Patenting the word "candy" is just stupid though, just like worthless Monster Cable trying to do the same with the word "monster".

When I first played CC, it reminded me of bejeweled. All these games are "alike" but I think the issue with CS and CC is the degree of similarity between the two. Speaking of stupid patents... Didn't Madonna try to patent the name way back when?...
