The Rise and Fall of Bubble Witch Saga: A Facebook Gaming Giant

Bubble Witch Saga, a popular bubble-themed puzzle game on Facebook, will no longer be available to play from October 2nd. However, fans of the game can still enjoy new tricks in Bubble Witch 2 Saga and Bubble Witch 3 Saga, which are filled with new levels every week.

According to data from AppData, Zynga's CastleVille lost 1.4 million users, dropping its total monthly active user count to 17.8 million. Meanwhile, CityVille, another popular game on the site, has lost nearly 4 million monthly users and is now down to 24.3 million.

In a surprising twist, Bubble Witch Saga's audience of 19.1 million monthly active users is actually bigger than most clones in terms of audience size. In fact, it takes inspiration from classic arcade titles like Puzzle Bobble/Bust-A-Move.

For those who are looking for more bubble-themed games to play on Facebook, Bubble Safari, released recently by Zynga, has 29.5 million players, making it the only bubble game with more users than Bubble Witch Saga.

Bubble Witch 3 Saga is a brand new game in the popular series and features Stella the Witch, who needs help from players to defeat the evil Wilbur in this exciting adventure. The game involves traveling through different realms and bursting as many bubbles as possible in this bubble shooting puzzle game.

It's worth noting that Bubble Witch Saga was one of the first games of its kind to make it big on Facebook, and its popularity has contributed to the trend of bubble-themed puzzlers still going strong on the social network.
