Candy Crush Saga Level 3968 Tips and video

Hints and tips showing how to pass level 3968 Candy Crush Saga without boosters by Cookie
Level 3968 is an ingredients level, you have to collect three cherries to complete the level and you only have 23 moves to do it.
The first job is to clear the cake as quickly as possible and if you have a coconut wheel to spare I would suggest you use it.
Once the cake is clear the first ingredient will drop and the remaining cherries will drop as you play so you you don't have to wait until the first one is out of the exit to get the rest.
Don't worry about the route to get the ingredients to the exits, they will find their way as you play. All you need to do is to clear the waffles out of the way and the cherries will be collected. If you can keep making moves on one side of the board the whole time all the cherries will drop out of that side and this will make things a bit easier.
If you can maanage to make a colourbomb/wrap combo or a colourbomb/stripe combo you will have a better chance of clearing the most waffles, but it isn't easy to make combos as the board can be very restricted due to the number of waffles.

The video below starts with 27 moves but is completed in 22 although the waffles are now much thicker so much harder to clear than in the video, but at the moment there are no new videos available.

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.

If possible start with CB combo, good news it gets the cake, bad news it drops a lot of waffles, but got it on the first go

Three times now this level has gone on forever, until I ended it! Lost all my boosters and life’s! Not happy!

Yet another dumb level that is different layout for me than any of the clearly easier examples on video. Why make these so impossible?

Yes the number of moves has changed as well as the waffles (they don't have licorice locks on them)

Entire different level, I wonder what was happening when the other high scores in my board are 16000 points, and my goal to complete this leves was 2550000 points. Level with just two colors and bombs, entirely different fron the one I see here

Same as Marcello above, maybe King recently changed it. I was fortunate to have the full Space Dash/Lucky Letters/Bot or whatever the bonus is now, plus a 2 hour CB bonus from finishing partner tasks. If you play this version of it slowly and carefully, doing CB with single color or other non-CB combos, you can generally keep the countdown bombs (6 moves) at bay. It's pretty much self playing and the candy cane fences are restricting as usual, but don't keep you from meeting the points requirement (hitting several bombs by matching a CB with a regular candy boosts your score the most). Just patiently whack away at one color or area of bombs and watch the cascades go and eliminate most of the bombs every shot. Good luck, fellow crushers!

whats the point of making a level that you might as well quite 5 moves before end because there's no hope in beating it??? this f''ked

Anonymous said...

What a pointless and dull level, you have almost no choice over the moves you can make because the board is so restricted so it is a case of playing this level over and over again until King finally decides to give you a lucky board. Please go back to designing fun levels....

Annu said...

Posting for luck please! Such a frustrating level

Annu said...

I give up. I’m tired of these levels that strategy doesn’t work. Have to depend on luck. Time to try something else.

Jean said...

Posting for luck. Good heavens...I just can't get this one done.

Player said...

Man what a boring level. And of course - in the style of king - impossible to pass. Wonder why there arent't that many comments. Where is everybody? Did they all quit because it is hardly doable these days and very frustrating instead of relaxing?

Player said...

So what's the average on this level king? I mean what's the average of all players to pass this level? Am i close yet to let me pass?

Player said...

BORING AND IMPOSSIBLE...FIX THIS LEVEL PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Crushing Daisy said...

Waffles suck way too many. Impossible. Posting for luck.

meliana said...

meliana said...

Im QUIT, sooooo stupid level. delete this game is absolutely

Unknown said...

Impossible!! Posting for luck

meliana said...

this level is impossible to pass, even with an hour coconut wheel, the third cherry doesnt drop and the thicker waffle and only 21 moves make it impossible to pass. cmon KIng this level must be get fixed. even with an hour coconut wheel still impossible

Unknown said...

To summarize:

Useless move, reshuffle, useless move, reshuffle, useless move, reshuffle, and on and on and on.

And the one or two times I've gotten lucky and blown up the cake in the middle while I still have 15 or 16 moves left, it doesn't help.

The third cherry doesn't drop until you've only got a few moves left, and then it has to go through the two rows on the right or left to get to an exit row.

THEN all three cherries end up stacked up in the middle of the board above 26 three-layer waffles blocking all the exits.

Just waiting for that time when striped, wrapped and color bombs just start dropping out of the top and the board explodes over and over again and the cherries all miraculously fall out the exits.

That's the only way to win this board, it has to win it for you. So I guess I'll just keep losing until that happens.

So boring. But it seems like every level is like this now. Why, oh why, do we keep playing instead of just deleting our game and starting over at level 1 and go back to playing levels that were fun? Sigh.

My strategy that nearly worked was clear as much waffle as you can then set off the cake causing 2 fruit to drop. Unfortunately not enough moves to get the 3rd out. Wasted a few coconut wheels as no space to move them properly. Only passed as got fed up and used a saucer + a hammer for last fruit. Horrible level.

Posting for luck again please

Shystar said...

Please please need luck tired of this horrible level

Shystar said...

Sucks

Unknown said...

Impossible to win this board... Boring.. Only having 20 moves and the waffles are falling down within the first move and block the exit for the cherries. The last cherry is falling down when you have 2 last moves... What do you think makes us fun with this level?? Nothing!!! So please change the board or send luck to everyone... Thx

Anonymous said...

Not fun at all and can't even come close to passing! I can't even tell you how many lives I've gone through because I have unlimited lives right now. Ugh!!!

Shari said...

Not enough moves, too many waffles. Another boring, senseless and luck only game!

Chillgirl said...

Not enough moves —only get boosters to help on the last couple moves, if at all. I’m not coming close,so I’m saying this level is impossible without the lucky board. I’ve used my coconut wheels, cb, and stripe-wrap, all with no luck. Just a waste of my boosters. Help !! I need that lucky board !!

Nellebel said...

Dit moet een makkelijk niveau zijn. Niet dus. Te weinig zetten. Frustrerend. AUB help.

JuleP said...

What a malicious idea to give the last cherry not before the last move? King, this is a brainless trap 😠

Narrabeam said...

Reduced to 20 moves and the 3rd cherry doesn’t drop until last minute. Another King con
