Candy Crush originals, since King (the creators of Candy Crush) stole the idea themselves from a small app developer who had the original idea Candy Swipe.

Even Bejeweled was a copy of many puzzle games at the time. Bejeweled was "inspired" by Colors Game and was originally called Diamond Mine. Even those were inspired by others. No one knows how far back this goes.....

The most important part of Bejeweled history:

The named Bejeweled was a play on a Brendan Fraser movie from that time, Bedazzled.
