Candy Crush Saga Level 4862 Tips and video

Hints and tips showing how to pass level 4862 Candy Crush Saga without boosters by Cookie
Level 4862 Candy Crush Saga is classified as a hard level so you can expect to lose some lives before you manage to pass it. This is an ingredients level, you have to collect 20 ingredients to complete the level. The nuts begin in the bottom row and drop through the portals onto the main part of the board.
There are exits on most columns, but some are blocked by the popcorns and spawners. Don't rush to destroy the spawners and popcorns as the some of the nuts will slip diagonally into the exit columns if you make moves in the bottom part of the board. Once the spawners are unlocked, however, you need to clear them before they start to spawn blockers. Eventually the spawners and popcorns will be destroyed and then you will have to look very carefully at the moves you make. Try to make moves vertically in the exit columns whenever possible to bring down the nuts in the columns you want them in.
Once you have collected most of the nuts you may have to switch the last few into the exit columns. You just have to switch the nuts one column over as there are exits beside most of the columns but try to avoid letting the nuts drop into the outside columns as it is harder to switch them from there.
The candies will constantly rotate through the portals and this can be a very long game, but it is possible to pass without boosters.

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 on our FB group and I will try to change it.

Most boring yet in this episode, cascades go on and on, hope you have enough "hands" to help out!

Pascorp said...

Long time to post for luck... I can't get this one

HFP said...

Stupid level!

HFP said...

Nothing helps except hand switches. You’ll need 6 to 8 hand switches to complete this level.

Liz said...

I got stuck. An endless loop of moving pieces. I couldn't make another move. No end in sight. Had to force quit the level and lose my bot and life. Annoying.

Pascorp said...

If you don't have hand switches? What is the strategy?

McT said...

What??? Agree, you just can't do this one without hand switches....and I don't have any....now what?? Blog says to try and not get the nuts to the outside, so how do you control that? I have played this level many times now and I think I've only been able to make a switch twice...there is no strategy here....you make a move where you think things line up and it goes crazy, which defeats the purpose of trying to line things up....I am really confused here...need some help, for sure!!!!

McT said...

Believe it or not, I just won this level....there was no rhyme or reason to it, just luck....so, to everyone out there, there is hope...Good Luck!

Candymom said...

This level insults our intelligence. I’ve played it tediously, twice down to one more acorn needed. Other times have had to quit because of endless cycling. Makes me dizzy and feeling like a twit for continuing to try.

JOANN said...

THIS IS UNWINNABLE WITH THE SET UPS YOUR GIVING, MY PLAYING FIELDS ARE NOTHING LIKE YOUR VIDEO, PLEASE UPDATE AND LETS PLAY FAIR !! LOOKS LIKE OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM !!

anonymous said...

Tedious level, took almost 45 minutes of falling candies. was lucky to get some extra moves and could switch, but it was boring. the only good thing was 32 million points and 52 sugardrops.

Emsa8 said...

SAME... Endless loop. What a fail

Emsa8 said...

After reading this I decided to reluctantly use my switches I stocked up the last weeks. After spawners and popcorn was gone I could switch some more nuts but finally and unfortunately I needed 6 switches. This is a very unfair level.

Emsa8 said...

Sugardrops are fine, but what do you need points for? I don't know any contest where points are interesting.

Veronica said...

I got down to one so must be doable. Just needed a few more switches. Also a coconut wheel useful for clearing spawners

Anonymous said...

Got it without handswitches! Used coconut wheel to get rid of the spawners. Meanwhile carefully looked for a possibility to switch the acorn above an exit, even when the exit was not cleared yet. I used all moves, but it worked for me. AS Holland.

Elizabeth said...

Please help ! I cannot pass this level

Melanie said...

Posting for luck again! Too many days here. Totally up to the Candy Crush gods if you will win or not. I have no hand switches so at their mercy 😩

Sandy crusher said...

Finally passed and without any boosters! Good luck!

Stacey said...

Ugh. Posting for luck.... 🍀

Cris said...

What stress level is this? The sweets are almost 2 minutes going down on the board, when 1 ingredient is missing the movements end ... Aff

Jerseygirl said...

There are 4 exits. One in each popcorn column, but 2 in the middle popcorn column. You can do it without switches if you’re lucky. I needed only one. Throughout the game, look for moves to get the acorn to one of the exit columns. I cleared on 2nd try after figuring out the strategy. Good luck! Jerseygirl

Lost said...

If u ever need to quit, do so by switching to offline. Then close the whole game and not the quite button. U won't lose the bot.

Laurel said...

Came up short 2 acorns, ran for about 5 mins. with color bombs but no more acorns on the board. Any way of making them appear? All the bottom turn things were spinning.

Unknown said...

Levels like this make me glad I stockpiled hand switches

M T said...

I only see one exit column. What am I missing?

Sunny in Buffalo said...

MT, there are 4 exits, 1 below each spawner/popcorn (total of 3)and 1 center (2nd row up from the bottom). They are tough to see!!

EL BEATLE said...

I had to wait for the sugar drops x 2 to clear this level. They gave me the necessary hand switches to achieve this ( I used 4 in the end). If you don't use hand switches to change some of the the nuts into the columns with exit portals, then it will probably take a long time to clear this level - unless you are extremely lucky!

M T said...

To Sunny in Buffalo - Thanks for the info

Shanne said...

No hand switches and been down to one nut!!!!! I just got the sugar drops and claimed my THREE hand switches. Time to say goodbye to this sonofabitch level!!!

dr said...

Pity today is not Thursday when the CB contest starts.

What helps is a cb on a color that there are NOT MANY OF. It will get the 3 others together giving a better chance to switch. Also gives more bombs so you can do it again.

As for how to get the ingredients, stripes shooting down. No particular column. Every column has them and every stripe gives a nut until you have enough.

Had no switches in stock and won on first try although the wheel did give a few more moves. dr

Claire said...

Agree with other bloggers....tedious, boring, unable to complete without hand switches. Been on this for far too long, watching cascade after cascade, looking for moves to switch the nuts into the right column but to no avail! Come on CC, please do something with this level! Why are there so many portals when it doesn’t help move the nuts into proper alignment with the exits????

Mary-Rose74 said...

Geez this is a tough on, thanks for the tips everyone

This level just flat out stinks! Very difficult with hand switches of which I have none! Ugh!!! Needs lots of luck!

Michelle said...

Same hete. ..went on forevrt
Had to end game. .. still trying

Michelle said...

5 switches and 5 moves with a never ending Cascade in there. Thought I would have to quit again. .. bs that we need to put moves and use so many boosters.
Tired of this. .. not fun anymore

Turkeylady3 said...

This level is sickening seriously the constant cascades are awful no strategy Necessary They make it so you have to switching option Boring boring boring

Hooked said...

Boring, boring,boring and did I say boring.

Another level with absolutely no strategy or reason. Yes I know the need to switch columns but without switches can't happen.
Did I say this is a tiring boring I wonder why I'm here level !!!

Turkeylady3 said...

Omg if u get car sick don’t play this levels the Continuous cascading candies will make u sick It’s I believe the most ridiculous boring level ever And pretty freaken stupid

Francesmenth said...

Only played this level once and then came here. Glad I did.

Auntiemom said...

Still had full bot, used extra CB to start. Matched 2 CB. Then the endless cascades started. I managed to line a few up, then used hand switches. I was down to one nut, and it never appeared. I got to spin for 5 extra moves and then even used 10 saved gold bars from the races. It just kept cascading and that crummy nut never showed up. I can't believe I have to sit through this again. Nauseating level in more ways than one.

Fred said...

Without switches you can’t get it close
Vidéos shows an easy level
This is not fair

Otherwise it will be time to give up definitely

Erick S said...

Very difficult level. I played once without viewing the blog and had no clue how the board was working. Cookie's tips, and the comments here helped. I had to use up my hand switches, but got through it. Very frustrating level, I can't quite figure out the strategy how to do this without using up at least 4 hand switches (which is what I had left). Passed on my last move of my fourth attempt. Good luck everyone, thank you for the tips, and happy crushing!

Sharda said...

Help

Tou52 said...

OUCH!!! I've just read above comments and I see this level needs handswitches...and I have none :(:(

Should I even bother to try the game?

Posting for luck

Tou52 said...

Geez, the closest I got was down to two cherries, but without switches, It's impossible to finish :(

And I will certainly not pay to buy some.


So... (sorry El Beatle)......


Posting for luck

Tou52 said...

YES!!!!!!!
Eat your heart out, El Beatle :):)

Passed it with no hand switches and 1 move left.

Now that's the reason why I post for luck :):):)


Good luck everybody :)

Aussie said...

Bottom outside portals take the nuts to opposite far side at the top. Second column from bottom outside goes to second column on the top opposite side, and so forth. Top left goes to bottom right. Middle bottom exit doesn't cascade. So switch nuts to two columns second from outside, top or bottom, or the centre. Don't trust cascades, they stop quick when nuts are in correct columns I found. Sneaky king.

Rhodesia said...

I only had 2 hand shifts and after reading all the above I knew I could not waste them. I played very carefully watching every single nut possible move. On my 4th game with only three moves left, I had two nuts not lined up. Two hand shifts and hey presto game over with 3*

Dolce’ said...

Don’t get this level at all. 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Patty said...

Help

soutee said...

Each time I get down to the end of this level, it has only given me 19 nuts and I need 20. How is this possible to pass when there aren't enough of the required collectibles to complete it?

I finally just beat this horrible level after a few days of trying! I don't recommend using the coconut wheel booster because it just goes off at the wrong times and doesn't really make a difference given how easy cascades are on this level. It's important to get rid of the mixers and popcorns early so you have more time to work the board. I got to the end with three nuts left, and spun the wheel. I got 5 more moves, and in 4 moves I got rid of two nuts. That left me with one move and one nut! I used a hand switch (my only one!) to get it in an exit column and then one lollipop hammer to get a cascade going in the exit row on the opposite side of the board. So glad to be done with it!!

Jo said...

Finally passed after a day. What a horrrid horrid level. Worst bit was the endless cascades before you could make your move.

I worked out that using boosters made it all worse but I did use the CB to remove a minor colour every now and then as was suggested.

Patience and checking, making moves at the bottom of the board seemed to keep things under control a bit. I had two hand switches and I was determined to keep them till I KNEW I could complete the level. Phew!

It's got tougher over the recent sets of levels, that's for sure.

Crushmom7 said...

🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞

Lou said...

This has to be the worst level EVER.
Waiting for those damn cascades to finish to even get a chance to look at the board.
Cookie says exits on most columns......errrrr no, only 4 on the board to get rid of the nuts.
Now CC has gotten rid of giving you boosters to use when you wish and need them the most how on earth do you get any hand switches?!!
Now they give you timed boosters, most of which are useless in the game you are playing.
Like many others, I’m not paying for them and am sure this thinking has the opposite effect, players will go rather than pay.
YUCK YUCK YUCK all round

So many color bombs but of no use! Every shot I looked for switching the nut into position but never available what’s the go? I don’t have a cache of hand switches available like the video !

joyous100 said...

Just waiting for a lucky board

The Savage Traveler said...

Now I understand what everyone has been complaining about. Halfway into the game, I was in great shape, with nuts lining up to exits and dropping through nicely. With plenty of moves left I needed 9 more nuts. I had two on the board and 5 handswitches I could have used. But no matter how spectacular my Cascades, I never got more nuts. The FINAL move gave me 7 nuts but I was out of moves and it wasn't enough to win anyway. Finally, I agree with Ian. Time to quit. (I'm also a player who refuses to spend money to play.)

MissyM said...

I agree with FedUp. I am totally confused.
Someone posted great instructions as to how the portals work but I can't figure it out. Once things start falling they move too quickly.
I haven't had any nuts 'slide vertically' past a spawner to go into an exit.
I don't have switch hands and only one hammer.
I hope I don't get old before I get past this one LOL

Que nível stressante! Chato, não vai a lugar nenhum, cascata caem e vc não passa de nível....

Scotty said...

Ridiculous game! You have no control over the board and just when you think you can switch a nut into an exit lane the cascade starts up again and goes on forever. Not only frustrating but boring too. I refuse to buy hand switches to win this game and you can’t earn them anymore now that they’ve done away with the candy drop.

AL59 said...

Ridiculous level. Seems the developers have given up on us..... 20/30min cascades between moves. wtf.....

RedSoxDiehard said...

Frustrating level, and (at least now in Aug. '19) it's not even marked as hard. I managed to get through using just one hand switch at the end. I found it impossible to control which column the nuts dropped into, as there was just too much movement. What I did find helpful from Cookie's comments was to avoid popping the popcorn for a few moves anyway, and several did fall under the popcorn in the middle column even though they didn't start in that column. Then I let loose with a colorbomb/wrap that cleared most of the popcorn and spawners. After that I looked before every move to see if any could be swapped into an exit column. I didn't worry about them falling through, that will happen with future cascades, just line them up any chance you get. And of course that takes a lot of luck, because with all the cascading you can't set it up so that you'll be able to swap them the right direction. So once I had a lucky enough board where I was able to swap them over the exits, I got down to one remaining nut and used a free switch, then got it out on my last move. Phew!

Gabaway said...

Definitely need some luck from the candy guards on this one! I keep getting down to one or two acorns and then I'm just stuck. I have tried all of these suggestions and some work for a while but in the end still stuck! On a fun positive side note after playing all these levels I just learned today that when I thought were apples are actually acorns LMAO! Anywho, please send me some luck because I'm about ready to lose my mind with this level.

Gabaway said...

Thank you Candy God's! Amazing how posting here really does seem to work sometimes... I posted at 6:41 p.m. and at exactly 7 I finally passed the level... it was the very next time I tried to play that I passed. Stick with it guys it can be done, I was even able to do this without any boosters. It should be relabeled a nightmarish level though as this was ridiculous. My best advice is like people said above try to the best of your ability to control where the acorns drop and make sure you keep them out of the end columns. It is really difficult to control it but if you can hold off on killing the spawners and making small changes to try and avoid the ridiculous Cascades it can't be done. Very time-consuming and tedious but good luck everyone.

Oh, well - posting for luck - beginning to feel I could be doing something more creative with my time - like cleaning the cooker!

Tammy Caison said...

Lol...takesv5 minutes to play one game. 2 nuts to go with 20 moves left. Still failed. Ouch. Cpuldnt switch them because board blows up any strategy. Rats! More luck? Who knows.

Tammy Caison said...

Got it done on 2nd try. The whole board continued to blow up. Only had to strategize to get out a few nuts. Phew

Unknown said...

Ridiculous!

AnneC said...

After reading the comments, I was really worried about this level. I passed it on about my fifth try. I only used one switch booster. It was fairly easy to switch on the board. I thought this level was fun.

Fraggy said...

Sorry, but I quite enjoyed this once I established where the nuts were going. I didn’t have any hand switches. Once you clear the spawners, pause and look at every nut to see if you can move one across one place to a column with a portal. Understanding that the nuts remain in that column and move to the mirror image column helped, otherwise it appears random. There are enough moves if you take your time and look at each nut. The lengthy cascades are annoying rather than useful in this game.

Laura said...

Quit YELLING!

Laura said...

It took me 5 or 6 tries but I was determined to not use any boosters. Before you make a move be sure you know where the exits are and how the portals work. There are good descriptions in several posts here. Then after every move (almost all of which result in a cascade), look to see if you can move any ingredient into an exit row. If necessary, use swaps after you are sure you can complete the level. Otherwise, it's a waste. Good luck everyone and be patient.

No way to get nut out of outside column without hand switch!! So what to do about that !

Cruella714 said...

My board does not look anything like hers at all, all my apples are in columns without exits and even cascades to NOT put them in the right columns. Also, her video does not show apples at all, this is so awful! Terrible video if not realistic. I got down to 2 apples but only had one hand switch. I really with the videos were more accurate PS I will never spend a dine on dumb as levels like this that deliberately want you to buy boosters, NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!! Posting for dumb ass luck!

They've taken away exit columns then. There's only 4 exits and 3 exit columns.
I don't like it, I don't like it at all!(ノಠ益ಠ)ノ

Bumbalore said...

Well what a complete and utter waste of time. I got down to 2 or 3 nuts loads of times, with about 17 moves left and not one of them left me with a swap to put the nut in the correct column. And the ridiculous cascades that go on forever but achieve nothing at all. Dreadful, dreadful level. I have just finished it (eventually) but that was only after King decided to let me pass. Such a fix, this level has really annoyed me. Load of rubbish!!

Ggs said...

No hands switch, down to one, 12 moves left and no way to move it.

Marwanjo said...

I dont play boring games, waist of time!

Marwanjo said...

Believe me, dont play, only collect free boosters every day. I dont spent my time on boring levels. CC has to many boring levels and they are to difficult. So why waist time? The games they offer are much better. CC is old, not important news.

Marwanjo said...

So why should i believe in a CC game while most players do not believe in this game at alll? Clear as sugar.

Marwanjo said...

So why should i believe in a CC game while most players do not believe in this game at alll? Clear as sugar.dont believe in bullshitt games. Thats why i dont pla! Thats why i collect freeboosters every day while i play better games without stress !

Marwanjo said...

Ha,ha, and still CC dont understand why they are not populair anymore. Mabey Thea are to arrogant! To play a boring level is the end of a game. All levels of cc. Is not a fun to play. Thats why i collect free boosters everyday. To play this game does not have my interest. Its boring, old fashion. Play other games prefere my interest.

Marwanjo said...

Time on playing CC lose my interest!

Marwanjo said...

You see the level, play iT one time and immidiatly you decide not playing iT and only collect free boosters. This game is a waist of time. Glad whit much better games than cc. That why i use cc as fill my time, however after one try i give up, to boring.

Marwanjo said...

How arrogant can you be? Well cc is in his way to distroy themselve. I would say, go on. Your game is not have my interest. To boring and compare other games i play, cc is zero, mini’s zero.

Marwanjo said...

Just like i sais, Just like players say, all problems on the left or right sight. OMG this g ame is totaly idiotic to B3 honest i lose more and more interserst. Not my game

Marwanjo said...

Like i said before, dont play this level/ game, to boring, waist of time. I only collect free boosters every day. For the rest, this game is out of my system.

Teto said...

A very funny level. For once there's an adequate number of moves. Play carefully and you'll easily pass. Good luck.

Mama said...

Not a fan of this level!

Joosy said...

I was going to say it's really difficult but it's not. Just takes a lot of focus and concentration. Every time the cascades stop look at every nut to see if you can swap any of them to get next to exits. I got it after about 5 tries so it is possible and I used one swap hand that I had.

bonita said...

MERCY PLEASE. This level is giving me palpations to my old heart.
