Candy Crush Saga Level 4008 Tips and video

Hints and tips showing how to pass level 4008 Candy Crush Saga without boosters by Cookie
Level 4008 is a multi task level and has been made almost impossible without boosters at the time of writing as there are 9 less moves than originally published, so you are either going to need huge amounts of luck, or boosters, to have any chance of clearing the level. You need to collect waffles and licorice as well as clearing the jelly to complete the level.
You need to look for colourbomb combos from the start, although they are not easy to make at the start of the game, and without switching with a stripe or another colourbomb they won't do you much good. Stripe/wrap combos are also useful and these will uncover and collect the keys.
The sooner you can collect the keys the more moves you will have left to clear the bottom half of the board and get clearing the orders.
Try to avoid making matches of three whenever possible and look carefully for chances to make special candies and combos with every move.
The blockers at the top and bottom of the board stop the candies from dropping into the bottom right section and there is jelly under them, so they need to be cleared whener you get the chance.
Once you get candies in the bottom part of the board look for moves there but it is more important that you make combos wherever you make them, so don't forget to look at the whole board before every move.

There are no videos at the moment with only 24 moves so I will post the one by Johnny Crush just to give you an idea of how the level works. I will post a new video when one is 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.

This is a very difficult level!! Of course not enough moves!! Impossible without boosters!! Even with full set of boosters from build a bot I don't even come close!! This will take more than a lucky board!! So tired of playing old levels for free boosters!! This game has become so tedious that it is not fun anymore!!

cvp said...

I think maybe a lot haven't reached this level. I think it's very difficult!

Anonymous said...

Agreed!!

Unknown said...

I think more than people finding it difficult to reach here they must have quit before reaching here... Just pathetic levels and it changes within a day or 2 of it getting released... Have the developers lost it or are running out of ideas..

Have you noticed that most of the recent levels require boosters? I like to play and I don’t mind spending some money but I think King is getting a little greedy.

Luís Bernardo said...

Really difficult. I did it after ten tries beggining with two colour bombs together. After that a lot of bombs with wraps and stripes are needeed.

Only 24 moves. Posting for luck

Maor Avni said...

I think better start with a cb and wrapped combo, but only with a wrapped in the same color that matches the keys on both clusters. This way you will bomb all keys and the waffles get unlocked. Still horrendous...

The developer of this level is an utmost asshole

Definitely something else wrong with this level - keeps coming up "not enough order targets left" in middle of game ! What is going on ?

POSTING FOR LUCK IN ADVANCE, AND YES, I'M YELLING. I NEED SOMEONE TO HEAR ME.

SweetE said...

Head full space bots an added fish booster. Started with color bomb wrap combination, wait till you see that some of the fish under the jelly are the same color as the wrap.

JaneM said...

I need luck and boosters.

I finally burst through a logjam that cause me to spend several days on a level. I want to say it was 3993, but I'm not sure. I think this level is fun, but I expected to pass it long before now and so I am here to get the goods on this level. This website has never let me down.

Anonymous said...

Seriously - is this even possible with full boosters?
I tried for fun without any boosters and it was a challenge to even defrost and get all the keys!
Posting for luck - but I think I'm posting to get out of the madness!

Emsa8 said...

I agree - without boosters not possible I think. And even with full bot/socks/dash and start with double CB it's doable, but you still need concentration on combos

Anonymous said...

Just focused on that area in the lower right hand corner. I thought of it like an iceberg and chose every move to take a bite out of it.

My new approach, in response to King's new approach is to become as determined NOT to spend boosters passing their levels as they are determined to gouge us all for boosters.

I have had to change my mindset toward this game. Once I have settled on an approach, after coming here (sooner rather than later these days) and possibly checking out one or 2 other vids, I basically treat it as meditation.

This means I have had to turn loose of the ego-boost that comes with being current with the game, i.e., having passed all available episodes, but I will get over it.

Came here, went back, passed immediately! I read the comment from Anonymous, had a timed CB bonus, added a stripe/wrapped. Board opened with CB next to wrap which was of right colour as first two keys. Then I had the lower right hand corner in my sights and concentrated! Luckily had a space ship from when I'd won my CB race earlier in the week (doing that twice a week now seems to be a new routine!). That did it. Phew! Thanks to this site, I'm still going and still haven't bought a thing!

Weary of working hard on every level.

Something g wrong with this level keeps going pops not enough order targets left, was close to winning then it quit the level on me, has happened 3 times now and wasted all my candies

Lynne said...

Switching The color bomb with another color bomb didn’t work for me. What worked for me was to start as Maor Avni suggested with a color bomb wrap when some of the keys are the same color as the wrap. Each move I then checked to see if I could make wraps stripes or color bombs that I could then ( as anonymous 12/16 said ) use to focus on chipping away at the bottom right side of the board. I ended up also using a couple hammers when I had 2 moves left and couldn’t have passed without! Thanks everyone for the great suggestions.

I thought I was getting close, but then the message popped up to tell me I did not have any order targets left (which were waffles).

Anonymous said...

I also got the "not enough targets left" BS

Posting for luck and for King to stop crappy levels.

I keep getting the "Not enough older targets left" error and it ends the game. took all the boosters I had invested in and used on this level! If it can't be done without boosters, and an error takes them and ends your game, what's the point of this? Anyone?

I struggled with this level over the weekend, read the tips from Cookie and here in the comments today, and passed on my 1st attempt after reading. Loading up on the streak boosters (bot, stocking, letters, etc.) by completing an easy level 7 times (my level of choice is 3711), adding a fish booster, and focusing on CB + wrap of a key color, then focusing on the bottom right jelly seems to be the magic combination. The CB+ wrap, then other specials clean up most of the requirements, and the fish clean up what's left. Combining a fish with a wrap can also be incredibly effective on this level. Thank you, Cookie, for the blog, and all the posters for the helpful tips. Happy Crushing and best of luck to anyone who is stuck on this level when reading these tips, hopefully my post helps someone become un-frustrated and complete the level.

Too tough for my pea brain. Well I made it to this level, with some luck maybe I can move on ahead.

Having made it this far without spending any money or heading back to easy levels to build boosters I can report that all levels can be done without boosters...except this one! I quit!

Flippenheck said...

Oh crikey help please

Patti3570 said...

Great advice—thanks!!! On my second try using this strategy, I was left with one jelly at end. No luck on extra moves spin. So paid $3.99 for a package & got the last jelly. ��

Patti3570 said...

*the strategy is: start with CB + wrapped, but wrapped must be of the same color as a majority of keys. That way you get all keys + waffles in one go. GL!

Thank you King for restoring the 60 gold blocks for 2.99. Now how about helping with this level? I'd even buy gold bars if I thought it would help. Can't even get with in range to buy my way to winning. I seriously am thinking of quitting when my stash of gold hrs is depleted.

Not nearly enough moves to complete the order. A lucky board is all you can ask for in my opinion.

Boring a** level
Takes an hour just to get one key & if you miraculously make it to the bottom half of the board your moves have already run out, Fighting liquorice and waffles is NOT fun King it’s BORING. Change the record fgs!!

Tammy Caison said...

I said I would quit at 4000...why am I torturing myself? Lol. Not even close

Player said...

OMG...I tried almost a hundred times..but I can't pass this level. Yet an impssible one...it starts to get annoying...that almost every level is impossible to pass unless king gives you a pass.....
