Candy Crush Saga Level 5201 Tips and video

Hints and tips showing how to pass level 5201 Candy Crush Saga without boosters by Cookie
Level 5201 Candy Crush Saga is a score level, you have to score as many points as possible to complete the level. This is not an easy level to complete as the board is quite restricted and there are not a lot of bombs dropping which you need to get the score.
You need to make colourbombs at every opportunity and you also need to get bombs dropping into the bottom part of the board. Try to get as many bombs as possible onto the board before you use your colourbombs so you get the most points.
The candies from the top row will drop through the portals into the main part of the board, so you should be able to use the portals to get the candies into position to make colourbombs.
The fish can be really helpful for keeping the bombs under control as they will target the ones with the lowest countdown, but they are not helpful for getting the score. Avoid hitting the floats unless you need to clear bombs that are counting down, instead try to save the bombs for hitting with a colourbomb.

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.

Played this level many times not coming anywhere close to score needed, i finally passed by leaving a colourbomb on the board at the end, it detonated made cascades and finished with 3 stars.

Not even close. Why are a lot of these levels that are hard not marked as such? More hard levels anymore. I know we are good to get this far but really???

Becky said...

I agree with the others. Not even getting close! No opportunities to even consider making a color bomb! I'm afraid I need lots and lots of help!

Aussie said...

I got two colour bombs together and still not halfway. Total crap.

Becky said...

I'm so sick of this level! Undoubtedly I am making all the wrong choices! If I've been getting help it s not helping! Please a lucky board!

Posting for luck. Can’t get even close

Anna said...

Same as everyone, not close. I get around 200k-250k, 1/2 what is needed. Read Cookie’s tips now so will look for more CBs and give up on fish. Back to work..,

I am very close. I usually fall about 30,000 short from the goal. Do not use two colorbombs together because you will not get enough points. Save them when you have several bombs on the board if possible. That’s usually my trick on these ridiculous high score levels. Posting for luck 🍀

I’m gonna need that lucky board!!

Jaffa said...

I almost went a whole day without playing because I saw no hope in passing this level. I even used extra 15 moves and the ufo but the game stopped just shy of the goal. SO frustrating! But today, I realized that I was having a bit of luck coming close to the goal when I was able to make colorbombs and letting the game use them when you're out of moves. I did that twice and I FINALLY passed! Good luck crushers

Unknown said...

Colour bombs ideally should only be used when matched to a bomb, try to use other moves to open up just one place they can drop, the bomb count is 9 and so if you fill the board with them, they will count down on you.
Then match the CB with the bomb and repeat. The board gradually opens up and more chances to make more.
So I started with the full bot, but first move didn't touch the colour bombs. just a stripe down.
I didn't get stuck on this one, passing first time, so have no experience of dealing with the problems that may happen.

Posting for luck please not even coming close

Miss T said...

Thank you. Good to know. I have tried the double bomb and haven't made the game yet. Luck to you and me.

Eliza h said...

Need luck! Stuck again!

Mr. Magog said...

Someone mentioned to leave a colorbomb for the end. I was super lucky enough to have 2 left over and they got me three stars. Try leaving at least one for the end and see what happens. Happy Easter all!

The colour bomb worked. I was lucky to get several throughout the game. Saved one for last!

If this level used to be 560,000 then the video posted is rigged because the score was only 400,000 which is what the minimum to pass is now.

Sue said...

Crap level only came close twice. All luck no skill. You can play with your eyes closed and do just as well. But, No Help., please CC. Doing it on my own as always.

Laura said...

I just played and the score was only 120,000! Yeah! I had to play 3x and I swear the score was higher the list 2x. I'll take it and run...

O vídeo do Cookie foi editado como sempre, para dar a impressão de que é fácil. A pontuação conseguida no vídeo é menor do que consta, e mesmo assim aparece que o nível foi concluído. Tudo aqui neste jogo é uma fraude. Estou saindo fora, sorte para quem fica.

Joanne said...

This is no longer a high score level

Petunia said...

You now need 120,000 points to pass the level, but they must have changed some other underlying assumption of the board because I’ve been playing this for at least 5 days and can’t get over 100,000 points. Sprinkle, wrapped or striped, left on the board or detonated....nothing working. Just have to wait for a lucky board I guess. One of the most boring levels.

bonita said...

thanks for the tips BUT game is more restricted & lowered moves from 23 to 18 & Have to clear 63 blockers. Impossible with so few moves--rotten evil CC King developers want players to BUY moves since NO FREEBIES from greedy pig KING.
Please Lucky Board--been playing over & over.

Anonymous said...

Wow, not even the same board and now instead of getting to a certain score, you have to clear the blockers, which are pretty much impossible within 18 moves. Another boosters required to complete the level, little skill involved.
