Candy Crush Saga level 902

Tips for level 902 Candy Crush Saga
In my opinion level 902 Candy Crush Saga is more difficult than level 893!
I have been unable to get more than one star on this level despite numerous attempts, but I have gathered a few tips from other players who have managed to do a bit better than I have on level 902.
First clear as much jelly in the middle as you can in the first few moves so that when you release the fish they will head for the sides and top, not the middle which you can clear easily yourself.
All the time you have to be looking for colour bomb patterns and stripe and wrap patterns.
Wraps alone will clear jelly in the middle but won't reach the sides where you need them, so they need to be switched with a stripe or colour bomb.
The best combo for clearing 902 Candy Crush Saga is a colour bomb/stripe combo, especially if there are plenty of candies the same colour as the stripe in the sides and top.
This combo won't give you a lot of points so you need to watch your points as you get close to clearing the jelly. It's very common to finish level 902 with not enough points.
Stripe/wrap combos will give good points as well as clearing jelly, so use them if you can, but ultimately colour bombs are what you need for a 3 star score.

Well, after numerous times playing, I finally beat the level - or thought I had - but alas not enough points. Ugh!

Jennifer said...

Actually had three color bombs in my last game and *still* didn't get enough points! 220,000 points is high!

t said...

Hardest level ever! I also cleared all the jellies but not enough points. Grrr....

Peachie said...

I had the exact amount of points as Jennifer and lost, of course.

Anonymous said...

Same here: finally cleared the jelly, completely happy, only to find out I didn't have enough points...

Anonymous said...

I have cleared all the jelly three times but have not had enough points to complete the level. What a bummer.

Anonymous said...

Now completed this 6 times. My best score is 217,000! I have scored over 220,000 twice but didn't clear all the jelly.

Anonymous said...

Ive been trying to make only stripes or bombs, I wasted too much time with combos and wraps alone dont do anything. Stiil have not reached 220, and Im all out of boosters (used a ton on this). HATE!

Anonymous said...

OMG, literally just cleared all with a total of 162. Ridiculous level!!!!

Anonymous said...

Me too... 173 points and all jelly cleared... ridiculous ... We are so near to the end for now and they won't let us escape!

Chris said...

I just cleared all the jelly using a color bomb+stripe combo, with 20 moves left, and ended up with 218,000. Argh! I had 20 moves left, I could've easily scored 2000 pts with 20 moves. This is the 3rd time I've cleared this board and come up short on the points.

Anonymous said...

Cleared the board many times but like others are saying....not enough points!!

Peachie said...

One thing we know-we'll crush when King's ready for us to crush. Just play for fun and save your boosters. That's what I'm doing. Good luck to us all :).

Anonymous said...

Have used many lives. Best yet was to clear board 1 tie with 218,8. Will keep trying. Don't get many good combos. Tough level.

Jennifer said...

I don't know how, but I finally beat this, with no boosters. I had three color chocolate bombs, but I've had that before and it didn't make a difference in the past. Why it did this time, I'm not sure. Cleared all the jelly and got 263,000 points. So I would recommend just playing for fun as someone else suggested, and if you beat it, great, and if you don't, wait it out, as I'm sure King will be updating this level when they see how many people are getting stuck.

Leslie said...

I am of the same mind as others. You will win when King is ready to let you win, as with other hard levels. I tried some free boosters, too and nothing works. It is tough to play for fun, when you are bored!

Anonymous said...

Like others I cleared the board multiple times with not enough points. Finally I got lucky and hit a bomb/stripe combo on the last turn and got 240,000. One star but I'll take it. I think this was one of the hardest most boring levels.

Anonymous said...

I have only cleared the board about 3x since this saga opened, however, I never have the required amount of points needed to pass this level. It's actually more frustrating than some of the other hard levels because once you clear the board, you are smacked in the face with being told that you are still a loser. I don't think that it's possible for me to get the required points, and I am now considering leaving CC forever.

Anonymous said...

They really need to lower the points down to 180. The level is tough, but I barely broke 218 with 17 moves left and popping a stripe/bomb combo. Incredibly frustrating

didueverdoubtme said...

After a few hours I managed to clear jelly using a hand switch on last jelly..3 moves left. Worried I wld not reach target score as I had never hit that far...but risked using the hand switch and got exact target
Phew.. lucky as hell. .boring level

Anonymous said...

Played this level on android. Cleared the jelly and scored 160,000 However my score then jumped to 222,000 and I passed the level!

Anoniem said...

Good tip!!
Played this level several times on my iPad, I never cleared the board.
Played this level on android and cleared the jelly the first try!!

Jocelyn said...

2nd try, no boosters, 1 star. Another lucky bug on this level - I only had 206k points but it said I passed anyway and bumped my score up to 220k.

Anonymous said...

Attention!! This level is now on mobile and was either nerfed or with a glitch to let you pass! Passed on my iPad last night, cleared board with 146k score, no rewarding usual "crush" action to increase score BUT when the window pops up to show I didn't meet minimum score, it showed I had 1 star with 220k. (ckd another blog and people posting same experience)

Anonymous said...

Same experience last night on my android devise...However there was a candy crush update that happened an hour before I played....either a glitch or the game has been simplified for the score to increase when the board is cleared....also I have noticed that the score requirement has been bumped up for this level as of today to 300,000....good luck anyways... lorrayne

Sarah said...

Agreeing with previous posters, I just passed this level on iPad with way less than the required points. Yay!

Cat said...

Guess it was fixed. Played a few times without clearing board and was set for a long haul, but then lucky with stripe/choc ball, many moves left, and more than enough points by a lot.

Anonymous said...

Totally bored with this level! No skill whatsoever required.

SueJ said...

Horrible level - have used so many of my free boosters but to no avail. Finally thought I had got there and used my last lollipop to get rid of my last jelly only to find that I had not scored enough points - the fish at the end just don't get enough points - grrrr!! I will not waste any more of my boosters - will just keep trying without - but I am getting bored now and don't look forward to playing this level any more. Roll on my 'lucky board' - if it doesn't appear soon then I may have to find a new game!!! :(

Anonymous said...

This level is ridiculous! With six colours and such a small space to work in, very difficult to make special candies and combos.
And if by some fluke you do manage to clear the jelly, then you'll find that you don't have a high enough score.
Utter rubbish level!!

Anonymous said...

Got this on the 2nd try. Chocolate ball/sprinkle just about cleared the whole board. Had 1 candy left, the fish left got it. Had 218,800 points with 12 moves to go, but the game went to 220,000 and passed me.

Anonymous said...

Passed this level today with 193200 points! A colour bomb/striped combo was the solution

Anonymous said...

So, I finally got past this level, but not without opening the (free) booster bank. I've been stuck here for several days, long enough to be getting the +5 moves from friends. I had managed to clear the jellies 3 times, but never with enough points. I finally got enough points when I managed to get a color bomb/wrap combo early on and then a couple of stripe/wrap combos. Once I finally had enough points, I used a bunch of lollipop hammers (7, I think - I hoard them till I really need them, lol) to clear the rest of the board. Brutal! Once star, but I'm never going back in there!

Some tips:
- It's a level with goldfish at the end, so finishing with a lot of moves left isn't to your advantage.
- Because of that, the goldfish booster wasn't much good for me. It helps clear the jelly earlier, but I'd fall way short on points.
- Color bomb/stripe combos help with clearing the jelly, but any goldfish on the board at the time will turn into stripes, so mixing one early on means you may lose some of the built-in fish.
Good luck!

I had so many attempts with multiple color bomb/stripe combos, and even once with a color bomb/color bomb combo that didn't give me enough points. You really need a color bomb/wrap to be one of the combos, but even then you'll need more than just that.

Anonymous said...

Got this today on my PC. I opened it on my Ipad and Iphone and no good for me on either of them... But, got it after about two weeks of trying many hours. I thought it was impossible... but I won fair and square. Had to get all the points and no boosters. I was going to buy the hammers when I realized I was in reach of a win when a stripe did it for me and popped the last jelly.... such a rush after such a fight!!! Terrible level... should be banned LOL.

Anonymous said...

Horrible level, no fun. I can't clear the jellies at all even with boosters, let alone get the required points. Guess I have to wait for the lucky board.

Crusher said...

Take heart! I cleared the jelly with only 196,000 points but it accelerated my points to 220,000 so I could pass!

Van5 said...

Ok so I don't get it. Cleared the board with only 159K, but it came up "wonderful level passed" and my score went up to 220K. I'm playing on iPad. Does that make a difference? Who knows. Happy to be passed it.

Anonymous said...

I also won the level without getting the points. Maybe they realized it was unachievable and fixed something. At any rate I am not complaining and am moving on!!

Anonymous said...

This level is hard enough without having to get 220,000 points. I haven't even been able to clear all the jelly yet and now I see you have to get all those points too? This may be my last level.

Unknown said...

I started this level a few times with a color bomb and the wrap/stripe booster from the bonus wheel. It was effective in clearing the jelly, but I'm still in the dilemma of getting the 220,000 points. grrrrrrrr!

Leslie said...

9 days since my last post and that was post #16. I came back to see if anyone was having any luck and there were 40 posts!!! What is up with people winning on Android? I guess I am doomed, because I only have a PC :(

Leslie said...

Finally, I saw that I had enough points so I used 5 hammers to win. Not happy that I had to use them, though :(

Charlotte said...

Certainly didn't have enough points again but it let me through anyway. Maybe the pass level used to be higher and they haven't changed the coding yet?

Anonymous said...

I got a decent board, right off the bat a striped/wrapped combo started the clearing then used the hammer to align A color bomb with stripe. That took everything out, had 20 moves left, got 220,000 points, passed it after about 10 tries. Good luck to all.

Anonymous said...

This is one heck of a level. Stuck here for almost 10 days and finally cleared it. So far the toughest and longest time taken level.

Shockwave crashed at the time I succeed! Damn!

Jane said...

I too had only 180 some points but it said I passed at 220. Who am I to argue. Happy to be moving on,😊

Unknown said...

I finally passed this muther, took 3 hammers, but I passed! what a crappy level!

Just completed the level on the phone app without getting the points. Was well short, then it said level complete and all of a sudden I had 220k... moving on quickly!!

Yawn.... I can't wait until they have decided I played this level long enough and just let me pass.

I miss JanC and the usual mambo jambo: Bet even JanC didn't make the 'usual' 1st try 3 stars on this level.

JanC is full of you know what! She hasn't posted for 3.5 days which means that she still hasn't passed 902 yet! Happens all the time. You don't hear from her for days and then she claims to have passed first try with 3 stars! She's just full of herself.

Maybe JanC is really a HE!!!!

dirty vegas said...

After a week of trying I finally cleared the board but didnt score enough points lol ,man i am furious lol not enough moves on the board to make decent combos to score the points required ....been down to requiring one jelly a few times with the required amount of points ,it's just a matter of getting both at the same time .... im away to try again !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anonymous said...

JanC here! 1st try 3 stars used a few boosters, fish and sprinkle and a few hammers! But beat it either way, Eh?

Gang, not too hard, all you kiddies are thinking to much, just use your crushing skills and crish some candies! Use a few boosterinos if need be or just become a crushinh expert like your fellow Hab here Eh?

Keep at it gang!!

What is with King? Nearly impossible. I'm literally going grey trying to get to the goal. UGH

Anonymous said...

There is no space to move in the middle and there is 3 layers covering the jelly on the left/right and top.. and you have 35/38 moves.to get the job done.
Its not a matter of orginsation..

Its a matter of playing for a week or 2. Untill. THE BOARD DECIDES. to give you the level.
These levels are totally pointless

Anonymous said...

Hey, I think today is a lucky day because I completed the level without reaching the points required... So go ahead and try everybody. I can't be the only lucky person here ;)

JanC here! Gotta be proud, Eh? You only beat the level because of a glitch. Too bad you didnt posess the expert caliber crushing skills as myself there sweety, or ya woulda beat it fair and square 1st try 3 stars no boosterinos, Eh?

Hi it's Kath... I passed this finally after a few frustrating days.. And I also didn't get the points needed either ??? but it let me pass too!! go figure!!

UGH...having no luck here after 2+ weeks. Tried on my android phone as well as my laptop, still no luck. Frustrating, but refuse to "PAY" for a win.

Hi it's Kath... Paying for boosters in my opinion isnt cheating.

Worst level ever. Gave up for 2 weeks and when i came back i realized why. This is looking like the one which makes me give up for good.

Anonymous said...

Wow, JanC's trolls are really annoying. Almost as annoying as this level.

Anonymous said...

My god I can honestly say this level if not the hardest in all CC it sure is 2nd..I failed at least 10 times not even coming close to jellies or score & then finally got lucky & cleared the jellie on my last move only to fail on points.My heart sank..I since have gotten close on jellies but score no way..Just when I was about to take a break from CC for awhile the board allowed me a bomb/wrap early that scored tons & then got another bomb & matched with stripe which started all the fish going & really cleaned one side & top & started matching singles til I saw score still short & just over 200K & had only 2 moves & candy on bottom right side & marmalade fish on upper right & felt so low until I saw the answer..I had a daily spin collection of some hand switchs & a lolly hammer..I switched booster glove putting stripe atop wrap & that cleared candy on right & put score over but still had marmalade fish & one move..Used hammer & it opened fish which then ate itself...Unreal 1 star 240K & over..I hated this level so so much & w/o boosters I just don't know..Points are unreally ridiculous...Keep the faith & those daily spins can help when the opportunity comes.

Unknown said...


Just passed the level on the tablet with 145.000 points made, but filled up to 220.000. King's mercy

Anonymous said...

c/candycrush here
I've cleared all the jelly too, with 180k points, but it did not take pity on me & bump me up to 220k, I am sorry to say.

Very hard.
Boosters don't get me there either so better to just keep playing and hoping for a lucky board or that it will be tweaked. If anyone is getting through in hours, well, I applaud you, I've been days and no closer.

Joosy said...

I think they have made this level so ridiculously difficult, to slow us all down. There's not that many levels after this, so perhaps they want more time or they're getting bored with the whole thing. I can't see how I'm going to get through this one without spending on boosters or extra lives.

Unknown said...


Maybe I passed because it was about the 10th time I cleared the jelly with not enough points. I don't know.

JanC here! 1000 words or less, Eh???

kfmconsulting said...

Tough level but finally got it with a sprinkle/stripe combo, 1 star, no boosters on iPad. Only had 173k points but let me pass the level.

Cat said...

Folks this is fairly easy if you take it slow. My best advice, think and focus prior to each move!!

Anonymous said...

I managed to get rid of the jelly with 17 moves to go. Thought that I would surely earn enough points with that many left over moves to bump me above the needed total - NOPE! This level is hard enough without needing a massive number of points. Thanks Candy Crush. :(

Anonymous said...

I've cleared the jelly about five times now, but I'm still not getting the points.

Anonymous said...

c/candycrush here.
Got through (at last) a couple of days ago. I was clearing all the jelly daily but not getting the score, or sometimes vice versa.

You either will get a good board or you won't. My advice is this. Play till you at last get a board where you score over the 220k mark & IF there are only one or two jellies left to go, use a lollipop hammer, don't hesitate.
This is a level where you shouldn't be stoic.

Cat said...

As always, quality, forthcoming, and strategic insight hun!

Anonymous said...

Took a very long time but I finally got through. I cleared as much as jelly as I could in the middle then used a colour bomb with striped candy combo which bought the fishes to life. Then I sat back and watched the show.I had seven moves left and all my fingers crossed as all the jelly popped but I didn't get the minimum score yet it appears candy crush took pity on my dedicated soul and let me through anyway. Only one star but a pass nonetheless. Good luck everyone

Anonymous said...

The way to beat this level is to combine color bomb with a wrapped that's where you get the points, then just work on the board, of course all combos become important then.

Anonymous said...

Finally!
I concentrated on making colour bombs and knocked everything out!!!

Deborah said...

The first time I was down to one jelly, I did not use a hammer because I was only at 172,000 points. After reading all of these comments, this time, when I was down to one jelly, I used the hammer. I had only 140,000 points but passed the level

Ultramum said...

:-( ... haven't got the energy to comment on this level :-(

Bill. said...

Had a wrapped candy plus striped candy early on then chocolate bomb plus striped candy which released all the fish to clear all the jelly. Didn't reach points total but completed the level.

Anonymous said...

Don't know what is up with this level. So excited to finally clear it then hit with the bombshell that I hadn't reached the magic 220 :( I play on my PC (fyi), anyway was able to clear the jelly at least 3 more times but never getting enough points. Decided to try on a friends iPad and in minutes had cleared the jelly but only had around 147k, I was passed onto the next level though and my score bumped up to 220.
My suggestion, if you can, beg, borrow, steal a mobile device (actually, no, dont steal!) and you should be able to get to the next level. I would even go so far as to say don't use any boosters. It's near impossible to get the required score and clear the jelly, so go the mobile route.

Anon lafy said...

Well, reading the comments about how tricky this level was - offputting!

I must have been very lucky because it took me only about 10 tries and then I had a sprinkle/stripe opportunity which cleared the whole board and won me the level.

Anonymous said...

So stuck and not even close to getting the points needed. Boosters are wasted.BORING!!! Been playing other levels for the sugar drops.

Hunter MacLean said...

That's funny. I only finished with like 170k points but it just gave me 220k. Finished with 11 moves left too.
Use a colour bomb booster. It helps.

Anonymous said...

Getting pretty tired of this level...numerous shots at it with max bonuses and 3 extra moves, and still nothing. This level isn't fun, it's just a time waster. If I can't get past it soon, I'll probably just drop the game. Nothing more irritating than trying to beat a game that relies almost entirely on luck. If you get this far in a game, you have the skill. Can we base future levels on that, and not some luck factor??

Anonymous said...

I have played this level for 2 months. I have beaten 9 times and all times winning, there was still not enough points. I have even bought extra moves, when I thought that there was a chance on beating it , only to fall short.I will try for another week, and if I cant pass it,I am seriously thinking about giving up on this game. King is relentless on this fucking level.

Anonymous said...

I have no idea how to get enough points to beat this level! Have cleared it over 20 times but can't seem to accumulate enough points to move on. Have been stuck here for weeks. This has to be the most unrealistic level to date.

Anonymous said...

I have cleared the jellies at least 15 times and have never gotten the points. Wraps, Color bombs, just never seem to get me near the point total needed. This level is clearly the most boring one I have encountered to date. Unless the point level comes down, what is the use in playing this useless level.

Unknown said...

I started out using a wrap/stripe combo from my free boosters (I am collecting lots of boosters playing
games that have sugar drops. After collecting a certain #, you'll get 1-3 boosters. I don't care if
I have to play older games to collect the drops which in turn give me boosters).
Fortunately, they were next to each other so I used them right away. I managed to get another wrap/stripe
combo which cleared more of the sides and top filled with jelly. I had other stripes which helped too.
I finished with under 220,000 points but got thru anyway. I don't know why others can't get thru without
reaching 220,000 points. I play 99% of the game on my iPad so am not sure if that makes a difference.
Congrats to all of us who have made it this far!
Good luck!

Anonymous said...

Ok...My last resort...I don't like to complain cause it is a game & it should be challenging (also I complained once before then cleared the level...so...) I don't even have the desire to go in & play this level...I have cleared it 3 times in 2 months (not consistently playing, just collect my bonuses then go out), but have not got the required points, 1 of those times it was 100 under!!! Grrr!!!! So maybe now when I come back in tomorrow (cause I'm not in the mood tonight), I will magically clear it & get the points needed..Thanks for this blog area to let me vent...Good luck to all of you still struggling to clear this level...nite all

Anonymous said...

Well Ive battled through and got frustrated but kept on. Today I have decided that my days with Candy Crush are done :( I have cleared the jellys and one time got to 219,960 but I have done everything I can think of with no luck so bye bye Candy Crush.

Thank you to everyone who comments on the levels because honestly you guys have helped get me to where I managed to get.

Good luck everyone.

I was dreading this but after reading the comments but I passed after the 6th go on android with just 159:000 points so they've obviously changed this level ! Phew!!

KC said...

Not such a difficult level, one time too less points but after this finished with one star. Play as usual, free the board and try to make a sprinkler/stripe combination BUT BEFORE USING THIS WATCH YOUR POINTS! Use it when you're sure you'll comming above the 220.000 points. This is tricky so keep an eye at your score otherwise you've to start again. I'm wishing you good luck, greet from Holland, KC.

Passed third try on PC, after trying about 8 times on ipad didn't come close. On PC I cleared all the jelly the first two tries but fell 10 points short of 220000. Grrr! Seems like more combos were available on PC. Didn't have to use any boosters. So glad I passed ithis one, from coments above, the level is a nasty one. Good luck!
