For whatever reason when this level was played on my phone the scores were very low. I finished the level 3 times but the scores were nowhere near the minimum score required yet when played on laptop the scores tallied to the minimum in no time at all. Might be a bug perhaps??

Anonymous said...

I'm having the same issue on my Android, Mz Shared Calories. It seems like there's a bug.

me too, completed the collection 3 times on android only able to scored 118000-130000/240000

Same for me :/

Candy crush please fix this bug ive played this game on my pad an can't beat the level cause the score is too low.

Anonymous said...

I have the exact same issue. I have finished it several times on my phone but the score is usually only around 130,000 (even if I have quite a few moves left).
So I noticed the following: If I play via Facebook on the computer and I do the whole mixing of two sprinkled candies in order to get rid of all the bombs on the sides, the score jumps to something between 150,000 and 400,000 (I have yet to find out what causes what). On the phone, however, using the exact same strategy, it never goes to more than around 75,000 after the mix. (Interestingly enough, sometimes it's like the low score on the computer as well and I am always doing the same thing, but most of the time it's around 200,000 after the mix as opposed to the 75,000 on the phone). Unfortunately I have not beaten the level when playing on the computer, only on the phone, but there it's IMPOSSIBLE to achieve the score, absolutely impossible.

Same with me too. I don't mind a level being very difficult but I can barely reach half the required score of 240,000 even with a good run of special candies.

I FINALLY beat this level on my phone, but I had the same problems!

Anonymous said...

^ wow, you actually beat it on the phone? That's amazing!
I am one of the Anons above (15 July, 11:26 PM) and I now managed to beat the level while playing on the computer. Got a one star score with 266000 points (previously I'd had over 700,000 f.ex. - NO idea how this is possible when the phone max has been 120,000 or so - but couldn't finish) and am pretty sure I am never touching that level again...

Frustration, Frustration!...I have passed this level several times already...wtf is happening? I collected everything that was asked for and nowhere does it say we need to exceed a certain number of points. Candy Crush Saga fix this issue!!

Anonymous said...

I'm having the same issue on my android device, I've probably finished the level 10 or so times, but have never reached 200k+

Anonymous said...

Wtf its impossible to score that!!

Unknown said...

I have "beaten" this level 10+ times on the iPhone, but the absolute highest score I've achieved is 153,000. So of course that caused me to fail the level. So frustrated! I went through a similar issue with level 285. It turned out to be impossible to beat on the phone but once I googled it and found out, I beat it instantly on FB. Guess I have to take that route with this ridiculous level! CCS gods eventually fixed the issue with level 285. HOPEFULLY they'll fix this issue soon because I used up like 50+ reserve lives and all for nothing!

Anonymous said...

I feel so much better knowing others are having the same issue I've completed the level numerous times but nowhere close to minimum score. I'll have to try on computer to see if this helps

Unknown said...

Yeah there's no way this isn't a glitch... even with a near perfect run with like 15 bombs and 20 moves remaining... I only got 150k+ out of 240k

Anonymous said...

Just go play the online version for this level, you can easily score 240,000+ with few moves. This is definitely a bug for mobile version.

Kittikatt60 said...

Had the same problems on level 285 & now this on my iPhone. Thought I was just loosing it. Thanks for everyone's posts.

Is anyone else not receiving friend's 3 xtra moves? Haven't been getting them for wks on my iPhone & no resolve in rebooting the phone or the last candy crush update this wk.

Thanks again everybody

Unknown said...

The friends 3x extra moves I've noticed it gives them to me on levels I don't need. Whatever level it's being used for, it puts a pink bow/ribbon above the level. Any time I've used it and it doesn't show up on the level I'm using it for, I notice the bow levels below where I'm currently at. So frustrating: I hate having to get on the PC to beat this level because every time I do, I seem to lose all the extra lives I have stored in my messages. So I've now been stuck on this level for days. And Kittikat60 - I too had the same issue on level 285. 285 and 391 are the ONLY levels I've ever googled after realizing there might be a problem, and both times I've learned it's unbeatable on the iPhone. Grrrrrr -_-

I had this problem on my Nexus 7 & had to complete this level on a pc. No matter whet combos I used I'd only ever get 100-150k points. Only level I've had to complete on a pc because of a bug on phone/tablet app. Finished level 395 & waiting on next update now.

Anonymous said...

I on the other hand haven't been able to pass because I don't get enough yellow candies. lol

Anonymous said...

I can't get enough points on my andriod. I also have maxed out in the 150's. Latest update makes it so you can't see who is giving you a life or asking for one. Anyone else notice this?

Anonymous said...

i beat this level just now on my samsung note. i got some tips from my brother. the first step to succeeding is to combine 1 pillow and 1 stripe candy very early say 6-8 moves into the level without touching any of the disco balls at the bottom. at the middle part of the level, you need at least 1 disco ball and stripe candy combo and another pillow+stripe combo. lastly, you need to finish the level 5 moves ahead. bloody difficult this level

Unknown said...

Any chance that Candy Crush will change the program so that you get just as many points using a mobile device as you do when using a PC?

I play on my IPad....but if I am not going to get the same points...I might as well quit playing.

Unknown said...

Does it make a difference if you play through Facebook as opposed tp using the app on a mobile device?

If playing through Facebook gets the same points as a PC, it means I can keep playing.

I have completed all the levels so now I am going back to make all the levels 3 stars, so points are important.

Thanks.... I have only been doing this since May .... So I am a beginner...

Anonymous said...

Lol you're too funny...pillow and disco ball candies. I call them striped, wrapped and sprinkled.

Anonymous said...

I had the same problem on my iphone. Completed the 3 required number of candies but points at 120K. Its been like 5 times already...

Melissa said...

Hi Ashley, 3+ moves cannot be saved unfortunately, so bacically the level you were on when you recieved the moves is the level that the moves are for. Very frustrating indeed, took me quite a while to figure it out!!!

Anonymous said...

this level can be beaten but only in a certain way. you have to swap a striped and wrapped candy very early and you will see a big boost in points. read anonymous post on july 22, 2013 at 7:55 PM.

Sharon said...

I just discovered that Puffin is the browser to use for this level! I just played 5 games with scores over 400,000! I was ready to give up since i was able to get all the required candies but rarely scored over 120,000 using IE browser on my IPad.

Puffin also allows flash videos to play. Extra bonus!

Sharon said...

I totally agree that there is a glitch on this level!

When using the Candy Crush app or playing via Facebook on Internet Explorer on level 391, i rarely get over 125,000 points even though am able to reach the blue, red & yellow candy goals.

However, when using Puffin on my IPad, I have consistently scored over 400,000 points after 5 attempts.

I reported this to King.com and they issued a canned keyword response that did not address the issue.

Unknown said...

I having issues with 391 ,, on android,
it's not properly calculating score making it impossible, to clear ,
I even bought boosters to , help,
not spending any more until issue is fixed,
, thank u!

Anonymous said...

Ok pillow and striped then lol. Not only do you need to pull this combo off early, it has to be somewhere at the middle of the board. This boosts the score to 150000. Again, you have to complete the level 6-8 moves ahead. Hope this helps.

Anonymous said...

I managed to get all the red and blue candies, but I don't get enough yellow candies! So it is impossible to clear this level if there aren't enough yellow candies on the board...

Anonymous said...

I could beat this level tks to the friend's tip here. Combinating 1 pillow and 1 stripe candy very early. Thanks a lot!!!

Anonymous said...

Another POOR effort by candy crush for this level on iPad and iPhone as the scoring on these devices are IMPOSSIBLE, ifs its a bug... Fix it please as I am losing interest fast, and I'm sure I'm not the only one!!!!

Anonymous said...

same here its frustrating... I've done several times and yet scores are very low... it's like G R R R...

Anonymous said...

I didn't realize how badly the scoring on my iPad was until I watched a video to try and figure out what I was doing wrong. I'm doing the same moves as video and getting 80k points and video has 400k. This level sucks. I guess I will have to use a computer to beat it.

Anonymous said...

Make wrap+strip candy (better at the center of the board) at early stage of the game, this would help to boost the score. Need more effort to clear the yellow candies. Manage to clear this level today after countless attempts. p.s. I am using Andriod phone.

Anonymous said...

I didn't finish level 391 on Android device and tried once online (first time) and scored 614.000 points !
On Android max points 166.000

Fix it and next time I will stop playing CC

Ps: funny i got all of the boosters online and didn't even know they existed! (Why such a big difference in where you play it?!)

Anonymous said...

I think this level is hard to best because they want to keep us busy while they create more levels. I net when they update n add more levels this level(391) will be a breeze to pass. Lol. Just a thought

Anonymous said...

Add me to the list. I just ran the table on this level. It could not of been done any better. All candies, with 18 moves left. I was crushing the level... lol then level fail. Score 169780. What?!?!?!?

Anonymous said...

OK... nervous breakdown with this level !!

I tried hundred time, barely reaching 190 000, most of the time 120 000...
Then, some kind of magic happen, with a combo wrapped+stripped in the first moves, the score jumped over 100 000 instantanly. Managed to finish the level with 16 moves left and the score ended at... 238 400! i absolutely feel desesperate !

Anonymous said...

3 weeks trying on app 2 minutes on pc! Definate glitch

Sultan of swing said...

Striped and wrapped at the beginning and then you try hard.

I have only managed to get the early combo once and it spiked my score to 140k and i finished the level with 220.

So my advice is, if you dont get a striped and wrapped in like 8 moves, just quit and restart.

On 2nd day with this level

Anonymous said...

It's a bit random i guess.
I did a combo of wrapped and stripped on my third move and barely reached 100 000 while last time i did get to 160 000. I don't know if this has to do with the blocks that protect the sparkling chocolates being removed or not.
But it's really not fun anymore.

Anonymous said...

I agree with many of the posters here as I have completed this level several times but haven't come close to getting the minimum score. I play on the iPad and my top score was around 170,000 after getting a good board with extra speckled candies combined with striped. Other scores are around the 140,000 mark. They really need to fix this glitch.

Anonymous said...

It is almost impossible to beat level 391.I thought for sure I had it beat with what I'm going to call a perfect run only to come up 2000 points shy of the goal. The key is to combine a candy wrapper and a striped candy early in the level in order to get rid of those bombs and then use you're sprinkle balls however you choose. If you manage to combine those 2 later on in the level and destroy more bombs you will def get close. I'm not giving up bug our no bug this level is going down...ON MY ANDROID!!

Unknown said...

I've played this level loads on my iPhone and on my tablet, can clear all the required colours but still can't pass as I can't get high enough points. I guess this is where candy crush and I part company! Not impressed at all.

For me it’s very clear. You have to get trough using a PC, if you insist trying on your mobile phone you’re wasting your time. Or just be patient and wait till they fix the app for mobile version. That’s it.

thank god..i thot i was getting dumber.. turns out im not alone having this problem...max score ive reached 160+++ thru android n ipad..far from the aimed score.. =.=* *pissed*

Glad to know that i am not the only one who experince this, the lvl 285 took me so long to finish and then this, the frustration is that many my friends finish it with 400k+, now i know what happen, cheers

Anonymous said...

I finally passed this level on my iPhone by doing what the posters recommended above: making a wrapped/striped combination in the middle of the board at the beginning of the game. But even if you do that there is still only like a 5% chance you can beat the stupid level.

If I couldn't make a wrapped candy on the very first move I'd press the quit button and start over, otherwise it was just a huge waste of time with no chance of winning. Sometimes when you make that combination the score jumps up to over 100,000 and sometimes it doesn't. I finally got lucky with one that did, and then got luckier with several combinations of disco balls :) with striped candies.

They need to fix this though. It's almost impossible.

Melissa and Mike said...

So frustrated watching this video to see with 23 moves left the lowest star level has been reached already when I can beat the game with 7 moves left and reach a score that only makes it to half a star on my phone. PLEASE fix this, I've been playing this level for a while now with the same outcome no matter what! :(

Anonymous said...

Same problem :-((

Rolfi said...

The solution is very easy: Play it on Facebook (pc) and you got the level quickly. I played like crazy on the android and not near the point I need. Then I moved to the PC and did it on the first go. - Bug in Android Version.

Anonymous said...

391! Fix the glitch. I will not play until the update.

Anonymous said...

I have to say I am sick of the bugs that only effect playing on phones, I am not on facebook, have paid my way to this level and this is not the first time there has been a glitch. I am giving up as for me the makers should test each level on all platforms as basic customer service will save my 69p's at least! With regards to this level if you do the combo wrapped and strip BEFORE any wrappers are removed from the bottom glitter balls (as I call them) then you do get over 100,000 points. Remember each bomb is worth 3,000 so once you clear the 2 lines you have to clear then to get a further row of bombs then do another wrapped/striped combo and you might hit 240,000 but I doubt it! most I have is 192,000 if I had 14 moves left I may have crept in! Give up is my advice and wait for the bug fix.

Anonymous said...

Don't play this level on your phone!!!! Do it on your laptop and see how different your score will be!!

Anonymous said...

Worse level so far!!! Even playing it on the computer doesn't help! I reach the score ok but then I run out of moves. I manage to collect all the blue & red orders but still need many yellows to collect with not too msny appearing on the board. And this is after starting with a stripe/wrapped combo. Very frustrating!!!

Anonymous said...

Ok I think I was lucky on my way to pass this level, with about 31 moves left and some color bombs frozen I was able to mix a striped with a wrapped, luckly this left me with two color bombs that I was able to mix together and cleared a lot of the order and get the score needed. I think was just a matter of luck, with the very last move I mixed the final 3 yellow candies needed to clear the level.

mike hunt said...

Yea I know you guys, this has been happening for about 3 to 4 weeks now and it's very nerve racking, and I paid so much money to these bastards and I hear that they make over $630,000 in one day, and there not doing anything about this issue when it's supposedly the number 1 game out right now for phones and what not, so you'd think they be on top of their game. Bad service if you ask me, cuz I've tried this level well over 350 times and it's like impossible man the closest I got was at 233,000 points and I still have like 9 moves left and only 3 yellows feeling good bout finally beating then Whatya know a bomb that literally came outta no where and blew the game for me. Man I was so pissed so they might not wanna fix it or something cuz I swear man there was no bomb on my board they did something so yea it needs to get fixed!

Anonymous said...

Just be patient can be done on the phone with no boosts I had twelve moves left after getting orders and I got a few extra speckled candies which helped and mix a stripped and wrapped candy in the centre right at the start if u can big points boost

Anonymous said...

its actualyt preety easy to do, try to get the bomb drop as many as you can using the combo. i get like 270K but its immposible to get 2 star.
played on samsung note.

After reading the comments above I tried it on PC and it is definetely easier, but all levels are easier on the PC . I played a few of the previous difficult levels on PC and passed them 1st time.

The PC version of the game is different from the phone/app version, dont know why but it is.

Anonymous said...

It's not possible to reach the points on a tablet. Please candy crush fix this. I have had contact with the app team, but all I get is a general answer.

No way to get my one star on the Ipad. Finished so many times and didn 't even get half way. Frustrating but I red that I am not the only one. GET THIS FIXED!!!

Anonymous said...

It is possible to beat this level on phone/tablet. Though I never pass it on phones, I several times get 200 or 240k points and got 30 moves. Ithink only luck can get that because crushing bombs can get ~9000 each crush. However I always fail to detonate bombs or collect enough candies

Anonymous said...

There is absolutly no way of doing it on smart phones/tablets. FACT! If its not sorted in a week the app is being deleted!

As for people on here saying they did it on smart phone/tablet, that is a lie, why would you be on the level 391 help page if you'd already completed it?

Rant Over, back to work...

Anonymous said...

I have finally completed this level on Iphone!!!

After playing it more than 100 times, i finally reached 240,000 points and let me just say it involves a lot of luck. If you think you needed a bit of luck in the other levels, this is ridiculous.

This is how I did it:

-First thing's first you need to smash a wrapper into a strip, which will knock the bombs on the left and right and unlock the candy ones on the bottom. if you don't do this at the start before the bombs blow you are better off exiting the game and starting over.

-leave two candy's at the bottom, this is just in case you don't clear the bombs, you will have to smash them into each other before the bombs run out (do it when the bombs on 1).

-once youve cleared the bombs your score should be more than 3 quarters. But you're only half way there, you still need to get extremely lucky and not only get the orders but score more points to get the 240,000 within the moves.

good luck hope that helps

Reb said...

Totally agree with the comments about playing on the ipad. I 'completed' the level several times but didn't reach the minimum score by miles.

As soon as I played on the pc my scores, even when not completing, were around 500,000!!!

I completed the level easily after a few goes scoring about 650,000.

Defo needs to be played on a computer.

Ahh i've 'beaten' level 391 a several times already but i've never had the required score, so frustrating >< finally know the reason why :p If i scroll through the comments i see that this situation is the same as in level 285, strangely i've beaten level 285 on my phone (luck?)

Confirmed: couldn't score high enough on iPad. Beat it 2nd try on Facebook. I spent money on this level on iPad, so I've alerted Apple and King.com. I hope to get a refund.

Played on my PC through FB. Finally finished and came close too many times!!

Getting all the orders and not enough score is frustrating. On the game I won, I could have finished the orders but I didn't have enough of a score. So I made additional moves before collecting my last yellow candies.

Accept the fact that you will use many lives at this level. Good luck! PM

I already finish 395

Need update on tablet
please like pc until 455 level

♥ After seeing so many comments, I wasn't expecting to get it within 2 tries. I got lucky I guess. 1 star. Used the color bombs to take care of the numbered bombs. Had one striped/color bomb that helped a lot.

Soraya said...

Not possible to complete it on Ipad, on the pc it was no problem. Must be a bug.

I've passed this level 6 times on my iPad, but my score hasn't been even half. So frustrating. Good luck to everyone because I'm ready to break this thing! ;)

Level 391 is IMPOSSIBLE on my phone or tablet. Can collect all the orders, but can't get enough points. Very Frustrating!!

Anonymous said...

Hmm well after reading all the above and coming to see if there was a solution. I went to my lap top and came close, score was achieved easy within a few moves etc., but oops with only a few colors to get and just maybe enuff moves I forgot to set off the bomb that I'd set aside two choc bombs for...dang it...well I'll just have to wait for lives on facebook...I can get lives on my iphone by putting my clock forward thru settings a month or so..then reverting clock back to auto!! so i can play forever lol

Anonymous said...

How can they do this crap...I recall an earlier level, before 100 i think where the orders were different on facebook to the iphone...it was impossible on iphone but i got it on facebook easy because the orders were far less for same level...it's ridiculous and although this is an obvious glitch doubt it will be fixed before I finish on facebook..I've got close on FB several times just a few color short..will just hv to be patient for my lives to accummulate...grrrrrrrrrr

I realized that it was a bug when I started playing that level, but since there is no update coming from App Store I finally lost my temper and started to google about it. I finished the level so many times (w/o enough points ofc) & bought extra candy until my app account asked me to log in and verify that no one hacked into my account!! - still didnt pass the level. and I will not log in to fb bc of this. I don't have Facebook and it shouldn't be a criteria to be able to play a game on my phone. pisses me off!

WOW!! This was an EVIL level!! I played on iPad, iPhone and PC and tried for over a month and couldn't collect all the orders!! I had completely given up, until the latest App update! YAY!! I finally beat it last night on my iPad!!

Anonymous said...

The trick to the level is to combine striped candy with a wrapped candy that gets 6 bombs and it scores 100,000 each time. You must do this twice before the bombs explode. Very difficult took me about 3 wks to beat it. Combination must be striped to wrapped not wrapped to stripe

Anonymous said...

Good thing the bug is fixed, but that' s not my concern in the first place. I don't know how you guys keep the bombs in check. Combining two speckled candies always leave at least one bomb and if I can smash that one, more bombs will come. Nice idea to start with a stripe/wrap combination, but in almost one hundred tries I never even had one wrapper, let alone combine one with a striped in the beginning. :-(

Jude said...

For this level I barely combined anything. Just cleared down to one speckled candy. Then hit one colour with each speckled candy, watching carefully to see if I could make other colour bombs go at the same time. This clears out all the original bombs and usually leaves me one speckled candy over. Then work on the orders, using the spare speckled candy to get any new bombs that can't be cleared with a striped candy.

Anonymous said...

I came to this site for hints on how to do the level but as I scroll down all I see is people winging how it doesnt work on their phone. If it upsets you that much phone Samaritans and leave some room for comments about different things.

Anonymous said...

I just finished with 2 stars but i an glad i am finished with this level after watching walkthrough video. Thank you!
*What I did was i had 15 move bombs on the sides. So in the middle box I made some matches for blue, yellow, red candies then made my way down when it is down to 6 moves.
* I made color bomb + color bomb combo to eliminate all the candies and bombs.
* Do not make horizontal striped candies as it will bring down more move bombs.
* Make lots of vertical striped candies to eliminate more candies. A wrapped + wrapped combo made it easier for me to eliminate more candies without freeing bombs.
* in every move make sure to eliminate the required candies so you would get nearer to your goal.
Good luck! Keep on crushing! - LEI

Anonymous said...

I am on this incredible hard level almost 3 days. it is almost impossible to get to the bottom. lives and lives and lives wasted on just getting 12 moves, it is not fun anymore. I dread pressing play on this game because of the varity of coloured bombs. I am really dreading playing this game

Anonymous said...

There is no "bug" or issue with this level. It is however the most difficult level I have ever seen by far. I beat it on my iPhone after about 300 tries. The strategy is to take out the side bombs by pushing a stripe into a candy wrapper... if you push the wrapper into the stripe, you'll notice you get far less points, so it DOES matter which one you push into which. If you do that before pushing 2 disco balls together, you'll notice your points go up to about 135,000 or more. Then you take out the rest of the bombs by using 2 disco balls. That should get you hopefully to 180,000 or so. From there you wanna try the same strategy by getting another stripe/wrapper combination that takes out additional bombs... Only the world's greatest candy crush players will ever be able to beat this level on an iPhone. Top 1 percentile I would say...

Anonymous said...

Seems to be almost impossible a lot of the time to get any sort of moves to break the bottom row. Is this a glitch or just CC trying to be annoying? You cannot hope to beat it without breaking that row so the game becomes pointless.

Anonymous said...

I am so stuck on this level i have been playing it everyday and i find it impossible. Can anyone give me some tips on how to pas this level? thanks so much :*

dirty vegas said...

ok this is not as hard as you think , its tempting to use the chocolate bombs right away but don't , try and make a stripped candy to eliminate a colour and boost your score , it clears the bombs and makes the game more manageable . good luck

Anonymous said...

On I phone 5 I didn't worry about chocolate and striped.
I got the chocolate sprinkle and hit it with another of same. I used the 2 in the bottom left side and this cleared the board and all the bombs. Then concentrated on the rest of the number of the 3 colors needed.
I imagine any 2 chocolate sprinkles will do the trick.

I just passed this level. Try making as many combos as possible doesn't matter what colors in the first 14 moves. Then when the time bomb turns 1, activate the Color bomb vs color bomb combo that should clear all time bomb. Then concentrate on clearing the blue yellow and red, and make only vertical strips and wrapped candies. When there is less than 15 moves left make any crazy combos to clear as many colors as you can. At that point even if you activate the time bomb it doesn't matter anymore. That should maximise your chance of getting the right colors.

I've read this blog 3 times and the only advice I get is about getting score which has been fixed.I have only had normal problems up until 391 but this one is driving me crazy I cannot beat it. maybe I'm overthinking it but if someone could give me a strategy that will work I would greatly appreciate it

I finally beat it even know nobody gave me any strategies, just a heads up if anybody's listening

Both sides are all color bombs & they explode before you can get rid of them! Not even a fun level!

Set off two chocolate bombs then concentrate on the middle usual combinations needed. Completed fifth attempt.

Anonymous from October 6th...I did exactly what you said & beat it in the 1st try after reading your strategy. It really worked. I made the wrapped & striped candy. Pushed the stripped candy into the wrapped....exactly that way. Then used the chocolate balls together to clear the bombs before the bombs exploded. Then I kept mixing the striped & wrapped when I could. Then I used the other chocolate balls before I ran out of moves. It cleared the rest if the board & I got it!! Yay thanks for the tip

This was my approach, playing on Facebook. There are fourty moves and the bombs count down from fifteen. At the start, I worked to get the blocking cream one row above the sparklies cleared, and then I unfroze two adjacent sparklies but left the others frozen. To get to this point, I made the best available melds, regardless of the orders. Once I had adjacent sparklies freed, I concentrated on getting orders, red, blue and yellow, especially the latter. When the bomb counters reached one, I cleared the board by merging the sparklies. This left two more sparklies adjacent and unfrozen, and more bombs appeared, but they started with fresh counts. I then concentrated on orders, leaving the two sparklies alone and making sure nothing I did would set them off. Again, when the bomb counters reached one, I merged the sparklies and cleared the board. More bombs appeared, but now their counters were higher than the number of moves left, so I ignored them and concentrated on making orders. In tries where I could use the sparklies in this manner, I made the level on the third of those, failing on the second by being three yellows short (if I had one more move that time, I had my choice of melds to get the last yellows).

Clear the cream to get the color bombs, then combine 2 of them to wipe out all the bombs. Once they're gone, you can work on filling the orders. Try not to make any combos in the side columns til the end so you don't have to worry about exploding bombs.

Having trouble with this level also.Looking for some help with logging onto the Kingdom with Facebook. I always play on my iPad but cannot connect with Facebook. I am on a much lower level on my PC. How can I sync the two. Also on my iPad if I removed CC from my I
Pad would I loose the level I am on and have to start from scratch. For some reason CC app does not appear in the list of downloaded apps on my iPad although I play it every day on iPad. Sorry for this long, rambling post but really want to sort this out. Thanks

c/candycrush here.

The trick to this level (and where an element of luck comes in) is you must be able to clear the blockers near the bottom and release the colour bombs or freckles, as my family calls them. This has to be done asap and the faster it is done, the more likely it is you will make it through.
Combine 2 of the colour bombs and they will blast most of your bombs, which will be replaced temporarily by normal candy.

Look for any other combos after that, just be aware anything which clears a line horizontally will also clear a line in the bomb bays and a new bomb will drop down.

Score isn't hard to get, completely filling the orders is and can probably only be achieved by extra combos.

Get to the sprinkles asap, combine two together to wipe out the bombs. Once you've wiped out the bombs avoid clearing the L and R columns otherwise you'll just get more bombs. Fun level.

I really hate this level !!!! I can't make any special candies, when I do get to the chocolate balls, nearly all of them get exposed so therefore when I detonate two of them, they all go off !! Then most of the colors aren't the right ones & there's no way I can get what's called for to complete this stinking rotten level !

When I have a board that gets me to the sprinkles early on to clear the bombs, I never have enough of the order colors to make combos! I end up finishing with MAYBE one color order completed. UGH

Score is impossible on ipad 2. I've gotten the needed color combinations many, many times, but the score is never even close. And yes, I've tried every combination/strategy there is. Been playing this level for weeks and it must be a glitch for ipads. Waving the white flag. I give up.

This is impossible and going on to play something els now patients has been stretched to the limit, it seem there is something very wrong with this level so had enough

Have been on this level a long time...not enough of the colors needed show up on the board... when bombs show up mid game on the sides...impossible to get them before they explode.must be ONLY LUCK..

I can't even clear the bombs!! It will shuffle-putting the bombs in the middle--WTH??! I tried hand swaps-hammering a 1 second bomb away--etc....and nothing is working! Should've passed it by now---played it a million times!
