Hints and tips showing how to pass level 2117 Candy Crush Saga without boosters by Jose Savelkoul
Level 2117 is classified as a hard level so you can expect to lose a few lives before you manage to pass it.
Level 2117 is classified as a hard level so you can expect to lose a few lives before you manage to pass it.
The goal of this level is to collect 60 icing and 60 striped candies within 25 moves.
You need a lot of luck on this level as you have to rely on the lucky candies and cascades to give you most of the stripes and cream you need.
Clear some of the candies below the dispensers as much as you can and hope for cascades take over.
You don’t need to clear all the icing in the bottom right corner because you get plenty of icing from the lucky candies.
You don’t need to clear all the icing in the bottom right corner because you get plenty of icing from the lucky candies.
However clearing the icing blockers below the dispenser in the bottom right corner gives you a chance to get many more cascades.
Watch out for the bombs in the bottom right if you do decide to clear the cream blockers there, they only give you 10 moves so take care not to ignore them too long.
Another one of those levels where you have to rely on luck a lot to have any chance.

Once I only needed three more stripes, but other than that, I haven't been close.
I haven't come close to getting the order at all. I have been working on this level for a few days. It is also a very boring level. Just mindlessly pushing around the candies and hoping just by luck you will achieve a win is not fun at all.
Very hard, took me 12 moves to complete it with 3 stars.
I just want to complete it, I don't care about stars. The video is absurdly lucky, as usual. Many times three same-color lucky candies fall. I don't think I've ever had that happen. How many hundreds of times will I have to play this to get that lucky?
I've just completed this level out of pure luck and with a little help from my frieds! I had been given +3 moves and I begun with a color bomb. Luckily at the 3rd move a stripe came next to the color bomb and I had 12 stripes in one move. Move by move I completed it at the LAST move with one star.
hahahaha, another stupid level, just moving pieces too long and no result at all. O yeah, shuffeling the candy's two times in a row or only moving in the left box without any specials?
Very strange!
Okay so after a day or so -- maybe 15 times playing it, got the lucky board. It WILL come. I used a handswitch with one move remaining to ensure two lucky candies were stripes, then set off a chain reaction to get six stripes in the last move.
It is worth noting that there will be a maximum of 5 lucky candies on the board at any one time - so use them!! If you get stuck with 5 lucky candies on the board and can't use them because the blockers get in the way, no more will fall. Might be worth using a lollipop to start the cascades going again. Good luck everyone.
What an aweful level, 60 strips in so few moves. Sometimes I got stuck with still over 35 stripes to go. Ridiculous and no fun. It's getting more and more annoying since we passed level 2000. I'm totaly adicted to this stupid game, but it's irritating me more and more day by day...
Good luck from the Netherlands!
Playing for few days not even closed WTH is wrong with this level
This level relies purely on luck so it's not worth wasting your boosters. After many days of play I finally passed this level on my 62nd attempt...most of which didn't even come close to the order level required. Yesterday for some strange reason one of the lucky candies spawned a colour bomb (which it had never done in any of the previous 61 attempts!). I was able to match the colour bomb with a striped candy and get a chance at finally cracking this level. I got down to the last go and used a hand switch to create a striped/wrapped combo which pushed me over the final total. Whew. A hideous level which relies totally on luck.
Am not getting anywhere near the required number of stripes, have to keep playing and waiting for a lucky board, its soooooo boring
We all know we can do it if we just keep trying. What finally worked for me after fifty tries or so is making plays in the middle of the lower box, keeping the specials dropping with every move and swapping stripes or stripes and wraps to pop the maximum number of specials each time. Opened up the lower right box with three moves and 21 stripes to go and finished out with one hand switch that I don't think I really needed. Good luck! GC
Posting for luck.
Ok, this is probably the end of the line for me. Impossible level.
King needs to do something about this ridiculous level. Most of the time I give up half way through because it's impossible and quite frankly, annoying. All the mystery candies just turn into blockers which just clog up the board. This will be the end for me unless something changes
I played it about a hundred times and when I actually succeeded it was because I was able to clear the right bottom square with blockers. I got a couple of nice surprise eggs - color bomb and combined that with a stripe, that did the trick. Starting with a color bomb is not usefull at all since there is not enough space on the board yet to get enough stripes out of it, and the color bomb won't last for long. So I would say opening the space full of blockers is crutial here.
Posting for luck!
Not even close after 3 days.
I am looking for some help here, please!....no matter what method I use, i.e. start upper left, lower left, upper right, clear bottom right, etc.....I can't even come close...am I doing something wrong?? If playing is no longer fun or even a challenge, why bother? Can someone give me a hint? I know a lot of LUCK is involved here, but not even coming close is getting pretty boring...thanks!
I played literally over 100 times. Got to a board which self perpetuated explosion after explosion with wrapped package. I never tried to clear the bottom right during any of these innumerable tries. Good riddance level 2117!
Like all of us gotten this far in the game consider ourselves pretty good at the strategy in some levels but this has to be the worst episode to date I think 4 hard levels in a row and even some of the easier Ines could have been classified hard. Seems you spend time collecting the bonuses and then use them all on the next episode if the next one is as bad I think I might be finished. I don't mind hard levels but you have to have a few fun ones as well
Have found this episode fun and not frustrating so far. I did play this level and the last one on the pc. Got this one on the first try. You need stripe combos and stripe wrap combos. They make the cascades start. Had 13 stripes left with two moves left and the cascades did it so don't give up.
Last comment by Cher just makes no sense...
I finally got my lucky board, played for about 4 days when all of a sudden all of these moves just keep on going, on their own. ZERO skill involved, just play until you get that board.
DO NOT waste boosters.
This entire episode has been a joke. It should be called "pass only with luck and a handful of boosters". I feel sorry for those with no boosters. Looks like I will be on this level for awhile.
I had one move left and needed two stripes! I used a hand swap to reveal two stripes and was able to crush them. Took about 10 tries. Most times I didn't get anywhere near the number of stripes needed. Lucky board.
I started with a Candy bomb and luckily saved it until I got a stripe beside it. Even though it didn't have a lot of that color, it started a good cascade. I then luckily got a striped and a bomb that I combined. I finished with several moves remaining. Good luck! btw..how do you tell how many times you have played a level?
On a side note, I never knew you could "reset" the game until about 3 weeks ago, that has been an amazing discovery, thanks to those that posted it.
Impossible level
This level is atrocious. Boring, tedious, and frustrating. Has it been iPad vetted? Seems impossible to pass.
Played on iPad and couldn't get less than 50 stripes then the next time I played it I got plenty of stripes and passed with four turns left. I really thought it would take days but I must have got the lucky board. The only thing I can suggest is that I set off the stripes through the middle column when I could so they always hit the lucky candy which in turn became stripes or blocks. Everything was blowing up like mad so I just kept it up. Don't know if I it helped but I passed so go figure.
I thought I'd never get through this level. Did not use boosters. Finally got to a point where I cleared the blockers on the lower right side. Then bombs fell. Cleared a couple of bombs and lucky candies fell and fortunately got a sprinkle/stripe combo. I did have to add 5 moves for 10 bars to complete the level. Glad I saved up some bars from the treasure chests. Lollipops could have worked, too, if I'd have some, but the sprinkle/stripe did wonders.
King has truly list THIER minds!! Are they joking 😳😳😳😳😳😳
King has truly lost their minds!!😩😩😩😳😳😳😩😳😩😳😩😳😩
This level is not possible to pass on an iPad. I've been trying for days now and have not come even remotely close. Hopefully King will update it so that we can finally move on.
Eventually I passed this stupid level through sheer luck. I can't see any strategy in it at all. Keep trying and I hope you get a lucky board too.
This level is a cruel joke. I have never even come close and I even had 6 hours of unlimited lives after I made a purchase of boosters, ugh!
Another frustrating level... half of the moves are forced moves that do nothing. Sigh. Not wasting boosters on this one either. It will go when it's ready..... waste of my time.
Was using android, passed on PC after 3rd try.
Playing on iPad. But not for much longer I fear. Totally cheesed of with this boring , impossible level. Played for 3 days now, tried all combinations of boosters which were wasted. Refuse to waste more. Will just have to wait for king to give me that lucky board I guess, if I can stand it much longer. I don't mind difficult levels if they are challenging and require skill, but this one fulfills neither of those requirements. Rubbish level, luck based.
Need a lucky board CC
4 days on this now and not even close. Just played on game and the last ten moves didn't give me a lucky candy. Or should I say an unlucky candy. I wish this had game had been in the first set of levels I would have given the game up 3 years ago.
What an absolute waste of time.
This level is not hard, more like impossible. Limit moves, limited space. I've come so far, and passed so many levels. I just don't see passing this one. And why so few comments?
I just do not understand why there are so many levels that need LUCK instead of proper planning to get through the level????? Is absolutely a waste of time! Can't we have a better design of each level instead of purely depend on LUCK LUCK LUCK LUCK LUCK???
CC, are there going to be anymore games that require any skill whatsoever? If it's going to be sheer luck, might as well go to the casino! Ugh
This level is a piece of junk. Can't even get close. This level is boring.
Just passed the last 3 impossible levels with thanks to lucky boards now I am stuck with a hard level wtf is going on I want fun levels not this shit
This level was pure luck! No skill. Either the cascades happen or they don't!
Have been playing for a week, and haven't gotten close. But I'm so over it, not fun to play anymore.
Impossible, to few moves for this level.
I believe the strategy to get cascades is to play the lower left square as much as possible. When it no longer has moves try to make moves that will change candies in that square. (Such as hitting a vertical strip in the square above it.) When the lower left has moves again make them there.
And to add to my comment above, reset the board until you have an opening move in that lower left square.
WHY do I keep playing this game, impossible to use skill anymore! Frustrated
Sadly, this level has made me hate this game. Although I've spent money on boosters (which I normally don't do), I think I will delete this nuisance from my life.
Just gotta keep going until I gar a lucky board, and I am bored!
Like someone said before only 5 lucky candies will be on the board at any one time. Use them. I got a semi lucky board my 4th game. Using what people said here I tried to get as many as possible. I used my last move and had only 1 block and 17 stripes left. I was playing on my phone and was saving my spin a wheel for free moves. I was lucky and got 15 more moves. I used one move to clear the last block, which means that the rest of the lucky moves would turn into stripes. I used a hand switch to move to stripes together in the middle column. I switched them and it set off cascades. I ended up using all the moves but finished this horrible level. Good luck all!
I seem to be doing this more and more lately... it's getting OLD!
POSTING FOR LUCK!

Luck please
Another friggin level where you got to rely on luck. Which makes a boring game. King must be running out of ideas. Getting very board with CC.
It gets worse. Never getting even close to passing the level is bad enough. I just had a perfectly bad round. 25 moves, not 1 icing or stripe. For 25 moves, the only move I had was in the upper right. There was always a move, so it never shuffled. There was not one check ever, so no stripes or icing. This level has to be someones idea of a sick joke.

Agree boring boring boring and so frustrating!
After board after board of driving me mad, I got hugely lucky on this. I got it on the 3rd try on iPhone with no boosters and still had 9 moves left when I entered candy crush.
The trick is to try to match wrapped and striped as much as possible. Then I got hugely lucky and got a major cascade and it did all the work for me. So while luck appears to be a major factor, it is possible without boosters or extra moves.
Third day of this crap level. Got it on fifth try of the day. All luck. On my last move I still needed 28 stripes. The game cascaded for a looooong time. When the smoke cleared I had three stars.
Finally!
DON'T give up early! This happened on the last move.
MB
Out come all of the cry babies saying they're going to quit because they can't pass it soon. Your whining gets old. Take the freaking challenge.
I'm about to give up. Day after day of not even getting close.
Passed first try. Was easy. You're all a bunch of fucking dick heads so go fuck yourselves.
Same here. ☹️️
Ok I used all three pre-game boosters. Switched my Sprinkle with my stripe. Still needed 1 stripe with 1 move left then used a lollipop to set off a stripe from the board to pass.
impossible
Another very boring level that requires nothing but luck.
This level is the pits!!
Been playing for over 1 week. I'm not getting any cascades (or at least no major ones). The lucky candies usually transform into icing which often blocks the lucky candy dispenser...
I'm really desperate by now... would gladly buy extra moves, but I'm never getting even close to make it worth buying them...
Posting for luck
For god's sake, King, please close down your business before embarrassing yourself further with all these crap levels.
Definitely the strategy is playing the bottom left box. I was getting nowhere and then read that tip hidden here and tried that and finally got all of the blocks and 12 stripes left on my next try. A few more failed attempts and I passed. Make sure to have a move there, then only make moves in that box when you can. Second option is something that breaks one in it (vertical stripe above), last choice is upper right box when nothing else to do. But that was literally the trick. The only one that helped, so thanks to whomever posted it!! Good luck- aps
Watching your vid and me actually playing this level is like a Before and After of some performance enhancing drug;) yours is fireworks after fireworks when mine is dead quiet. Send me some of your power and good luck this way please!
Been on this one for 3 or 4 days. Haven't ever been close. Haven't seen any cascading like in the video. Guess I'm stuck here until the lucky board shows up.
Pl pl want a lucky break !!! This is soooooo impossible ... At it for days now !! So enough !'m
Yeah! The nightmare is over! Cascading is the way to go.
Stupid level. Simply not enough of the required ingredients falling. Post fpr luck
The key for me was playing the bottom left , keeps the cascades moving
This is getting old now. Usually I can get the blocks but no where near on the stripes. Stupid crap that requires a lucky board sucks! And there's toooo many levels like that. Not even posting for luck cause that doesn't work either 😬
Playing for drops now - can't even get close. No cascades to speak of. Cleared the bottom right to no avail. Guess it's up to King now to ever let me pass this ridiculous level. 😡
Garbage...AGAIN. Thanks, King.
Seriously? Pretty ballsy posting that mess as Anonymous. Pretty sure you didn't pass on the first try.
OK, so just posting for luck because that is what you're going to NEED!!! ugh! boring ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Lori
$!#%&* level is stupid! !!!
total waste of time
wow - what a lucky board will do. I got several cascades, and with one move left, had 8 stripes to go. I had 8 stripes on the board, but scattered between the boxes so I knew I couldn't knock them out by doing a stripe/stripe. I used the flying saucer and that did it. Three stars - and done with it!
Posting IMPOSSIBLE for Good Luck!!
Played a hundred times. There is no way this can be done in 25 moves.
Wasted loads of my time on this level, time to get a life I think!
No way can this be done without king help!
Clear the bottom right hand corner and you will be rewarded with enough cascades to finish the level.
No were near posting for luck
Need the lucky board King!No sense wasting time anymore.Are you ever going to stop these pure luck levels?
This level is impossible.Total waste of time even trying.Why King?Is this what you have come to?Hire someone who can create games you can play.Very upset with what has happened since level2000!
Ridiculous level!
Got a lucky board and got my blockers early, so the lucky candies gave me all stripes, which made lots of cascades. 7 stripes short at the end, so spent 10 freebie gold bars on five extra moves. Only needed one of them to win. Glad that's over!
How do you get a lucky board?Help.Ready to quit!
Total and complete luck. Took about 50 tries. I did work the lower left box as much as possible causing cascades.
Yes, all luck. With 20 stripes still to go and only 2 more moves, I got a huge long cascade and ended up with 3 stars. I'm ready to quit though-- all luck no skill levels are no fun at all. This one took me too way too long.
Cascading on the last move and then 1 more stripe needed. Not fair! Lots of times just regular candies for 10 moves and a lot of shuffling. That's boring.
How can you ensure what a lucky candy will become?!? I thought it was totally random...
Woohoo! Passed on my second attempt with your advice!
Just keep working the middle column of each box. When combining stripes, make sure to take the option that hits stripes in other boxes as well. Obvious, but easy to forget.
Also, the tip above about only five lucky candies is helpful as well. You have to keep using them as quickly as you get them or they will dry up.
Good grief!! I can't even get close! I'm getting discouraged. I've read most of the comments, but any strategies???
Help! Still not even close!
Wow I must be on some kind of roll! I got the last two games first try. Either that or they have nerfed them. Totally effortless to get this one. I just sat back and and watched it happen. I was hoping that happened to everyone.......
Need some luck!
After many unsuccessful attempts, I think the key (along with a lucky board) is to try and get as many upand down striped candies on the bottom left square, in the middle. This takes out the middle column all the way to the top and allows for more ?s to drop and sets off more chain reactions. Good luck!
From the number of blogs I can tell this is going to be a hard one.
Video has a lot of cascading. Need a lucky board to get that effect.
Each level is getting harder and harder. Need a lucky board.
The icings aren't as hard to get as the striped candies. Very difficult level.
60 stripes is so hard. Been on this level so long. Need a lucky board that will give more cascading.
This level is all about luck, not skill. Been on this too long. Wish I can move on.
Been on this level I,think longer than any other level. Cannot get the level,of cascades as on the video. Seems like luck is needed. Not much skill used.
I don't get cascades, just lots of shuffles. Can't even get close though I did ONCE manage to get all the blockers.
No idea how to win this level. Very frustrating!
The best I got so far was down to 38 stripes left. Yikes! No end in sight.
Got it at last. Three moves left and three stars. Pure luck.
I don't mind hard levels when it seems like you have some control and can use strategy. This level is pure luck and extremely frustrating when you can't come close to winning. One of the games I played at this level kept me in the upper left corner and wouldn't drop any lucky candies. If they can't create better games, they should just stop and end the saga.
What an awful level
No end in sight.
OMG finally passed this levl thanks to'Mort's' helmet bonus which had stripe beside sprinkled choc and 3 extra moves!!
Almost afraid to see what next level brings!
how on earth do you beat this been on it for days?????
give this one another day . if I don't get it I am done.
OMG This isnt gaming anymore, but just waiting for a lucky level. I think I gonna leave CCS and find a REAL game !!!
Have played probably up to 75 times. Not even close. Posting in hopes of the only way to pass "Lucky Board" !!
Creating cascades worked for me. Work in the lower left corner. Study the board, looking for the move that will give you the best chance to hit as many check marks as possible. Good luck!
Why is this game always these days relying on playing till the board comes up that lets you pass a level. This is getting so boring, nearly every game is a hard level now, with the odd exception. I keep saying that I'm going to quit, but like some addiction I can never quite turn away, you have to have just one more go. You know you eventually get through and you say to yourself the next one will be easier, which of course it's not, just more of the same. So you end up In that catch 22 and Going around in circles. Is there a candy crush AA I can join, as I really do need to get my life back, and get way from this tediously boring game.
Others have said the same thing but I agree DO NOT WASTE BOOSTERS ON THIS LEVEL. I've tried that many times and have actually gotten closer a few times when I didn't use them so it's just a matter of time til the lucky board comes. The real question is why do I keep trying?? LOL
Mort's magical helmet will not work with this one! On the iPad this is classified as a Super Hard Level.
This is now an absolute waste of time.....this level will never be done unless you get a lucky board. This game has gotten to be a very poor excuse for a game that used to be interesting and challenging. I will play my five lives each day and no more. Getting tired of it and feel like they are too. They should just end it and move on to a new and challenging game for those of who have been such loyal fans!
Don't waste boosters another lucky board.
Posting for luck. What a crap level.
After playing NUMEROUS times, it is obvious that you just need a lucky board.....once again.
So boring and so absurd!
Need a break from this stupid level!
KING....this is impossible and needs to be changed.
This is pointless...I give up!
Wonder if King will ever make this one doable....just saying!
This is total crap....shame on you and your team King.
Finding myself playing CC less and less because of this dreadful impossible level.
Guess I am not destined to beat this one...😕😕
Literally have played this level hundreds of times to no avail!
This one just about made me quit. I tried focusing on the bottom left square and of course, tried to get the middle candies. Thank you to the person who warned you could only have 5 check marks at a time. Nothing was worse than having 5 check marks and inanely moving things around because that was my only move. I started with a stripe next to a sprinkle to give me a little head start. Still took 3 hammers to finally just hit stripes and get done what needed to be done. Horrific level.
Concentrate on completing the blocker requirement as the lucky candies will give only stripes then. Cascades are what you want as I was collecting multiple stripes in one move due to cascades. Had to use my gold bars for an extra 5 moves... only needed two.
95% luck like most of Candy Crush.
The only way to complete this level is with a bunch of long cascades. With the small board size you can't see what pieces are coming next and try to plan and create cascades yourself. This level is all luck. King has a lot of really badly designed levels from a game theory perspective, but good levels for tricking people into spending money to progress. Don't fall for it.
The hardest thing to collect are the striped candies. It's going to take an enormous amount of luck to pass this one. The only decent thing about this level is that it's very easy to collect sugar drops and rewards.
I'm sure I'll be stuck on this one for weeks. Posting for luck.
Got it after around 20 attempts. I phone, no boosters and 2 stars. Keep the play to the left hand boxes switching stripes in the bottom box where possible and keeping to the centre line. We've had a hell of a lot worse. Keep the faith!
I read the comments here before I played. The real gold nuggets of advice were start with a sprinkle and a stripe. Play the lower left board to avoid The bombs until the end. While making stripes, do what you can to fill the icing order. That way all of the mystery candies will turn into stripes.
I have played this a hundred times and only one time did I have candy in the space between the two squared in the middle, the kind of invisible square with the tick on it. Why is no one talking about that square. Why did it only have candy in it once?
Vic, what the hell are you talking about? there is no square in the middle on this level....sure you're talking about 2017??
Mind- numbing.
Posting again for luck. Still waiting for a lucky board. Can't even come close. :(
A week and never coming close - a total time waster. Boosters are useless. Extra time doesn't help either.
Useful tip, thanks. 😃
Irritating level. Impossible...no fun
Definitely lucky to read this page. Every time I get stuck I come here and then manage to do the level pretty quickly. Did this one on the second try after reading this page, after previously being stuck for ages.
How is this not classified a hard level?? It's totally pure luck. Which I need as I'm getting quite bored.
I agree with you Browing Kerr.
I have had it with no booster, but I had to buy 5 moves more.
Been on this far a while....
A little help please- lucky board 😊
WTH this level is bloody awful! This is the end of the line for me...
This level isn’t beyond a joke. Sooooooo boring Zzzzzzzzz
Bring back the fun levels not impossible levels that just pee everyone off!! So done
Bloody awful level need a fcking lucky board please cheers Katrina
I was able to complete this level after many tries by starting with a color bomb and strip side by side (reset till you get that). I then made a effort to clear the bottom right and get all the mystery candies which helped with cascades and strips. Thanks for all the tips.
Got it first try starting with just the green helmet. Played under the dispensers until I got a stripped one square away from a CB, & used a hand switch to bring it down. After that switch it was easy, 6 moves left.
Just another one based on luck!! Omg!!!
First dozen times I played I was nowhere close and thought this was going to be one of Those Levels. Then I got a lucky board - striped/wrapped next to one another in top right block a couple of times which helped take out lots of icing and ended up finishing with 8 moves to spare.
Another ridiculous level. It might be a fun level if you had enough moves and there were no blockers. Maybe I will get a lucky board in the near future.
Oh for goodness sake, it took me days to pass the last level and now this! There's only 7 seconds on my bombs too. I need to quit this game. Lucky board please.
What an unfair level. The board does not have any moves to clear the blockers to get to the ingredients. So so boring to play the same level over and over with no moves that are productive.
done at about 15 tries , needed 2 more stripes so i used 10 gold bars
OK, obviously it's just me but I have checked and double checked and my 2117 is nothing like the one here. It's equally annoying and boring but nothing like this one. Must have been changed all the way somehow. Anyways, still need a very lucky board for this one too.
Please help!
