Candy Crush Saga Level 3285 Tips and video

Hints and tips showing how to pass level 3285 Candy Crush Saga without boosters by Cookie
You have to collect chocolate, licorice and the 4 popcorns to complete level 3285 Candy Crush Saga.
Don't worry too much about collecting the keys, they will be collected as you play. The main things to concentrate on are, first the popcorns as they are hard to grow and also unlocking the chocolate down the left side of the board. Unlocking the chocolate on the left, especially near the top, will release the licorice from that side so you can begin collecting it.
You need to start getting the licorice dropping as quickly as possible or you will run out of moves and not get enough.
Once you start to get the popcorns out of the way more licorice will drop from the middle too and this will help you get the orders.
Remember that if you clear licorice with your move no more will drop the next move, so make sure you have plenty on the board before you start clearing it. Use combos to clear the licorice as much as possible, as long as you don't clear any when you switch the combo it won't stop more from dropping so you can collect more.
Collecting the chocolate won't be a problem, keeping it under control is more of a problem than collecting 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.

space dash, combined CB & stripe which got most of the keys and hit the popcorns. After that I looked for any stripes, wraps, of stripe/wrap combos to finish the chocolate and pop the popcorns. Got lucky and had one of the CBs from a popcorn end up near a stripe which finished the chocolate and popped the other popcorns. That left making moves under the licorice dispenser to get the remaining licorice.

Finding it hard to get enough licorice. Posting for luck!

Licorice is evading me!, Posting for luck this time! Hoping after reading your advice I will do better. Played tons of times, but can’t get the darn licorice!

LynnKaiser07 said...

I can’t believe that this level isn’t listed as “HARD” ! I broke down and purchased boosters to pass this one! I think it’s only my 3rd time to spend money on this game in all the levels I’ve played. Swore I’d never do it again....ugh

Anonymous said...

I'd like to propose a new rule: if you used Space Dash or Lovely Lettuce or whatever it is (I don't have them, so I have to work without them), and you started with two CBs, don't post. You can beat most levels with that. Instead, unless you have something unique to contribute, don't post. You're just bragging, and no one cares.

Anonymous said...

I’d also like to propose a new rule. I come here for tips. And to share tips. I don’t want to wade through pages of “posting for luck.” What a bore. It’s NOT going to bring you luck. That’s just stupid. If you don’t want to share a tip then stay off. Thank you.

Foxx this level is fxxxxxx irritating!!! Stuck for days!!!

Unknown said...

What kind of level is this? 20 steps and yet having so many things to clear!!! Sick of this level. Damn hundred times and not getting any closer at all. Foxx!!!

Anonymous said...

This level and the recent ones are very hard to pass without using a bunch of boosters. Seems that King keeps reducing the number of moves and/or adding blockers for the later players. The game is becoming more frustrating than fun and skills!
It could be the reason why the later players are wishing for the lucky board

Anonymous said...

20 moves to get all that??? Ugh seriously!!! This one is no fun, hoping for a lucky board soon!!!

Anonymous said...

Mine is 20 moves,video are with 25 moves,every game is different,crazy...

Impossible to get enough licorice

Anonymous said...

Not only are there reduced moves--only 20, But they have added a color--now 5 which makes the possibility of matching twice as hard as 4 shown in the video.

CathG said...

I kept restarting til I had a CB and wrapped next to each other then managed it first time.

Unknown said...

I am quitting. Really frustrated to keep playing the same boring level. Damn it.

Been at this one for days, never get even close, not with only 20 moves. I think this is the end of the road for me after several years of playing and PAYING. Good luck everyone as you continue on, it's been fun...

liloldlady said...

Lately all the level come without enough moves. King's new strategy!
We need a lucky board and a lot of boosters to make it.
Very frustrating!

Anonymous said...

Agreed. And enough licorice doesn’t drop either.

Anonymous said...

This level, much like all other levels released recently, suck!

Thanks, King!

Impossible to get enough licorice in so few moves. Impossible!!!!

Sultanate said...

I have got 3 hours bonus and Rani CB for 1 hour. Have used stripe wrap combo 2 with CB. Haven't even been able to grow the popcorn's. King please give more moves. Its impossible and getting frustrating now. Or else everyone should get space dash and helmet. I have never got once. Posting for luck

Anonymous said...

It seems impossible to get everything done in 20 moves. I also had free CB's for hours and even used a lot of games to get more boosters. I will keep going but wonder if King will change the amount of sets to get this level done. It is kind of frustrating but I know "its just a game." Don't give up!!

Anonymous said...

Now it's 4 colors but only 16 moves...still trying..

Wendy said...

Now reduced to 16 moves please sort this now as 20 seems impossible

Liz said...

As usual, not enough liquorice. It feels like a long time since I was able to get through a level without space dash - which spoils a lot of the fun. Why not either provide all players with these boosters or stop these ridiculous levels?
I have no tips, sorry. I've managed, with wrapped candies, to collect the popcorn and chocolate but there is always about 10 liquorice to collect at the end

not enough licorice

Booboo said...

I’ve tried all of the above suggestions and can’t even come close. I’m bored to tears with trying.

Anonymous said...

At least give me some decent moves! My games are so slow, one move at a time until chocolate takes over or shuffle, shuffle, shuffle, Ridiculous. And I'm also sick of people posting 2 CBs together. We already know that! We want to know how to beat the game without boosters! But unfortunately that means waiting for the lucky board in most cases now. I wish I wasn't so addicted to this game so I could quit, or find another game that's more fun.

Unknown said...

Impossible game and not fair I have only 16 moves in my iPhone X that makes it impossible impossible please fix the game and help

Unknown said...

16 moves only not fair as in the above Vidio it should be 25 I’m tired of repeating this game with no chances to even reach half the orders please help it is impossible impossible impossible

Unknown said...

King are you their to help us with this impossible level 16 moves and very difficult to reach the impossible orders I’m sick of it

Booboo said...

It’s a con! I had one last shot at it and with 10 moves left I needed only 9 licorice. I played away from the current 5 licorice on the board to make sure 4 more dropped. Guess what...no more dropped in all my 10 remaining moves, even without disturbing the current licorice. I also used a hand twice to move candies so as not to disturb the board.
Bottom line is King is not giving us enough licorice so why are we even bothering to play this.
King....if you are reading this at least make the game fair and not by conning people into paying you money just so you can give them a lucky board. That’s not game!

Anonymous said...

Torture!! No licorice falls from either side!! 😩😩😩

Anonymous said...

How many weeks do I have to play this level????

Anonymous said...

I had exactly the same happen. Never got any more licorice

Anonymous said...

Same for me, started with all boosters and had 10 moves left to collect the licorice but nothing dropped. A deliberate glitch in my eyes. Now I'm biding my time collecting sugar candies / boosters in older levels and stocking up nicely. Oh, funny how all those older levels are so easy now...ones I struggled with I now pass without even trying! If you don't worry about trying to keep current this "game" is a piece of cake...

Divinyl said...

Right, that's me. I quit. At least until King sort their s**t out. I'm stick of these stupid, impossible levels, where the goalposts are changed after release, and later changed again because they have been made literally impossible. There's no fun in it. I'd rather wait weeks for new levels to be released than the crap we've had recently. So, bye bye Candy Crush, at least until you can get your act together. Best of luck to the rest of you!

Yesterday I had 20 moves for this game and it was impossible with 20, Now I have 16 and the game is so slow it's one move at a time. I'm sick of this garbage too. They are just driving people away. That's no way to run a business. But they don't care, they're already making millions from the earlier players. I wonder if I bought the gold bars in my piggy bank would they give me the lucky board for the next several games so my piggy bank would fill up again, luring me to buy more gold bars. That would be a good experiment.

Unknown said...

It impossible it takes one week playing with no result I gave up 16 moves didn’t work please help the vidio shows 25 moves not fair

Anonymous said...

This level is impossible, just can't get enough licorice to drop. 20 moves was bad and now only 16. Does anyone have any useful tips or advice for the 16 move game? Please share

Unknown said...

the licorice are very difficult to throw under it places the 16 moves finish so fast and the licorice drops very little only four or 3 I’m tired of this level

Anonymous said...

I started using a CB and stripe/wrap combo to start and reset until CB is matched with wrap opening up the board. This helped a lot to collect chocolate and some licorice and some popcorn, but in the end I never had enough licorice drop to complete the game. This game is rigged to make you buy more moves which I will not. So long, candy crush, I quit.

Anonymous said...

As many of you have posted, levels such as 3275 and this one is so frustrating its not fun anymore and its time to say GOODBYE. To Cookie, thank-you for the great tips which has been very helpful over the years. To King, shame on you and you should consider changing the name of the game to Candy Frustration Saga so that new players will know what to expect up-front.

Unknown said...

To anonymous on April 26 at 9:10 - no buying the gold bars in your piggy bank won't help you move along any faster. LOL The only money I spend in the game now is to buy the piggy bank when it fills up and I've gone weeks without getting it full again because I get stuck on these ridiculously hard levels. I thought I would save you the $2.99 for the experiment :)

16 moves!!!!

O dear, I'm stuck for days! No matter how quickly I clear the board, the 20 licorice isn't coming down to get it crushed. Terrible.
Please, CC, fix it!

On my Samsung there are 26 moves and it's not hard to complete after 8 or 9 tries. Have no idea why so many of you are complaining and saying it is frustrating and posting for luck.

Never had a helmet said...

No boosters used, it only took a couple of tries.
I just collected keys and tried to make combos.

U shouldn't tell people not to post something because it dosen't pertain to you... is this your page? Please stop hating on space dash. People play this game for different reasons and have different strategies. Let it go man

Well said, Tara!

Laura said...

It's not bragging. It's letting other players with SD know what worked for them. I'm sorry you don't have SD. It's not fair but that doesn't mean that those of us with it shouldn't use it and post our results without harrassment!

Carole said...

Waiting for lucky moves. Very very hard

MicT said...

Not enough liquorish dropping for me! Had all the other orders with 12 moves left, but was left needing 2 liquorish on a board with none on it at the end. Pretty frustrating.

MicT said...

Hmmm... funny enough, eventually enough liquorice fall for you to get through! I had so many boards when there wasn’t enough. It’s just waiting for. The ‘lucky’ board.

Impossible level. Not enough moves or liquorice. Have tried everything nothing hwlpa.😞😞😞
