Bihar, Oct 7: Most people play mobile games merely for entertainment. However, a 19-year-old youth from Bihar has garnered attention by achieving a rare milestone in one such game.


Shubham Kumar from Bihar has earned a place in the International Book of Records by reaching the 22,222nd level in the popular mobile game ‘Candy Crush Saga’.
Shubham Kumar’s Rare Achievement in Candy Crush:
Shubham Kumar, a 19-year-old hailing from Dighwara, Bihar, holds the distinction of being the young person to reach the highest level in Candy Crush Saga.
The International Book of Records has recognized Shubham’s achievement in the category ‘Highest Level Achieved in Candy Crush Saga – Teenager’. According to the organization’s official website, Shubham accomplished this feat at the age of 19 on July 5, 2026.
Reaching Level 22,222 Is No Easy Task:
Candy Crush Saga is one of the most popular puzzle games worldwide. Players must progress through levels by matching candies of the same color to achieve specific goals. As the game advances, the level of challenge and difficulty increases; thus, reaching the 22,222nd level requires constant practice, patience, and concentration. It is for this reason that Shubham’s achievement is garnering attention.
Limited information on education and personal interests:
Typically, the achievements of young people are recognized through academic grades, exam results, sports, or career milestones. However, Shubham Kumar’s achievement lies in a different area of interest. Based on currently available information, details regarding his school, college, academic background, or the amount of time he spent playing the game daily to reach this milestone have not been disclosed.
A message that achievement is possible in areas of personal interest:
Mobile gaming cannot be considered a direct benchmark for academic talent. However, the key aspect of Shubham’s achievement is the persistence shown in pursuing a specific goal until it is attained. Shubham Kumar’s record serves as an example that, beyond textbooks and exam scores, there is scope for unique achievements rooted in the personal interests and skills of young people. Shubham’s achievement of reaching level 22,222 of Candy Crush at the age of 19—thereby earning a place in an international record book—is now garnering attention on social media as well.
