Candy Crush Saga Level 1897

Hints and tips showing how to pass level 1897 Candy Crush Saga without boosters by Cookie
Clear all the jelly in only 13 moves.
This is now a hard level and you need to really think about your moves carefully. First use a stripe or wrap to remove the marmalade from the candy in the middle of the board, this will allow the candies to fall into the bottom right section.
Then you'll need to clear the cream blockers along the bottom which will allow the candies to go into the other two sections.
After that it's just combos to clear the jelly.
Don't waste moves as there are not many and you can't afford any wasted ones.
It may take a couple of goes to get the hang of where the candies move, but the bottom right section is the easiest to work in, it will bring candies down from the top left and cause cascades which may also give you specials.
Try to switch a colourbomb with a stripe or a wrap, this will clear a lot of jelly and may also leave you with more special candies. If you can't switch a colourbomb with anything straight away just use it on a single colour and it may well leave you with another colourbomb.
The video below starts with 20 moves but the game is completed in 14 so it is almost there. The strategy remains the same, specials and combos.

It's only 13 moves on the iPad, not 20!

susieq said...

And on the iPhone so not so easy!

Don said...

Why is it every time I check a level I'm having trouble with, it's because the iPad version is soooooo many less moves or a higher score to reach? Why 2 versions? I don't feel like digging out my laptop for these levels or waiting for them to update the iPads.

20 moves on PC, 13 on Android...why why why why why

joy said...

Doesn't work on my pc - it shows i m on 1887,although my android says its synced (to 1897).i ve tried logout from both pc and mobile. very frustrated.

joy said...

Oh well. Passed it on mobile with 13 moves. Had to use a hand and a lollipop though. Almost could not make it because I only had the 2 boosters and only 1 move left.

Help I am on this level on my tablet, but my phone and laptop are 20 levels behind and won't synch despite connecting. Any tips, don't want to log out of tablet in case it logs back into 20 behind

Crushed said...

2nd board in and yet again King handicaps the mobile users.
HEY KING, this crap is getting old!!!!!
What do you pay your programers??
I want a job, the way I see it working for you or being a weatherman are 2 of the best jobs. Can screw things up and not get fired.

Crushed said...

Passed it even with Kin's BS handicapping mobile users.
Took 3 swaps, 2 hammers and using all the boosters and winning 5 extra moves. Even tho the fish didn't really help. They never showed back up after the initial one at the start.

This is for all of you going on to the next level. READ Ms Cookies advice and take it. It's a hard level and I was stuck on the damn thing for 2 days before I read her advice. I passed it just a few tries later.

Why won't devices sync anymore?? Been stuck k on this level on my phone for over a week now on my tablet I'm now on the next world?

Jeff said...

... can't pass with 13 moves and can no longer sync with pc ... could these jackasses possibly rig a game and screw their long time players any more than this?

2cats said...

I only play on my PC and only have 13 moves...how are others getting 20 moves?? I can't seem to get anywhere with only 13 moves. Ugh!

I think this website has become obsolete as most times we come here for tips, everything has changed and the videos do not show the games we play. Maybe King can show these players do it as we do.

13 moves on PC.

I had only 13 moves on my PC. I used a jellyfish booster and got it with 2 moves remaining. If you can get a cascade going somehow it is not a hard level. Made some chocolate bombs and cleared the rest of the board.

Only 13 moves on ipad

Andulamb said...

Finally got it when I selected all three available boosters -- color bomb, striped and wrapped candies, and the jelly fish. I then got the color bomb next to the wrapped candy, which resulted in a fairly open board after just 2 or 3 moves. After that it was easy.

current3 said...

I don't understand why there are 2 versions either. I can only play these games on my computer. This level is very hard with only 13 moves.

Lorraine said...

Good one King. Penalizing us who use mobile version with only 13 moves. Why can't you have it the same no matter what you play on. Very hard with only 13 moves :(

How to even clear this board with just 13 moves?

Anonymous said...

Well, this level is a big fat snore fest. Played this one continuously for 2 hours, and didn't pass it. On day 3 now, playing over and over and over and over... I could be wrong, but I thought games were supposed to be fun.

I have been frustrated with and annoyed by this level for about a week, playing on the iPad. When I read that this was another case of being harder on mobile, with the iPad having 13 moved but a PC having 20, I decided to play this level on the PC. On the PC, I have only 13 levels still! So either it has been "fixed" for consistency is a lousy way, or I'm just experiencing a seriously unfortunate glitch. Either way, enough is enough. I've gotten down to 4 jellies -- I think I even got down to 2, once -- but I can't rely on that AT ALL so there's no sense in my continuing to use up boosters. And I've used up just about all my boosters. Horrible!

Mickey2Eyes said...

Keep trying. The right board will fall for you ANON. Good luck to you

Mickey2Eyes said...

Try it again and let us know

Only 13 moves on my laptop.....not fair !!!

Anonymous said...

Only 13 moves now on laptop as well. How many others are actually finding that it is more fun to play some of the old levels from time to time than the new levels?

Anonymous said...

Ridiculously hard with only 13 moves. My first fives tries had 18, 26, 16, 35, 28 jellies remaining. Played a few more times and got down to only needing 5 more with two moves to go. Used a hand switch to make a striped/wrapped which got rid of three of the jellies in the top right then I used another hand switch in the bottom left to make the same combo to get rid of the remaining two jellies top left.

Very difficult with 13 moves instead of 20 in video. Have gotten down to five remaining. If I had 7 more moves, I would complete the level .
This is unfair to penalize people playing on an iPad. It is happening so often. Should show video with 13 moves.

Anonymous said...

Not just iPad's that have less moves, people. So don't feel like you're singled out. We have the exact same issue on a PC. Boo hoo. Only 13 moves. Be good to see smarty pants, Ms Cookie Kirby, do a video with only 13 moves.

Anonymous said...

Ashamed to say this but I have been fighting this level for 2 weeks...this is just ridiculous. I like a challenge as good as the next person but come on. I have wasted way to much of my life in 20l6 on this game...I think it's time to take my life back in 2017. Don't need useless aggravation in my life.

Anonymous said...

Why are you telling us that there are 20 moves? Either on pc or smart phone the moves are ONLY 13!! Meaning we have to wait for the miracle board! Ridiculous....:(

Unknown said...

When the level first comes out they don't know how to set the difficulty level until they see people playing. Often then it will be adjusted one way or another. We have seen it go the other direction too like timed levels made easier, etc. Ms. Cookie has to play on computer otherwise you wouldn't see the video.

Unknown said...

Yep, only 13 moves now and classified as super hard. Once again, where can I find a good blog for boards as they are now? Everything's changed drastically.

Unknown said...

Only 13 moves ... not 20 as shown in the video. why is this?

Denise said...

This is hard!!!

Anonymous said...

Yet again the video player gets 20 moves to our 13. Come on king keep it fair and stop with the rigged games. It's boring..

Only 13 moves now..need to wait for a right board..

You need your 18 moves stuck where the sun don't shine .

Sorry I meant 13 moves .Would love to have 18 .

MissyM said...

Playing on PC. Have 13 moves. Cannot get anywhere near clearing the board even after using Choc Sprinkle/Stripe Wrap/Fish from my stash of boosters to start.
Once into the game I have been nowhere close enough to anything to use a Hammer or a Switch.
We don't get a Hammer on the Daily Calendar so have to hope for a Hammer when the Sugar Drops build. They seem few and far between. Can't waste them.
Hoping this post will send me a lucky board. Canada

MissyM said...

After posting (above) I came back to try this one yet again and made it with One Star. The Fish ate the last of the candies on the last move I had left. I used a lot of Boosters trying to get through this one, and actually feel that I wasted them.
Good luck to those still struggling. Canada

Carole said...

Really hard. I guess i have to wait for a lucky board

newhorizon said...

Still waiting for lucky board. It is boaring level. Will try for another 1 day otherwise uninstall. So much headache.

Anonymous said...

I don't get daily calendar treats on candy crush why? Hard level will have to wait for lucky break still better than a timer

Anonymous said...

I get calendar boosters each day, I don't know why you don't ^

Posting for luck, it's tough!

IZZy said...

Only 13 moves on PC. Tried at least 20 times and get nowhere near clearing it. Seems Impossible!

Meg said...

Using all boosters and getting nowhere.

Anonymous said...

I started with 13 moves on the iPhone. You're essentially just playing for the chance that a stripe will fall next to a color bomb or that you can maneuver a stripe next to a color bomb. The former happened to me by luck with 1 move left. I probably had like 7-10 jelly still outstanding (don't really remember as I had given up already), but the stripes cleared the board.

There may theoretically be some skill involved in passing this level, but it's something like at least 98% luck.

Unknown said...

Hard level. Need lucky board.

Anonymous said...

So bored on this level. It's obviously passable but I may keel over from nausea first. I need a lucky board king please.
