    It doesn't magnify by itself, you are inadvertantly hitting a shortcut. Maybe Smart Zoom (double tap on the top of a magic mouse). There are several shortcuts available, pay more attention to what you did just before it happened and post back.

    I don't have Candy Crush but the first thng to do is check the documentation for the key that magnifies the screen in Candy Crush
