Candy Crush Saga Level 2685 Tips and video

Hints and tips showing how to pass level 2685 Candy Crush Saga without boosters by Cookie
This has been made into a hard level by reducing the moves to only 12!
You'll need plenty of combos and pay special attention to the two squares that a separated from the main playing area, these have to be cleared using combos or colourbombs.
The candies drop through the portals into the different areas of the board and the bottom right section is the "bottom" of the board so making moves there will clear the most jelly and create cascades.
Colourbomb/wrap and colourbomb/stripe combos are needed if you are to clear this level in the moves available.

Tried double chocolate sprinkles and fish with no luck. Too many bombs and only 12 moves.

Anonymous said...

This is NOT an easy level!! Only 12 moves on Android and 6-count bombs!
I started with a sprinkle/wrap combo and a fish booster and I still had to use 2 hammers to get rid of the last jelly!

Jan said...

Waarom hebben wij 12 zetten en iedere keer in de voorbeelden veel meer. Dit is geen eerlijk spel op deze manier.

This is a hard level with only 12 moves. I can't get past the bombs. Posting for luck!

Posting a video has no use since a very long time.
And it is no fun not seeing a new video, because that fairly easy and simpel jelly level is long gone.

It is no fun creating levels and change them dramatically a few day after release.if the creators don't have the time to do a decent 15 levels (and test them!), them just stop the weekly struggle.

I'd like to see King's "master" game creator do this level in 12 moves, with 6count timers and 55 jellies! Impossible, even with a plethora of boosters. King has removed all of the fun and all of the challenge from this game. It is beyond boring waiting for the lucky board. So sad.

Unknown said...

Cookie, your videos are not helpful when you play with 23 moves and we only get 12. Please help us tell King that giving us 12 moves takes the fun out of it and that all platforms should be the same.

I like a challenge but 12 moves is impossible not a challenge. Come on lucky board

JayDee said...

Same here

Lucia said...

I did this with a slew of boosters (mostly from the spaceship). I agree that telling us it's a "fairly easy level" merely adds to the frustration after the moves have been reduced to an impossibly small number.

Brown dog said...

Come on give us a break, All I do is play 5 fast games then it's over.I would hate to quit after coming so far

Jimmy said...

2678 and this level have been butchered by greedy King. Posting for a lot of luck. 6 jellies left is closest I've got with no boosters

Roger75 said...

Only 12 moves... it's not an easy level. Posting for luck.

Quit changing the number of moves, only the top top top of the players get tons of moves, and we get 12 moves and too many low count bombs!!! Posting for luck, give us a fighting chance

Unknown said...

Thanks for nothing, Cookie. You really should pay attention to the changes and adjust your tips accordingly.

Unknown said...

For the record - disco ball and wrapped switched. Also added fish booster. Cleared with 3 stars and 6 moves left. Lucky I guess.

Maria Fernanda said...

I have 12 moves and a lot of bombs!

I got a lucky board and blew it...ughhh! Please help!

Judypr said...

Didn't come close with many attempts and then I switched to Safari. The game there has 23 moves -- got it first try with nine moves left!

Anonymous said...

12 moves is ridiculous!

Anonymous said...

If you have access to Internet explorer, you get 23 moves!!!!

Started with all 3 boosters, several times. Reset until stripe wrap would hit the two loners. CB was in the lower right area and used it to hit one of the loner colors...kept trying to make matches in lower right as Candy said. Finished in 11 moves. Used up maybe 5 of each starter boosters though. Next one is fun but not so easy either. D

I don't think Cookie should be blamed for King's game design.

Not enough moves and the bombs count down too quickly...ugh!

oomasangels said...

NOT ENOUGH MOVES FOR THIS LEVEL!!! RIDICULOUS!

Anonymous said...

Please CC. Only 12 moves. Impossible! Please fix this asap

cvp said...

only 12 moves if I play on my android!! Even with boosters it's impossible. I wait again for the "lucky board" I am ready to call it quits

Cathy said...

I can't understand why they have to go back and mage levels harder! Sounding like a cry baby, it's just not fair! Lol good luck everyone!

Cathy said...

I agree. 🤔

Cathy said...

Cookie is nothing but a huge help! She can't help if King decides to change the level. You could ask nicely if she'd re-do the new level. Even then, it depends on the board you receive. Her videos just show is possible. You probably would get more help by reading the comments to get strategies and tips.

Anonymous said...

This level is the nail for me. Just been getting worse and worse. Thanks for all the help I found with you, cookie, and the commenters over the years! I'm moving on to crunch time. Good luck all!

Lou said...

Agree with a lot of the above.
Not Cookies fault King change the game.
I couldn't get it before they changed to bombs, lesser moves and now decide it is a super hard level.
I have no hope now :-)
Why change it anyway........aaarrrrggghhhhh

Anonymous said...

Very frustrating!

Unknown said...

Why are these help videos getting 24 moves and I am given only 12? It would be hard with 24 but it is impossible with 12 moves!!!!!

Anonymous said...

I just. Discovered that playing on king.com, not Facebook, there are 23 moves

Anonymous said...

12 moves, impossible, may be time to break this addiction

Anonymous said...

I agree. Just not nearly enough moves. Frustrating.

Alexiusp21 said...

as of 23 aug, on android, update the app, and you now get 23 moves.

Monorma said...

The level has only 12 movements and not 23 as in the video. I have been trying to pass it for two days. At the end I succed with a lucky board where I could match 2 combos colourbomb/stripe achieving just 1 jelly left (the lonely square in the middle of the board). So I decided to try 5 more movements spending 10 gold bars and succeed passing it with a combo of 2 strips.

Peanut said...

Why don't you sad people all stop moaning. I've just completed the level with 12 moves, it's possible. Two colour bombs together. Enjoy suffering everyone

Unknown said...

Just passed in Android, no booster used nor extra help from spaceship. Mine is still the old 12 moves. I got cb+stripe combo, twice. Ended with 1 move left. 3 stars. Lotsa luck needed for this.

Lyon said...

This is definitely need a lot of luck.. i need lucky board then..

PuspitaHassei said...

I have logged in to IE, King.com, Android app AND FB, and all I see is 12 moves. such garbage. I guess I'm posting for luck like everyone else....

Anonymous said...

First post. Never spent a dime. It appears this is the level that King will use to get rid of us freeloaders. :)

Unknown said...

I only have 12 moves also!!!

Anonymous said...

Just done this with 12 moves on an iPad ending with 1 move spare. No boosters. You need a ver lucky board and I made a CB/wrap combo and a CB stripe combo. Just got lots of cascades and luck. Very little skill. Good luck. Just thought you might want to know it is possible!

Anonymous said...

Good tip from Unknown Aug 19. Reset CB/Wrap combo with fish until plenty of colors matched wrap. Done 1st try. Thanks for tip.

Anonymous said...

Same here. 12 moves is hopeless

Turkeylady3 said...

Are you freaken kidding me 23 moves I have 12 Just when u think they can't screw their players any worse they more than cut in half the moves Label it super hard level Well no shot guys This is one of the most asinine levels I've seen them rig to lose

Just passed this level with no boosters after about 20 tries. Got that lucky board where stripe wrap combos occurred where I needed them for the two satellite squares. It can be done, good luck!

Flippenheck said...

Need luck as only 12 moves

Flippenheck said...

Oops I have 18 moves...keep trying so

Anonymous said...

18 moves here....posting for luck

Anonymous said...

I posted above for luck and immediately passed on the next try!! no boosters.

Anonymous said...

No comments in three and a half months. Interesting.
I had 18 moves to start (play on PC using the CandyCrush Icon on the startup menu).
Based on so many comments, I started with a CB, Stripe/Wrap, & a Fish and was fortunate to pass on my first attempt, but barely.

Need help! Can’t seem to win.

merlion said...

Android. No boosters. Created a CB next to stripe destroyed most. Then lucky board with stripe/wrap to finish on last move.

Sparkyjo said...

Right Merlion I am going to try your tip again. I think you got a lucky board though.

Unknown said...

I completely agree with Jan, but must add: No entendí nada de los que escribió pero voy a escribir algo aquí para aparentar que entendí algo. That's why I agree with Jan.

Jennifer said...

I am so stuck on this game and so frustrated ?!?!?! Please can you help me X X

snow said...

I started with no boosters but used 2 hammers to get the last 2 jelly's. Play on the bottom right and that did make cascades

Robin said...

So far played 3 play thrus with no luck used choc. Bomb wrap and fish no luck, waiting for the board to load up again, I watched videos, read posts, looks like if you could get 2 color bombs as someone did, that would be great,
Good luck everyone

Unknown said...

After playing umpteen times I have finally passed if you play mostly in the bottom tight hand then you stand a chance really hard could do with 1or2 more moves

Anonymous said...

These levels get harder over time when people pass them easily. At this stage there are no ways of collecting candy drops and no way of resetting at the start. It makes a lot of levels practically impossible to pass which is becoming really tiresome now. Need a lucky board please king.
