Candy Crush Saga Level 1616

Hints and tips showing how to pass level 1616 Candy Crush Saga without boosters by Cookie
Level 1616 is an orders level, you need to collect all the cream blockers on the board, plus yellow candies and 8 colour bombs.
The blockers and yellow candies are not too much of a problem but I found making the colour bombs the hardest part of level 1616.
You have four colour bombs already on the board in the form of popcorns, but they are in the corners and not easy to hit three times.
Unlock the cages first to open up the board as much as possible and look carefully at the conveyors as they move because they will get your candies together to make special candies and combos.
I had a very lucky finish on this level after numerous tries, but made a couple of mistakes which may have been important.
After checking the board make your moves near the bottom if there is no better move higher up, as this will give the most movement of candies and the best chance to get your colour bomb patterns.

Okay, I'll be the first. Anybody got any ideas on how to beat this level? 8 Chocolate bombs is impossible, and 110 yellow candies is hard enough.....

Need to open up the board then wrapped striped candy to get the popcorn, once a chocolate is formed explode it with a striped candy. Took a lot of atempts but quite enjoyable.

I am finding this extremely hard! Especially getting the eight colour bombs. it is hard enough getting all of the yellow candies, let alone that number of bombs. My best so far is being left with two colour bombs and thats after a week of playing it. Not an enjoyable level at all.

Hang in there chaps! I just got a lucky board. It rained chocolate bombs!

If you have a check mark booster, use it. Got lots of color bombs with mine.

There's something annoying about this level. On more than one occasion, I had a colour bomb adjacent to a wrap and make the swap, that colour bomb is not counted towards the eight you need for this level. When I finally made this level, I had to get a ninth colour bomb in order to satisfy the requirements. Perhaps this is a bug in the game (playing on the computer; don't know about mobile), but if you have a colour bomb against a wrap, resist the urge and do not make the swap!

The check mark didn't always produce a color bomb but made enough to finish!!

Second try used Check mark and chocolate sprinkle boosters. Managed to pop three of the popcorn and ended up with one more choc sprinkle than I needed. Finished with four moves left and three stars.

Struggling with this one. Have finished several times with only two colour bombs to go.

Waiting until I get gifted 3 extra moves by a friend and will try this with a colour bomb booster and also a check booster.

Zenith said...

Did the trick. In fact I did not have to wait for the 3 extra moves.

Used the check booster as well as colour bomb and passed with 3 moves left.

After reading the tips here, I used the check mark booster and got it the first times...speckled candies popped up everywhere..I was worried I wouldn't get enough yellows...hit a speckle with another color besides yellow and yellow everywhere..if it makes you feel better, the next level is sooo easy..got it on the first try

Started with a colour bomb and a check. Colour bombs seemed to form by themselves after that. My issue wias getting all the yellows. Used some stripe/wrap combs to get more yellow on the board and was able to put the last 2 colour bombs beside yellows ( with the help of a hand switch) to finish them off. Only managed to explode one popcorn. Good luck everyone, your lucky board will come!

Van5 said...

This is not me. Guess I now have a troll.

I got all but 1 chocolate bomb on my third try so I'm hopeful it won't be as painful as recent levels! Will try get a tick booster I think. Good luck everyone :-)

First attempt, no boosters. Guess I got lucky.

Thanks for the tips. I used the check booster on the first board since it is often the luckiest and won with three stars. I love reading your comments! Diane

JB said...

Thanks for the tips on here. 3rd attempt, started with a check and a chocolate bomb and ended up with loads of chocolate bombs.

Bill. said...

1st try. Thank you chaps for the tips.

Ultramum said...

Check mark booster gave me one colour bomb and then no more check mark candies appeared at all :-( Think King may have altered the coding

I just used the mystery candy (I think other people call it check mark booster) and managed to finish first go with 5 moves left and still had 3 chocolate sprinkles on the board. Kept getting good mystery candys.

wow, I expected a lot more comments as I am finding this very challenging. I don't have a "check" booster and I got down to one chocolate ball. I guess I should have taken advantage of that and used more boosters to finish but that was early on. Now stuck here for a lucky board. :(

After reading these comments I decided to use the check booster. After a few times I got close but not enough and used my lovely hammers to break the popcorn open. I then had the 4 colour bombs and I still needed but only 1 move left and with the last move (crossing a colour bomb with a stripe) I hit only the three colour bombs. Luckily I had gold bars to buy extra lives and that helped me to finish it. But what was King thinking - 8 colour bombs??? Grace from DU

Run out of boosters for the day but made a lucky couple of colour bombs and switched them with stripes which got me the popcorns so finished easily about 5th attempt, iPad no boosters it can be done, persevere!

Having some difficulty here. Tried check but just got yellow candies. Hoping for some luck.

Just to share it clear it without boaster. The key is to make the bomb first as yellow candies will take care of themselves when crusader happen. Understand the belt. Is only on column 2 5 8 It leave column 3 4 not 6 7 fix some there is where u use column 5 to made bombs. Once u get the 8 bombs it leave u with only yellow not blockers.

Stop using your names and you won't have to worry about the trolls! Geez, people...you'd think it was the end of the world.

Carol said...

Tried and tried, couldn't get the eight special candies. Use the check mark booster, got it first try, three stars.

Getting the color bombs is really hard. Tip to use the check, but have none 😢. Hoping for lucky board to pass this one 😊

Anonymous said...

tick check marks are the easiest way to pass this level. they mostly give you yellow or colour bombs. I got 4 of my colour bombs from these.

Try making matches in bottom half of board as this activates cascades. You also need a lucky board!

Check booster best option for this level

MissyM said...

Playing on PC. Started with Chocolate Bomb and Lucky Check Booster from my stash. Passed with 3 Stars on first try. Had 15 moves left. Another very lucky board. GL all

Barbc said...

Sprinkle and check mark booster to begin are the keys to beating this level. Reset til sprinkle is next to a yellow. Set that off to begin getting the yellows. More checkmarks will appear throughout and they turn into sprinkles when matched with like colors. Passed first try using the sprinkle/checkmark tip. 3 stars 6 moves left.

Angela said...

I played this round several times. On my last try the color bombs just luckily made themselves. Cleaned up the last yellows with no moves left.

Tammy Caison said...

Another tough one. Need some luck here!

Tammy Caison said...

1st try no check booster. Made a color bomb and used with a stripe. Carefully made more combos with the popped corns that turned to cbs. Only 2 stars, but ill take it!
