Candy Crush Saga Level 173.

 Hints and tips showing how to pass level 173 Candy Crush Saga without boosters by Cookie

Tips: First switch the coconut wheels, start with the bottom and sides so that the licorice drops down from the top row and when you switch the top coconut wheel it will clear some of the blockers in the middle section. Once this is done you can work in the middle section to clear the blockers and the jelly. Stripes and combos will clear the jelly in the outer sections.

If the level you play is different from the one here it is because the developers have changed it since I played and I have no control over this. Please let me know on our FB group and I will try to change

Where are the yellow candies?

there are no yellows to give you a better chance to make special candies! the key is to just make color bombs, and switch with striped candy..makes it easy to get the 30 striped candies needed to complete the level..

I'm having trouble creating the 30 stripped before the bombs set or i run out of moves. This level barely gives you anything to work with at the beginning by the time you get it going, you have few moves left and still needing several striped candies.

You can beat this level with color bomb/striped candy combos. I got two of those combos and beat it with 9 moves left, too.

IF YOU MIX A CHOCOLATE COLORED BALL CANDY WITH A STRIPED CANDY THAT COLOR SHOULD ALL TURN TO STRIP CANDY WHICH SHOULD GET YOU PRETTY CLOSE TO 30

Awesome tip about the chocolate ball with the striped candies! I had forgotten about that for some reason. Any time you combine a sprinkle ball with a striped, all of that color turns to striped candies. I'll have to try that. Thanks! :)

That tip about the colour bomb with the striped candy is the only one I have found, in any tips at any level, that is really useful. I had forgotten that too.
I was wondering how this level could possibly be done as by the time you clear the middle two bombs. there are only about 20 moves left and about 30 striped candy to get. So far, I haven't come close.

Yeah, choco-ball plus striped candy, that's the ticket!

I find that approaching the 'bombs' from the bottom works better than trying to get stripes on top of them, or beating up on them from the top.

Yeah, I was stuck and thought it was impossible until I realized you needed striped/color bombs. The thing is, I wasted a lot of color bombs just trying to clear colors.

If you are not getting any, just check before you solve a 4 if you can turn it into a 5. I did it first try with the new strategy

That's the only way to win this level, to get a striped/sparkle bomb combination. In fact, it seems to be the key match to get in many of the levels in the 170's. It always helps. Without the sparkle/stripe combination, this level is impossible. A good fraction of the moves is wasted dealing with the bombs, but once you can get the magic combination, the level is easy to win.

I saw a post recently that told how to set the time so I could keep getting lives. So far I haven't been to do this on my PC. Anyone know what I'm talking about??

Two striped plus combo did the trick.

You can set your date and time up on your settings to prevent the "wait" however, it boogers up all of your other apps and iPad purchases. You have to scroll back to the actual date. Then you will notice that your hours to wait will be into the millions....don't do it.....(speaking from experience) dang game!!!!

No all you have to of is when out of lives, simply manually set your time one day ahead. Then open candy crush app but don't play. Just open it until you see 5 lives appear. Next back out after seeing lives appear and go back to settings and put your time "day" back to the current day and exit back out. Open candy crush and wallah! Five lives every time. It works. Just remember after you change day ahead and then open candy crush do not play. That will screw up your timing on the game and you will have to change times around. But it's very quick and easy! Hope that helps!
