Candy Crush Saga Level 2281 tips and video

Hints and tips showing how to pass level 2281 Candy Crush Saga without boosters by Cookie
You have to collect the four popcorns in 35 moves to complete level 2281.
Once you have cleared some of the blockers and opened up the board a little, look for stripes and wraps, especially wraps as these give you 2 hits on the popcorn if you can switch them beside one.
A colourbomb/wrap is great as it is likely to hit at least some of the popcorns. Colourbomb/stripe combos can be good, but just as often I found the stripes went everywhere except where I wanted them, so worth a try but don't expect too much.
Once you get one colourbomb try to save it to switch with a wrap or stripe, but be careful not to let it get eaten by the chocolate and wasted.

You said you did it without boosters ??!?

Lucia said...

Maybe with a magic helmet? -- which is still boosters. I just managed it without after about 20 tries.

I am totally confused!! That video clearly has a color bomb and a stripe and a wrap. Magic helmet is only on mobile devices, and this level is not on mobile devices yet. So, thank you for confirming to me that I need to "booster up" to complete this awful level.

This is disgusting. I quit..I've had it.this is ridiculous. Good bye.

Hoping king offers magic helmet again, that was great help! Low on boosters now.

Same here!

I passed this one with no boosters. I am low on boosters so I reset trying to be able to form a stripe and was lucky and was able to make a color bomb. I made a wrap and did have to use a hammer to make a stripe next to it near bottom to get a good hit at popcorn. After that color bombs fell down and I formed a stripe next to it and it cleared the popcorns.

I finally did it! Took me about 20 tries.
I got a colorbomb early and a wrap.
It cleared the board and then a could get a colorbomb and wrap again. Did it in 15 moves.

I've never had a magic helmet. Followed advice and replayed episodes 1 to 7. Am I missing something?

Lucia help me! How do I get a helmet. Even if it's not available anymore..

Confused about the magic helmet! Really not sure what's going on there. Finding this level very very difficult. Getting nowhere fast. I know I'll pass eventually just keep trying.

Very hard level with the limited moves and aggressive chocolate. Move, shuffle, move, shuffle...sigh...

Posting for luck, I'm tired of playing this level over and over and ......

playing easy levels like 1-7 only works if you get the magic helmet first!! It is a challenge offered the same as the red candy or stripes challenge. Not offered on facebook though. One day you will be collecting sugar drops and pass the level and suddenly you will get a pop up that you now have the magic helmet which means the next level you play (doesn't have to be a new level) you will start with a free sprinkle. As long as you pass the level again you get to keep the free sprinkle. Then after passing a couple of times it moves on to free sprinkle plus stripe/wrap. After passing a couple of times it becomes the strongest helmet which is free sprinkle, stripe/wrap and 3 free moves but you only get to keep it if you pass the level with one life.

The reason the person said to do level 1-7 is to get to the strongest helmet right away. It can be of help but don't let the pressure of passing a level get to you because... even if you don't pass and lose the helmet the very next time you pass a level with one life you get it back.

Not only does this video start with a color bomb, a stripe and a wrapped candy, but the person also uses a hand switch at the 58 second mark. I don't think I got much out of these hints and tips or the video when so many boosters are used to complete the level. This is very poor.

Why isn't this considered a hard level? Very challenging.

Used a chocolate sprinkle and wrap with no luck.

Tried two chocolate sprinkles together with no luck.

Video starts with a chocolate sprinkle, a wrap and a stripe. How is this no booster help?

Must have had a lucky board. Did it first try - no boosters, and still had 7 moves left.

After reading how hard this one was, started with.a color bomb/wrap to clear some space. With one move left, used a lollipop to get the last popcorn. One star, moving on.

Just posting for luck. Although it recommends the check mark booster I just found it to get in the way and block the board. I wish there was a way to call on the boosters when you need them not just from the beginning when they are often useless. Something for King to think about. For those of you asking about the magic helmet - when it's available just play level one 6 times for quickest way to highest helmet. FYI You never lose that level no matter what your score so just make 6 moves and then replay it 6 times. In fact I'm fairly certainly you will always win the first 6 levels no matter what. Wish it were available today but it's not.

Stripe and wrap to start worked for me too. Indy

what's a magic helmet ?

anyway, this is such a rubbish level, I doubt it would help

Unknown said...

The more levels you pass on one try the more boosters you get to play the next game with your magic helmet..also on this level after several tries, I had 2 popcorns to go and matched a striped with a colored bomb , I had a lot of same color as the stripe, game malfunctioned, no action.

Posting for luck. Almost out of boosters..

You can get a magic helmet on pc and android. Just go back and play level 1,2, and the 1 is magic helmet and 2 you get striped and wrapped and level 3 you get 3 extra moves with the magic helmet.

After many unsuccessful attempts, I followed the video and started with a color bomb, a wrapped and a striped. Sailed right through the level, 3 stars and a ton of points. I'm not sure why the player in the video claims "no boosters".....

Would love to be able to choose boosters while in the game, not just before starting... Need some luck please.

This is crazy...

Unknown said...

Hmm I haven't played candy crush in a while and I come back to find that the ability to reset a board without losing a life is no longer available. Would have been nice in this level.

Anonymous said...

Monica, Good to know that the reset is no longer available. I thought I screwed up when I accidenlty synced by tablet with facebook.

This level doesn't even give you a chance to grow a popcorn, let alone get all 4. Very sneaky how the moves fall.

Stupid ridiculous level.

Have tried starting with every booster available and no luck at all. Just another level that requires the luck of the hods before CC will let you pass. Might as well play blindfolded.... it might work better 😡
