Hints and tips showing how to pass level 3230 Candy Crush Saga without boosters by Cookie
I don't think this level is remotely passable without boosters so there's no point me trying to give tips. However I did manage to pass it using the free colourbomb from the space dash and a colourbomb booster.
If you have the space dash use a colourbomb booster and keep backing out of the game using the button bottom left WITHOUT MAKING A MOVE until you get the two colourbombs together.
Once you have switched the two colourbombs you are halfway to having enough fish and blockers, the big problem will be the licorice.
Keep making combos and work as close to the bottom of the board as you can to create cascades. The combos will give you the most fish and also help clear the blockers.
To get enough licorice you are going to have to think carefully about your moves. If you clear licorice none will drop the next move and you really need it to drop.
To get the licorice you need to clear as much as possible to more or less clear the board, then make moves away from any licorice until you have plenty on the board, then clear it again.
If the licorice is cleared by the blast from a combo it will continue to drop, but if switching the combo clears some directly it won't drop, so this is where you have to play carefully.

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.

After trying all starting options I eventually got through by starting with cb/wrap, and then stripe wrap combos. Ended up 3 licorice short and spun for 5 extra moves. Relieved as it wasn’t looking good. Boris
I used Cookie's strategy plus 5 extra moves. The licorice were really tough to collect. Glad to get through this one!
Thank you, Cookie. It has to be tough keeping up with the game changes. That is basically what I did. I think I started with a double CB. By the time I got to this level two days ago, I just wanted to finish the misery, so I used all extra boosters with the space dash and the extra CB. I did have to use extra moves to get the last of the d—-n licorice! This episode started out being fun, but there were a couple nasty surprise levels thrown in. Relaxing until Wednesday!
I need a lucky board plus on this one.
Kind of sad that it's gotten to the point where they're making levels where someone like Cookie says it's impossible to beat without boosters like space dash/double color bomb. And I believe that's correct because I played the level a bunch of times without boosters and didn't even get halfway there...have now played it a few times with space dash and double CB but still no dice. Can't get enough licorice on the board. So, I'll keep scrolling back and playing levels 1 through 3 again and again to get the space dash, wrap/stripe combo and extra 3 moves until I finally beat this horrible level.
I have tried this one a whole bunch of times and just cannot get it even with extra boosters.
Waiting for that lucky board.
Finished and ready to the next episode!
Just found this last level of the blog. It was a challenging episode. I wasn't able to start this episode until late Wednesday afternoon and finished late evening. This last level I used a chocolate sprinkle/wrap, two stripe/wrap combos, check booster and finished 1st try with 10 moves left. I obviously had a lucky board also. Hope everyone made it through without too much trouble. To anonymous at 17:19. You don't have to lose Space Dash each time you try a level if you're playing on mobile. I play on Android and the way I'm able to keep it is I turn off my tablet and turn it back on and the same on my Note 4 phone. Til next Wednesday.

I have been on this level for 3 days!! I have used up all my boosters!! I used all my gold bricks for extra moves!! I have used color bomb combo with everything!! I collect extra boosters with magic dash!! I have tried all the suggested tips from cookie!! I can NOT get enough licorice to fall!! I work the bottom, with 11-12 moves left & NO licorice drops!!! So tedious!! So bored! Ready to be done!!!
After too many frustrating attempts, including what looked like good starts with 2 CBs together, I used Boris’ tip of starting with CB/wrap — seemed like I had an inordinate number of candies same color as wrap — I finished it off but used FIVE switches and one hammer. Good riddance!! Thanks, Cookie for catching up!! Elektra
Who cares.....just kidding..actually there were a few of us that were concerned as we did not see anything from you during this episode but then I realized or at least hoped that it was from the trouble that many of us had in actually locating the blog...it was probably more difficult finding this blog than beating this episode...anyway glad to see that you are ok
Lol! Thanks Carlton for your concern. I did have trouble finding the blog but I was so late starting the episode that I figured there would be lots of tips already posted. Seems like this episode had even more licorice than usual.
Sharon
Seems like the licorice isn't cooperating. Guess I need to post for luck.
Maybe I'm missing something but once you lose a level, the space dash boosters are gone. That's why I scroll all the way back down and play levels 1,2, and 3 again to get the space dash boosters back. Still struggling with this level :(
To anonymous at 11:59: I mentioned in my post March 30 at 20:58 on this page how I keep Space Dash when I have to replay a level. That's the only way I can get it to work on my Android devices is by turning them off and on again.
Sharon
I just got back from vacation and now I am able to catch up. At one time I was 3 episodes behind. The ship's Internet was so slow that sometimes Candy Crush would not even open.
Till next Wednesday.
Rick, we’re glad to see you back! Sharon, we were worried about you, our Wednesday group is growing. Welcome Elektra, Boris and Roger75.
play level 606 to replenish you space dash instead of going all the way to 1 2 and 3 can do it in 3 moves.
The so called "Wednesday club" is growing since King invented the space dash and it will continue to grow if King will not bring back the challenge.
My recommendatio to King:
1. Cancel the space dash and all its brother and sisters.
2. Cancel the stupid golden crown for first try.
3. Bring back some timed levels.
King, if you need some more ideas, just let me know.
And I suggest that you post your name if you are so full of ideas or are you
just FULL OF IT ??
This level is an absolute mare! Been at it for 5 days and nowhere near! Why is C C making them so difficult? Will have to wait for a lucky board or a change by C C. Happy Easter all, enjoy the chocolate xx
Thanks, Sharon. Used your advice and turned off my iPad mini and when I restarted, still had the space dash. Finally made it past this level by resetting until I had a CB and wrap together, the wrap was same color as a lot of candies already on the board. Still ended up having to use 2 hand switch boosters but who cares, done like a dinner! Shame on King for making levels that are 100% impossible to pass without boosters.
You don't need to switch your devices off and on to retain space dash. Just quit the candy crush application once you know you can't compete the level. Lee
Could someone explain the exact steps to quit candy crush application on iPad so that you don't lose space dash. I just cannot figure out how to do that while still in the game?
To quit on iPad, tap the home button (the round button at the bottom of,the screen) twice while you are still in the game. When all your apps come up on the screen, swipe up on the Candy Crush app and it will disappear, then you can start it up again with the space dash still there. I have to admit, I usually shut off and start again though. I’m afraid it won’t work even though I know it does.
Lee...That is also the only way it works on my device is to turn it off and on.
Aron what device are you using? Lee
I've been trying this level for days with no success, not even come close, and this morning opened the app to find that once again my space dash has randomly disappeared even though yesterday I closed the app as usual. I am so sick of this happening and can't face going back to earlier levels to get it back. Time to quit I think
Liz the space dash only lasts a few days. Usually it is reset on Monday and Friday mornings - Lee
Ah I see, thank you! How annoying!
Posting for luck. King, why don't you make all the boosters i.e. space dash available to all players? This really isn't fair! Marj
Just a small thing but it is less time consuming to do level 1 three times rather than 1-3 to get your boosters back.
I have been on this level since last wed. I’m out of boosters and lives are going fast. So I guess I’m just posting for luck. Lol. Dianne
3230 was the worst one I've seen in a long time . . . finally passed it. Anxious to see what Wednesday will bring this week. Am really missing the extra sugar drops we used to get . . . . going to make it harder with less boosters.
Does anyone have a trick to get back to level 1? Or do I just have to swipe? And swipe and swipe....?
To Liz @2:06
You get "Space Dash" on Monday mornings that lasts until late Thursday.
Friday mornings you get "Magic Dash" that lasts until late Sunday.
Luck plz, nothing else will work
It’s just so unfair that we have to use up all our hard earned boosters for a lot of these games just so unfair. 😩 posting for a lot of much needed help on this one pleeaase! 🙏🙏🙏
This is probably the most boring level ever. all you do is sit and wait for it to refresh and play over and over and over because you can just not win with no boosters. so what the heck are you supposed to do? 🙄
Deb........2 April at 9:28, sugar drops are still there. Any level,with a c in a circle will get you sugar drops when you play it. The best ones to earn boosters are way back though. I usually go back to 1476 and lower numbers.
I finally made it.
Correction, CC allowed me to get it.
It's not about playing well. It's about CC giving you lucky board.
And the differences they create between different players/devices is unfair.
I am not gonna wait untill the next 15, i am gonna delete CC
Thank you!
Quite new to this blogging thing but I play on I pad and find with the space booster you can swop easily between current level and level one
You will need to swipe away for the first game then when you lose exit instead of retrying and it will take you back to level one which I do five times in a row then press space dash to resume current level works with morts helmet too......hope you understand what I mean
Bye Felicia !!!
Gus
I wouldn't hold my breath
Gus
When you know you are about to lose the game, turn your device off. When you turn it back on again you have not lost your magic helmet boosters I won this game with the color bomb and wrap, then played bottom of board letting the licorice appear
Posting for luck
Posting for luck please! 🤦♀️
So Sick of this level!
Have been playing for almost a week without coming even remotely close to passing. All my many boosters have been depleted. This may be the level that finally makes me call it quits.
Finally got through this today. For once it was the fish I was short of. I paid for extra moves (don't judge me) and have deleted the app from my phone so I can only play it on the ipad. Good luck everyone!
Ps and my tip, for what it's worth, is not to start by blasting it with combos as that seems to make it harder to get the liquorice.
Cannot get anywhere near even with boosters.
Impossible! Time to quit C C?
Re sugar drops: before I caught up with you guys, I found 2 posts on same level (I didn’t note the level) from November 2017 with recommendations for maximizing sugar drops.
First one from Anonymous 13 November 2017 @ 7:22: 1488, 1476 (also recommended by Carol the elder above), 1168, 982, 945, 932, 906, 866, 666, 654, and sometimes 716, 540, 756.
Another post same level here’s Anna’s list (November 16 @ 17:30): 1476, 1256, 1168, 1137, 906, 666, sometimes 122.
I’ve found I can spin through all 5 levels of sugar drops using my own combo from these recommended posts: 1476, 1168, 1137, 906; depending how many more I need (sometimes space dash causes win too fast so I don’t get max number of drops) so that I start with 23 of 24 next time, I’ll use some combo of 666, 654, 281, 276 and 112.
I’m still slightly bummed I can’t play star chaser anymore to get free hours. Same with easy 10x stripes for Dexter game. But ultimately I’d rather be up here at the front with you all!! Elektra
Elektra, your list is the one I use most often. 1073 is good too. 1256 is good for earning drops, but often I’m trying to earn drops along with going for the space dash and 1256 is a hard level. Once I earn the space dash, I stop playing until the new episode starts.
Ridiculous level with boosters impossible without guess I’ll be playing endless games on this until get my lucky board
Wow! 3230 was almost impossible since I don’t have Space Dash. I loaded all of the boosters and used the switch I had and a hammer to make a chocolate sprinkle and combine with mine. I ended having to buy extra moves twice and I have rarely bought until recently with the difficulty of the episodes without SD. But I made it! Though I don’t have a life. Hmm... Diane from San Diego
Congrats Diane from San Diego! Good to see you. I didn't realize you didn't have Space Dash. So not fair and you never complain. What do you play on? Just don't understand why some don't have it especially at this stage of the game. Good luck tomorrow.
Sharon
Posting for luck..
This is a rediculous level. I have drained all posters and have used many on many attempts. It has wasted all boosters and it’s set up to drain you’re reserves. Will give a few more attempts and I believe it is stupid enough to quit Candy Crush. What a waste....
Oh MY GOSH COOKIE! If I didn't read your very important comment about the licorice spawning, I would never have gotten through this. I didn't realize it's like chocolate and they won't generate a lot of licorice unless there is a licorice square present. That is what did the trick for me. I have been trying this one for quite some time but hadn't seen your comment until this morning. THank you thank you thank you
Quite possibly the most unenjoyable, horrible level to date. No fun in this one, just tedious. Why King, whyyyyy? 😩
Thanks very much for the tip to keep helmets... Worked a dream! Saves going back to 606, which incidentally, you can do it two moves (line up the pinks below the frog and a cascade of orange drops). Liking this episode so much more than last week's! Nanny Annie
I’ve used booster after booster and still can’t pass not wasting anymore
Very tough. I did it with full Space Dash plus all boosters and hit cb/wrap combo twice, although it cost me two switches. Didn't need extra moves, though��. You really have to pay attention to making the licorice drop. A vertical stripe will give you a full column but only if you don't eliminate a licorice. The rules about dropping licorice seem to be different on different levels.
Why now a game can make u feel like a complete lose game after game. Why am I not getting a lucky board? I’ve come this far!
Posting for luck... with every booster I have, not even come close.
Please help.
How am I to play this game at this stage without the helmet nor space ship
That tip about saving space dash by turning off the phone doesn’t work for me. I’m using an iPhone 6s.
That for sure doesn’t work on iPhone.
Swipe swipe swipe. But to get back to the top, close the app and reopen.
I am trying for 8 days.. no sens....
Is it me or are these levels getting boring? Same crap, have to use boosters to pass them. What happened in design land?
Impossible without boosters..need lots of luck
Licorice requirement has just been removed (at least on iPhone), AND others have been reduced. Now 40 fish and 72 blockers (vs 50 & 100 respectively before) in 38 moves (same)
Yes, with this change is a very easy level now.
Wow. No more licorice. Piece of cake. Thank god that’s done!
First try,using the 2ball combo, the rest was easy.
I wasn't required to get licorice so I won on my first try. Started with a color bomb/wrap combo. Hope others get the updated board
Posting for luck
mmm.. I have 38 moves,40 fish and 72 blocker; licorice are not reqrd.
Sage here: got to post for luck again, just can’t beat level. Nothing is working. Hope posting for luck will. Thanks in advance.
Yes same here. Completed in 4 tries. With Cb and fishes. And had to use a hammer to get 2 CBs together.
Much easier now with no liquorice, passes on first attempt with plenty of moves to spare.
I have never had anything either, don't know why?
1st try, no boosters! Yeah, this was easier than the previous episode.
Guess I lucked out as they have changed it so you don't need the licorice now. Did it with no boosters - was able to swap a colorbomb and wrap on my last move to get enough fish.
-K
Not liking the look of this one
Is this possible...help please
Ta
I earned a free colour bomb for an hour so I kept on resetting it until it came close to a set up where I could make another colour bomb beside it . After that it was fairly easy to make combinations to set the fish off. You have to be really careful not to make any random moves. A lot of luck involved, yes, but still some strategy.
Ridiculous level I need a lucky board.
No licorice just d blockers. Easy
In 1
Hard one. Waiting for lucky moves
Another scam of a level with sprinkles, wraps and stripes going off on their own to stop combos being made, then a flurry of cascades and lots of boosters with 5-8 moves left to give you hope but because you have spent 20 bullshit moves you still have 90% of fish and blockers to clear with your last remaining moves!! One comment since 2018 tells you people are fed up with corporate scum bullshit!
