

For each turn, you are given a set amount of time to score points. The more quickly you correctly answer, the more points you receive.

If the helper hint appears —halfway through your time— you get fewer points for a correct answer.

No points are subtracted for an incorrect answer.

How are Scores different from Leaderboards?2018-06-27T09:11:25-04:00

Scores are tracked automatically by Kissin’ Kuzzins and display your basic gameplay stats. Leaderboards show how you rank against other Jam and Candy Connection players on a game-by-game basis.

Does the web app work in a “incognito” or private browser window?2018-06-27T07:42:51-04:00

Private browser windows cannot be used with our games. Our games are built on the Unity Game engine.  To optimize the performance engine, Unity sends non-user specific data about the engine to their servers. Private browsers do not know what data is being sent, so they block content in order  to keep your session from being tracked.

Can I play in real time against other players?2018-06-27T10:38:44-04:00

This is a much-requested feature that we are working on! Stay tuned!

Can I automatically log in?2018-07-23T08:49:21-04:00

Yes, you can. When logging in, click the “Save my info” box. Then click the “Auto log in” box when it appears.
