Candy Crush Saga Level 3038 Tips and video

Hints and tips showing how to pass level 3038 Candy Crush Saga without boosters by Cookie
You have to grow all the popcorns to complete level 3038 Candy Crush Saga.
First open up the board a little to give you space to work, then look for stripes and especially wraps to begin growing the popcorns. Stripes will clear some of the licorice surrounding the bottom two popcorns and once you get candies next to them you can use combos to grow them.
By far the best combo is a colourbomb/wrap combo, this will grow the top popcorns but you'll need candies of the right colour next to the bottom ones for the combo to do any good.
Colourbomb/stripe combos are also good, but not as reliable as wraps.
A double colourbomb combo will clear the licorice and hit all the popcorns so is always useful if you can make one.
Although the video below starts with 25 moves it is completed in 19 moves so if you have less than 25 moves you should still be able to do it.

If the level you play is different from the one here it is because the developers have changed it since I played and I have no control over this. Please let me know in the comments and I will try to change it.

Take Cookie's advice - a pair of CB'S opens up the board. Indy

I also used the two cbs, but also used a check mark. This can help create a popcorn where it it easier to reach, but it could backfire if you got too many check marks and it starts filling up the available space. In my case it worked out.

Double CB and a couple hammers did the job.
Curious what levels people go back to play to get the dash, spaceship, stocking?

I go back to level 606 to get the magic dash boosters

Check mark booster was the key to this level for me. I don't have the magic helmet so two chocolates swapped with each other wasn't an option. I didn't need them though since I didn't have to try to get the bottom popcorns surrounded by licorice with the check mark.

I used to go to level 1 for helmet, until I read that if you've lost a level don't hit retry or x, just close the screen and exit the app. When you re-enter, the life will have been lost, but helmet boosters are saved. Many thanks to folks who've posted that, as replaying level was so tedious.

I also use 606 - you can grow the frog in 2 moves (skip the ‘help’), move him down one and then back up then put him in the middle of the jelly. Voila - you are on your way to getting a full helmet/stocking etc.

606

Started with a full space dash and switched a CB with a wrap which set off another wrap and stripes which opened up a couple of popcorns. In the end I didn't want to lose my full space dash so used hammers for the last elusive popcorn in the bottom right. Call me a cheat if you like but my only goal is to reach the end of the episodes so I can be forced to take a break from my CC addiction!!

Heb een compleet ander bord, met maar 16 zetten en een voller veld.. niet te doen dus 😕

MWee said...

Why only 16 moves on my game, not 25 moves? Looks like I can never pass
this level.

Passed first try, thanks to tips. Had first level space dash, added a sprinkle, and combined the two sprinkles. Got some wraps by a couple of popcorns, then a couple of sprinkle/stripe combos finished it off. Thank you, Cookie and previous posters!

Very difficult level, not even close....

Well, I played this level 200 times, and not one close....
I cannot collect the last 2 popcorns in the licorice.
Maybe it is time to quit now, no fun anymore.

BarbC said...

Checkmark booster is the trick if you don’t have the helmet to get two colorbombs.

Laura said...

Thanks. I didn't know that.

MissyM said...

The 2 bottom popcorns are impossible to hit because of the licorice.

Much different to Cookie's board. 20 moves, no popcorn or licorice. Now have to uncover two colour bombs on the bottom and collect meringues etc. Yet another not enough moves levels. I really hate this epsiode. Every board seems to be built on too few moves as a way to make it difficult but is really just a way to get us to pay for more moves. So I could use a lucky board here.

Annie said...

Got 2 colour bombs side by side and it was pretty easy after that.
