1 – 200 of 210 Newer› Newest»I just opened the CC "App" on my laptop. I'm pretty sure it like my phones was two weeks behind the couple of times I've tried it before, but not anymore. So maybe I'll try playing next weeks new levels there, if Space Dash shows up.
Space dash is amazing although I didn't have it for long. One of the ways that facebook has changed is that it's really easy now to scroll down to the bottom so playing for sugar drops is easier. I filled up the space dash playing level one and then collected sugar drops. I had double the boosters that the helmet gave except still only 3 extra moves not 6. But starting with 2 CB and not having to add your own is fun. You could start with 3 if you wanted to.
Even more weapons of mass destruction: Not sure why, but I earlier this morning I was wandering around the game playing old levels. I am playing the newest (I think) PC version. Just in case you didn't know (I didn't) if you complete level 2000 you get a BUNCH of boosters, including a UFO. I'm now stockpiling UFOs. Have five so far. 2000 isn't super hard, and a check mark booster really helps. With a UFO to use, on top of a space dash or helmet, the game should become just about pointless.

2000 is the way to go. Harvesting sugar drops gives me a lot of check marks and coconut wheels that I already have a lifetime supply of. On 2000 you get a hammer, switch hand, color bomb, stripe wrap, UFO, check mark and coconut wheel every time. You can keep going all day if you want to. I'm taking a break to go eat. Now have 21 UFOs in the stock pile plus a bunch of other good stuff.

I'm off to try 2000 - thanks for the tip MB.
It worked just once for me:( I got it three times and it only gave me the boosters for the first one. I went out and loaded the game again and won the level three stars and no more boosters:( So, you are a very lucky guy indeed MB good for you and thanks again for letting us know... I know have a UFO and a paintbrush that I wouldn't have gotten. Didn't we get boosters for 1000 too... I'm going to find out. Also, when I was goofing around trying out the new space dash I found that I got color bombs for the first few levels. Not that we need color bombs we have an abundance of them tossed our way with the space dash etc. Oh my I wonder what they are up to with this game. For now it is fun LOL.
Only worked once for me too. Or rather three times. Once on each of my two phones and on the windows 10 app, but not on King.com.
I don't remember if we got boosters for level 1000, but I do remember that it was very difficult to pass.
Hi Ditte, yes 1000 is a very difficult level and I believe I passed it with lots of extra lives. I haven't passed it again yet so I don't know and I don't remember exactly if we did or not. I am not using my hard earned lives to find out.... but if anyone does find out I'm sure they will let us know:)
After each time I play 2000, I have to have windows reload the page. Apparently that resets the game so I can do it again. Just playing it game after game doesn't work. Sorry, forgot to mention that.
MB
Lostmessages@charter.net
Also forgot to mention, I don't get any paint brushes. apparently there are still many version to version differences. I'm playing with Facebook on a PC.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
MB how do you get windows to reload the game? What steps do you take. I don't know how to get windows to reload. I played it on my laptop with windows on facebook and got it to do it once but I tried to come out and go back into a fresh facebook and loaded the game again from Facebook but it wouldn't do it again. am I missing something??? Onward lucky Crusher!
OC, I'm using the Firefox browser, but think they all work about the same. On the right end of the field where you type in a URL, there is a semicircle (about 3/4th of a circle) with an arrow head at about the 2 o'clock position that reloads the current page. That seems to reset everything in the game. Just like if I wanted to play 1476 several times in a row, I would have to do that. Otherwise, exiting the game, and coming back in might work, but would take a lot more time.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
Thanks, MB -- I will try that later. Coming back into the game from google chrome doesn't work. But, I will give it a whirl on Windows.
Does anyone else find the Windows reset work for them too? OC
Sure wish King would buy boosters back for what they sell them for.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
wtf is a check mark?
Nope not happening for me... but at least I have two UFOs that I didn't have and I think I also have a paintbrush. A check mark is the booster used when you need to collect orders. OC
Well space dash appeared this morning. Helpful for getting sugar pop levels finished quickly. Good tip a while ago... about backing out of the level with the back arrow and then you don't lose a life or the space dash level. Now I have a nice full little space dash spaceship to have fun with for the next three days:) OC
As for level 1000 even if we did get goodies for passing it -- no more at least for me... passed it again this morning and nope no goodies. So ho off to enjoy the day. Have enough boosters to sink a battle ship anyways... OC
Level 2000 gives way more than winning the jackpot on the daily spin!!
I am so very grateful for the daily spin. It has given me a lasting horror and aversion to slot machines. My high school maths is very limited, but from the little I know of statistics, if a wheel with 8 possibilities is spun randomly, the probability of it stopping on any slot should be one in eight. If over the years, we have only hit the jackpot a couple of times, instead of every week or so, it means the thing is rigged. If the King company does it, all the slot machines and other electronic devices in Vegas must do it. Gambling is for the mathematically challenged - or the incredibly naive.
Thanks MB for the 2000 booster tip. How come we all missed it? I assume because it's not a sugar drop level. No paintbrush appeared for me, and to be frank, the ufos are not controllable, and could potentially do more harm than good. I missed out on the reset trick, so shall try again tomorrow or maybe in another 8 hours.
Dee
My facebook version has reverted back to the old way again. Yeeha. Hopefully it will stay this way. Screw the spaceships and the helmets. I haven't collected any drops for a few days and I just popped in to do my daily spin and thought I'd give it a play as I'm missing my daily fix!
Moany Pete
I've never hit the Jackpot on the daily spin. level 2000 still won't give me boosters. I tried logging out of the windows 10 app. Couldn't log back in with my e-mailaddress, tried reentering my name etc and now I'm back to level one on the app and with a new avatar. Things are okay on my phones and on king.com. But I guess I won't be trying the Space Dash tomorrow, as I planned to do. I don't understand how I can create a new account with the same name, e-mailaddress and accescode as on my excisting account.
Hi all! I've been living on level 2000 most of yesterday and today. Should have enough boosters to see me through tomorrow (and more than likely the next couple weeks). Also, the space dash showed up again yesterday morning and there is still well over 66 hours left on it. Just wanted to say howdy before I head over to the VFW for our 4th of July cookout. Plan on eating at least my weight in hamburgers and chicken.
Oh, forgot to say it (again). I still have never hit the jackpot on the wheel.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
Happy 4th all! Ditte that sounds aweful. I hope you have filed a ticket to get it sorted. Still don't get why MB can harvest 2000 when most of us can only do it once on each server. I did it on my Chromebook, laptop, and even downloaded Firefox so I could do it again:) However, each version gave me only one shot. Not sure about the Space Dash... I have been using it to collect sugar pops but the boosters it gives soon blow each other up and I wind up not finishing the level and backing out to save the Dash. I will evaluate it again tomorrow with the new set. Party on and go onward crushers! OC
I finally managed to log back in. My e-mailaddress was linked to the right avatar again and after a few tries where my password was rejected I succeded.
Before the next levels upload, I have an unusual request.
MB – could you kindly refrain from (legitimately) using the UFOs that only you are able to harvest? This way, your marvellous tips will be helpful to all the rest of us who are unable to establish lasting contact with alien life forms…..
Dee
Dee, OK, I shall not fly my saucers. They're late releasing the new levels, I don't have them yet.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
Maybe someone pushed the wrong button today and released two episodes of CC Soda Saga instead :-) They're usually out Friday, but this morning there were 30 new levels on my phone.
ON 2621 DO NOT start by putting two color bombs together. Once in ingredient drops below the teleport, you are pretty much out of luck. They go across the top left to right, thru the teleports, then across the bottom right to left. They must not go into the main area of the board.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
Lots of fun levels this week. They put some thought into these levels for sure. Some very challenging.
I could have been doing with spaceships this week for sure.
Moany Pete
I had the exact same problem with 2621. The two colourbombs from the Space Dash were next to each other I switched them and everything looked fine until I could find absolutely no way to get the last two ingredients.
Some interesting levels. Didn't make it in one life because of starting 2621 by combining two color bombs... so a two life week. 2628 just seemed evil. Won't have time until tonight, but the no booster replay round promises to be a challenge.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
Yep some fun levels.... hard to remember them all since it's a quick ride through them these days. I just kept backing out so as to not lose the dash if I couldn't make it first time. Some good sugar pop ones. Sugar pops are not giving me many hammers and switches which is really all we need to get through. I have this star thing for experience that goes up when you complete levels. Anyone else have that? It doesn't seem to give anything for the experience... at least not yet. I only have a score of 4 for experience... that doesn't seem fair considering I've completed all levels thus far:) OC
How do you back out without losing the Space Dash? I can't do that. Only if I haven't made a move. Awful week. Way to many ingredients levels. In 2629 the ingredient just kept falling of the conveyor.
Ditte - if you use the black back arrow on the left of the screen where you put in web addresses you can save the dash. If you press the back arrow you will have to reload the game from Facebook again but you won't lose your dash, and I don't think you lose a life either. You also don't lose any of the boosters that you decided to play with like the color bombs from your stash. Hope that works for you too. OC
Yep 2629 forced me to use a few hand switches and a hammer or two. I hated that level. Seems to me they are being very stingy with the hand switches and hammers in the sugar pop giveaways now. Anyone else notice that? OC
2629 looked like an accident waiting to happen, so I went right to the hands to get across the drops and on to the exit. The way the board cascades like crazy made it pretty obvious the only the luckiest board would let you across naturally.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
I'm not on Facebook and don't have the new version, but have the dash on the windows app so unfortunately I can't use the back arrow.
Ditte - could you just close out of candy crush then without using the close thing in the game. Just click the X at the right of the screen to get you out. That might work?? Sorry - it is so nice to be able to reset the game and not lose the dash.
OC
What is the Windows App? OC
I think that might actually work. Just X-et out of 2621, and when I opened the app again the dash boosters were still there. I have to test it some more. I can use escape to reset the game, if I haven't made a move.
The app came with Windows 10 on my laptop (I think it's in Windows 8 too). Or maybe I got it from the Windows app store. It looks a lot like the apps on my android phones. But unlike the phones it's not two weeks behind. I think it was once, but not anymore. Doesn't seem to have the daily boosterspin, but otherwise has the same opportunities to earn boosters as the phoneapps.
Ditte - thanks for the info on the Windows app. I did that and the game is funner than on Facebook with Chrome because there are other side games like on the phone, but you are up with the current levels. Only thing is that boosters don't transfer from one platform to the other but the levels do so it is another way to play and 2000 worked again but only once I'm sure although I haven't tried more yet. Gotta go get on with the day.... too much time with this silly game for one day... Onward Crushers and have fun! OC
OC -- On boosters, we should merge our games -- I get almost ALL handswitches and lollipop hammers from my sugar drop harvests (literally I have more than 150 of each) but can hardly get a color bomb or stripe/wrap combo and the levels of those dip dangerously low. Now I did play 2000 once yesterday (thanks MB!) and was richly rewarded. Headed back there now that this week's levels are done. Happy Crushing! ES
I have just finished this set. The levels were again very difficult, and the magic dash – helmet – space ship or whatever they wish to call the extra boosters was essential. MB’s tips, as usual, were right on the nail. A double bomb explosion in 2621 would have resulted in a hopeless nightmare, and without the use of multiple hand switches on 2629, I would have been stuck there till next week or longer.
I don’t really understand the psychology of the developers. From the beginning I have viewed CC as a challenging game of chess, with King engaging in multiple strategies to induce us to pay for our pleasure, and we gamers resorting to countless tactics in order to play for free. Are they now trying to get us hooked on helmets so we will buy them when withdrawn? With so many free boosters, who is paying for them or for extra lives? And why have they stopped asking if it was a fun level?
Just wondering whilst waiting eagerly for next Wednesday,
Dee
I dunno either Dee. It can't be profitable for them anymore. In the past I've paid for a hammer or two and extra lives here and there, but now there is no need. Happy about that, but the game seems pointless now since every level is very easy to beat. I like the Windows App version because there are other games included when you are waiting for the new batch like the countries and having to get certain colors for boosters. Not that the rewards are that great, but it is something else to do other than harvest sugar pops to get a bigger abundance of boosters. OC
So I played level 2000 on my iphone and after I won I was presented with all the cool boosters but... the boosters were not added to my existing ones :( what a tease. Going to try facebook next and then kindle... hope I get it at least once!! I have firefox on facebook so have high hopes for that.
Well this is odd... I played level 2000 on facebook via Firefox and lo and behold I was given all the treasures and this time they were added to existing boosters. Then I refreshed the page and suddenly I had the old version of the game on facebook. Tried refreshing many times but the new version doesn't come back and... level 2000 gives nothing on the old version.
Sure wish I could come up with a reason why I can play 2000, collect the boosters, restart CC, play 2000, collect... over and over. I've been playing it like crazy the last few days. up to 3334 stockpiled boosters: 223 hammers, 264 switch hands, 342 color bombs, 284 stripe/wraps, 176 UFOs, 518 fish, 773 check marks, 716 coconut wheels and 38 gold bars. This is totals including what I had left when the 2000 thing started. Too bad 2000 doesn't give gold bars. Oh well, back to work.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
That is sooooo cool MB you're set up for a long time and don't have to play for sugar drops which is so boring. I'd be happy just to get the new FB version back, I like it so much better. I think I'll look in my history and maybe can get it back that way.
MB you are a very lucky crusher indeed. Does anyone else have the experience star thing that appears at the left top corner. I only have 5 experience stars (not playing hard these days:)) Anyways you get rewards when you hit a certain level... Big wow (lol) I got 5 lives for getting to 5 stars... are there other rewards other than lives as one creeps higher on the experience stars? MB do you have that? Onward Crushers.... Oh and does anyone play the countries on the Windows App... I am finding it very difficult and gave up. OC
Yea OC, I have the star. Mine is on 6. Imagine what our numbers would be if the star had existed when we started. It would look like a zip code.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
Last Monday the Space Dash showed up for me. Today it has NOT shown up. Does anyone else have it yet? I was very spoiled last week whizzing through the levels with that. On the Windows app I have a mini version of the helmet for a while. Just one color bomb per game... not nearly as impressive as the Space Dash and it will be gone before Wednesday. Hope the Space Dash shows up. Do you have it yet MB? OC
Nevermind... it showed up!!! Happy crusher here:) OC
So, this morning I have two episodes that have golden balls with little crowns on the top for each level along the path. Does anyone know what that means? I can't find anything about this anywhere. Has anyone else got this and do you know what it means? OC
OC - are they new episodes, old episodes which we harvest for sugar drops or something to do with the space dash?
The new episodes only come out on Wednesday afternoon in our local European time.
Still haven't succeeded in repeating the level 2000 bonanza that MB is mining.
It would appear that everyone has a different version on different devices and possibly different regions and time zones. Unless we are the beta guinea pigs. I still reckon that there are only about half a dozen of us active on these pages, and that the rest of the planet are either far behind or (sensibly) have given up and are pursuing active, meaningful and fun filled lives.
Dee
Hi Dee, they are the two episodes at the very end of the trail. I don't have a new one yet. I play on a chromebook on Facebook. Those two episodes have a gold ball and a crown on the top to signify each level. But, they do nothing. It doesn't seem to have anything to do with the Space Dash. Just gold balls along the path with little crowns on the top. I do have the new version. It doesn't happen on the Windows App. Oh well, perhaps something new will happen tomorrow. Thanks so much for responding. OC
Hi All! I just finished watching youtube vids of the new stuff coming out tomorrow. I guess the beta testers (or something) post them. A couple notes. If nothing has changes, 2634 will be a timed level 15700 in 40 seconds. I can't decide if it looks hard. But since I can't do a reset, on a timed level, without loss of like this may play havoc with the space dash and my "one life" goal. 2638 needs 1500000 in 20 moves. It starts with a bunch of bombs, already on the board. Probably not a good one to start by putting two color bombs together. This would probably destroy a lot of bombs, needed for high points, at less than optimum scoring.
Thought I'd pass this along, just in case the videos show what we are actually going to get.
MB
lostmessages@charter
My levels have went back to the shitty spaceship thing. No more sugar drops for me as it's a pain in the arse and I don't get the level 2000 thing either (no luck). So it's a battle to reach level 3000 then it's quit time.
Moany Pete
Timed level 2634!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you have space dash, DON'T do anything! I used one of my color bombs and a stripe / wrap. This plus the 2 color bombs and 2 stripe wraps from the dash do all the work. Don't make a move. Just let the clock run out and when it all blows up at the end WINNER! 30840 points for me. Just HAD to try it.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
The spaceship makes it so easy it's almost like cheating. 2640 gave me problems along with another couple of levels but mostly easy with this spaceship thing. Ruins the whole game when you can basically just obliterate a hard looking level in a couple of moves.
Moany Pete
Well, Now to start the no booster pass. Then back to playing level 2000 over and over until next week.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
MB - where were you an hour ago when I freaked out on the timed level? I lost all my lives and boosters and had to redo a dozen times.
Any more tips for the rest? currently lifeless on 2636.
Moany Pete, having the space ship does NOT ruin the game. It is the bad programming and the need for luck instead of skill that is ruining it. I like to finish the entire episode quickly, then replay the levels at my leisure without boosters, thus being challenged without being frustrated and resentful.
Dee
So, I finished with only one life again... not that hard but took a lot of hand switches and hammers. I found out what the golden balls with the crowns on them are. You get a golden ball with a crown if you finish the level with only one life. It said I would get a sweet reward but I didn't see any rewards. It spurred me on to see if I would get a big reward at the end.... NOPE... none of the promised rewards. Just an episode with all golden balls with crowns on top:) Anyone else have the golden balls.... MB you must have them:) Oh and yes, thanks for the big tip of the week MB -- would never have tried that with the timed level. It worked like a charm. Heck, all done and off to enjoy the day in a little over an hour.... what is the World of Candy Crush coming to? I agree with Dee that it is nice to get it done and then go back later to see if you get them without boosters. I don't try to hard to do that -- like to play for fun and that is that! Onward Crushers.... easy does it!
Stupid me. I forgot that I can close the Windowsapp down without losing the space dash, if I can see I can't pass the level. That cost me some boosters and goldbars :-(.
Gold everyone survived. Nope OC, no golden balls... just whatever that little emblem is for space dash. I made it on one life ONLY because of trying that stupid trick on the timed level. Played it several times since, without boosters and haven't made it.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
Ditte, I also discovered on the Windows App that you can take it all the way down to where they ask if you want to play on or not. You can check out there and still keep the Space Dash. So you can go ahead and use that last move and still x out.... It worked for me anyways. OC
Well. That’s me done for another week, way behind everyone else as usual.
Thank you OC for the tip about finishing the level completely and still keeping the space dash. Without that I would still be on 2642 and cursing.
Once again, the episode was very hard and heavily booster dependent.
Tried 2000 again after the new episode was released, in the vain hope that the rewards would reset. Negative. MB sure is one lucky dude.
Back to harvesting sugar drops.
Dee
Feel better soon, MB. I guess you have enough boosters to last till next Christmas.... so rest up and enjoy a break! At least till Wednesday when we will all need the MB tipster:) OC
So sorry to hear about your accident MB... hope you heal really fast and painlessly.
Sorry to hear about your injury MB, and I hope that you fully recover very soon. We are warned that about 77% of all accidents occur in the home, but one certainly does not consider showering a hazardous activity. Having twisted my leg running for a bus in December, and still being able to remember the acute agony of hobbling to the bathroom, I can really sympathise with you.
Dee
...at least there are no timed levels this week. Some of the levels have fairly low numbers of turns to finish what must be done. Good Luck All !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
MB - are you privy to some secret source of information that we lesser mortals have no access to? The new levels aren't out till tomorrow. Counting on you to breeze through the entire episode in one hour flat (busted wrist notwithstanding), and providing us with terrific tips.
Dee
I search by level numbers and look at youtube videos, of the new levels, that are there. I guess there must be some kind of Beta testers doing it. They were all right on for last week. Not a bad idea to take a look at the enemy in advance...
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
OK armed with the magic helmet thingy and MB's tips.... we will be just fine.... see you all tomorrow:) OC
Incredibly easy this week. Spaceships do have this effect on this game. All challenge is gone, Playing on seems futile.
Level 3000 please hurry up. Then bye bye Candy Crush.
Moany Pete
Any tips for 2651?
:-( I'm trying for the fourth time. The first three my post didn't go through. I passed 2561 by switching a colourbomb with a wrapped candy of the same colour as the top striped candy. That made the nut fall left into the column with the striped candies instead of to the right which seems to be a dead end road
WOW ! ! ! Probably the easiest week ever (thank you space dash). One life, 36 minutes and 18 seconds. Very few boosters from the stockpile, no UFOs. Starting to wonder what I'll ever do with 464 UFOs. The evil level writers must be off at a convention somewhere.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
Thanks for the tip about the dead end road Ditte. The wrapped candy at the top didn’t do it for me. Nasty level and the space dash boosters more of a hindrance than a help. Managed to pass the old fashioned way, with a simple coconut wheel and a few hand switches and hammers.
Dee
I couldn't move the nut with hands once it had fallen right. It's important not to clear the top right blocker before you switch the colourbomb and wrapped candy. It's pretty easy to get the nut down if you can get it to fall left and very difficult if not impossible if it falls right
stuck on 2652. any tips? i have gone back to level one for the color bomb which is necessary to get to the key
I suggest you play level one 7 times so you get to start with two colourbombs. Reset the game until they are next to each other and switch them. That gives you the key and clears most of the cake. It worked for me the first time and I just replayed it doing the same before writing this.
I got level 2651 with two color bombs switched together. It was a nasty level and I had to back out a number of times. Finished the whole episode in about 90 minutes -- slow compared to MB who whizzed by three times faster than me. I didn't make it with one life so I have three levels with no golden balls with crowns on top.... if you back out they count that as a life but still let you keep all the magic. Crazy game these days.... remember when it took us nearly a week to finish an episode... now we think we are slow if it takes more than an hour!!! I suspect the game is winding down and will probably end at 3,000. Oh well... was a fun morning... and so we go onward crushers and on with our day. OC
Ditte is correct on 2652. I added a fish, just because I have several hundred of them.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
Finished behind all you guys, same as usual. The ease of the episode will only be judgable when we do it without the help of the space ships. Since even MB had to use boosters from his well stocked stock pile, it is reasonable to assume that these levels are by no means a walk over. I will just comment that level 2656 looks like the old type of fun, and that makes a pleasant change. Back to the hardware store for hammers for next week.
Dee
I recommend playing 2660 on king.com instead of in the Windows app. On king.com the frog can be used on the chocolate above the cherry which will bring the cherry down. In the windows app it can't. Not much point in having the frog then....
One bad thing about space dash, is that it makes it very difficult to do the second pass through without boosters. Since the dash inserts boosters into every level, the only way to not use boosters is to fail a level. Then your next round is without boosters. As soon as you win a level, a color bomb comes back. Sooo, you have to fail a level before every one you try to pass without boosters. I still have a bit over 39 hours before my space dash goes away.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
You can just play a (few) very easy level(s), like one of the first 30 and the boosters come back
Thank you Ditte. When I open the King version it does not sync with my level and starts me at level 1. The spaceship does not seem to help and I can't break the chocolate or cage around the cherry. Any other ideas?
Thank you. That did it!
I was able to sync King on another computer and completed it easily. many thanks!
Carol you should be able to log in on King.com. In my version (Danish https://king.com/da/play/candycrush) you can click on "settings"/"indstillinger" in the top right corner above the game. When you log in the games should sync. There is no Space Dash (on the Danish version) on King.com. I used a colourbomb instead.
You're welcome. I started writing my 06:58 answer before your 06:46 post. So you had already figured it out on your own.
I'm struggling with level 2660, how do you release the cherry without a booster? The frog will not go there and the licorice reappears immediately. I noticed it has been said to play on King.com, I have logged on there and am back at level 1. AD
AD - this forum came to the conclusion many weeks ago that the "no booster boast" is no longer relevant. There are multiple levels that cannot be completed without them, even by the best players, and this is one of them.
Instead of making these levels passable without boosters, King generously provides you with them gratis, in several different formats - either with the daily spin, sugar drop harvesting or space dash once a week.
They must have their own sound economic motives for same, but as a simple Candy Crush addict, lacking a degree in Business Management or Psychology, I am unable to fathom them.
Dee
AD have you tried clicking on settings and then account? There is a option there about syncing. I don't dare test it out myself by logging out. I logged out from the Windows App a couple of weeks ago and somehow created a new account with the same e-mailaddress, username and password but another avatar. and had big problems logging in on the right account again. I was back at level one.
The only way is to break the chocolate with a hammer and put the frog on the space above the cherry
Thanks all, I just like the challenge of not using boosters or the new spaceship to pass levels. Easy enough to do with boosters, I just though I had missed something AD
2655 any tips .??????????
Hi all! Well, three specialists later they decided to add some non decorative hardware to the inside of my wrist. This will happen Tuesday afternoon, so don't know if I'll be able to do the usual Wednesday morning thing. In case I can't get on, to make my usual nasty comments, Goodest Luck everyone.

My problems with 2642......I've been playing for days, the game will re-shuffle even though there are matches to make, and when I convert 'lucky' candies, they turn to other colours instead of the red and yellow, and, ...., when I do match three yellow or red, they don't show up on the score. Joh
So, I'm sure the makers of this game watch this site, I posted my complaining post above for this game last night and lo and behold, I passed it this morning. Thank you candy crush makers, ....I'm glad you're taking notice. Joh
Joh – I seriously doubt that the Candy Crush people monitor this site, or any other site in any other language. There are probably hundreds. More likely people contacted them directly and advised them of the problem. Maybe Cookie could include a link to the developers so that we can report from here?
Dee
They took my Spaceship. It was full, ready for next levels.
Space Dash is usually only there Monday-Friday.
Good luck MB. Hoping you will be able to do the early morning jaunt so that we can all get a head's up about what is looming up. Hope your wrist feels better soon. OC
Thanks OC! As long as I don't take the velcro brace off, it doesn't hurt at all. The imaging shows something that looks like a 53 car pile up on some major highway.

IMPORTANT !!!! EVERYONE do a search and watch a youtube video of 2663, The teleport flow is not obvious. You need to know this.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
Thanks for the tip MB and I hope that your wrist rewiring procedure tomorrow is successful. We need you.....
Dee
Yep looks like you gotta clear those blockers in the middle of 2663. Thanks for the tip MB. However, we the magic dash shouldn't be too hard... ha famous last words! Onward Crushers till tomorrow....
Spaceship makes it too easy yet again. I no longer do the sugardrops every day as why bother.

Made it through on one life again. The only problem child was 2669. Collecting enough licorice went right down to the wire. Took some hammering. still haven't used a UFO. Have 609 of them parked in the stockpile. Maybe I will attack mars and get revenge for all the terrible sci fi movies from the 50s and 60s.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
Hi everyone,
I finished 2669 but it wont finish. I keep getting colorbombs. My score is already over 42 million.
Can i stop it?
Anyone else has the problem?
Well -- not stuck yet 2663 caused me problems and never did figure out the paths. Hubby in tow right now and checking out of hotel and catching flights etc etc so I will be slowed down for a few hours... Onward Crushers:)
God knows how you can have that many ufos. I have zero and they never appear as a bonus for me. Probably level 2000 spits them out for you.
As you said they aren't needed anyway.
Moany Pete
Pete: Yea I get one every time I play 2000. Have over almost 8000 boosters piled up. Can't figure out why nobody else gets to do this. I'm playing through Facebook on a PC using the Firefox browser. Every time I finish 2000 I reload the browser page and play 2000 again. Haven't tried it with any other means of playing.
OC: On 2663, the cherries go from the top through teleports to the left and right sides, where they stay until they can drop into (through another teleport) into columns 4 and 6 which are above the exits.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
Nothing to bad. I challenge myself to get three stars on all the levels. Don't think that will happen with level 2672 and definitely not level 2675 where I can't even get one star.
Finished last, same as usual. I agree with Ditte - nothing too bad.
MB - you seem to have weathered the operation without ill effects - maybe they put in some bionic components (not that you needed them).
It always reassures me when you mention that you also needed to use hammers and switches despite the spaceship's formidable power.
Returning to the sugar drop crop in preparation for next week's surprises,
Dee
Can anybody tell me the point of the completed with one life "feature" we've had the last couple of weeks on the Windows App and mobile, but not on King.com? Last week rewards were promised for the levels, but I didn't see any. And it's annoying not being able to see, which kind of level it is, not even if it's a sugardrop level because of the "golden wraps"
I used to play Candy Crush on Firefox but it kept crashing all the time, so I moved to Opera just for Candy Crush whilst using Firefox as my browser for everything else.
I just tried Candy Crush in Firefox and I got the bonus at level 2000 but just the once. Any further shots give me nothing.
We will reach level 3005 the last Wednesday of the year. This is where I get off the bus. My new year resolution is to stop playing this godforsaken game.
Moany Pete
Moany Pete - I would love to join you and also get off the CC bandwagon. I have personally forsworn the game at least 3 times, but have lacked the strength of will to persevere for more than a few months. All I ask for is an alternative game, full of interest and challenge, without violence and mayhem, suitable for grown ups (one daren't write "adults" for reasons that shouldn't be obvious), a game which is not an affront to one's intelligence, sensibilities or wallet. Is it too much to ask?
Waiting for recommendations - Dee
Finally done... definitely the last of us to complete this week. Always easy now. Like your idea of challenging oneself for three stars, Ditte. I have no idea of the point of the golden balls. I didn't get all golden this week and I agree it is not that great because you can's see what kind of level they are or if they are sugar pop levels. I wish FB had the same fun ones that the phone has. Lots of opportunity to play fun side games while waiting for the weekly new levels. Onward Crushers....
I have a bug with level 2669. Once you "win" it will not stop self exploding, any clues?
Just played again and this time it worked OK. What the???
Just finished watching the videos of tomorrows batch. No timed levels. Nothing looks too terrible. 2682 looks like a candidate for starting with a color bomb then trying not to use it or the two from space dash. The three of them, blowing up at the end, should provide most of the needed points.
Goodest luck all!
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
where can I watch the videos?
Just google candy crush and the level number you want to see. There is usually a youtube video for upcoming levels by Monday or Tuesday at the latest. Often a lot earlier.

lostmessages@charter.net
Uneventful week. Nothing worth reporting, other than you need to be prepared to wait a looooooong time for the cascading to end after 2687. It took over 10 minutes. I was afraid it was going to be another one of those eternal cascade glitches.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
At level 2686 the right ingrediënt wont fall? Anyone else had this problem?
It won't fall in the Windows App, but it will on king.com
Late start for me today.
I thought the first level was the hardest. Also a level (I forget what one)cascaded forever.
Also this verify thing is shite. Fuck that.
Moany Pete
I noticed. thanks. On windows google chrome it wont fall but with IE it does fall.
That is some hefty cascading going on after 2687. Waiting (hoping) for it to stop. I have over 14.000.000 points so far.
Still waiting for the cascading to stop... Over 105 million points now.
465 million.... I tried on king.com instead. Passed with difficulty, not as easy without space dash. But it crashed/froze before it finished :-(
Finished the episode on king.com. 2687 is still cascading. 795 million points. Doesn't seem like it's ever going to stop. And if it does it probably starts again since I passed it with 4 moves left.
I gave up when the score was well over one billion. Checkmark candies kept falling, many of them turning into colourbombs. Have since replayed it without problems.
All done. I thought it was trickier this week. I had to use 4 hammers for the first one and three I didn't finish with one life. On the one with the tricky ingredient, I found it would fall with a color bomb and stripe the same color as the one closest to the ingredient. So if that candy in the middle at the top was blue my color bomb stripe was blue too and that seemed to work to shift the candy down. On the cascading nightmare one I waited for about ten minutes. Done and dusted in about two hours.... so way slower than the rest of you I am sure... but done and off to enjoy the week. Onward Crushers....so funny complaining that it took two hours and that I couldn't finish with only one life.... I think I better get on with my life LOL.... this game is thankfully way too easy now. Oh by the way did anyone else get a gift for passing the previous level. I got a big top with lots of little gifts to choose from. I won a fish! Yep... not one of those... NOT! Oh well... I shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth:) All one really needs to hammers and handswitches and those a sparse for me on the sugar pops.... I get one or two on the last round but I don't play sugar pops much.... sorry this is long and probably boring:) See ya all next week. OC
Done (at) last. Again, unable to judge whether it was hard or not due to the space ship. Even with its generous complement of boosters , I had to add my own (fish, lucky candy, bombs and hammers) in order to use only one life.
No point in asking MB if his precious stores are depleted, since he has the level 2000 bonanza to revert to, but how about the rest of you? Am I the only one that cannot do it without extra boosters, and need to harvest sugar drops weekly (weakly)?
Dee
No you are not Dee... I have to also. I didn't make it on one life this week. So I'd say you are doing great. I tried to save my boosters and that's probably why I didn't make it. OC
Went back and played 2687 again. It's been cascading for almost an hour now. Think I'll let it run overnight.
Not too much of a dent in the stockpile this week. Thanks to 2000, and stuff I had before that discovery, The pile now contains: 803 hammers, 947 switch hands, 717 UFOs, 942 color bombs, 925 stripe/wraps, 1247 fish, 1522 check marks, 1499 coconut wheels, and 93 gold bars. I know, that at this point, it is stupid to keep playing that level over and over, but it's like the game itself: I can't stop.
MB
MB -for the sake of my self image and self esteem, can you give me an approximate idea of how many of your stockpiled boosters you are sacrificing per episode on top of the space ship? My average is 10 bombs, 6 hammers, 4 hand switches, 4 fish and 2 lucky candies.
Dee
MB did your cascading ever stop or did you have to give up like me?
Ok, I think level 2699 is one of those levels the developers made impossible to win (unless you have like 5-6 hand swaps) so it buys them time to create and release new levels. Anyone have any luck or are you experiencing the same thing?
I am pretty sure I'll wake up one day and they will have changed one tiny detail that makes the level more possible to win.
So, there is no more Ms. Cookie's (Lynn Kirby) site for the level by level? I miss it so much...
I'm MASSIVELY struggling with 2682 but apparently I'm the only one??? Um??
Dee, you'll feel a lot better after you read this. This week I used: 31 hammers, 16 switch hands, 2 check marks, 12 color bombs, 7 fish and 2 stripe/wraps. I waste a lot because I try to get through fast and on 1 life. I almost always add a color bomb because it cuts down the number of resets to get a good start. On jelly levels I usually throw in a fish.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
The key to 2682 is to get rid of the two green wrapped candies and the blue candies in the grid before you detonate the two colourbombs. If you use the colourbombs before the bottom of the board is opened they won't give you many points. I have passed it on king.com without boosters, but it'a a lot easier on the windows app, where Morts magic helmet will give you 3 extra moves, a stripe, a wrap and a colourbomb. Good luck.
Thanks for the information MB.
Now that I know that you use crack military SWATting methods, not to mention your privileged access to an unending supply of missiles, I can relax in my inferior civilian capacity.
Dee
So, back to 2000 I went this morning after my game seemed to do an update on my Chromebook. It took forever to load the game and when it did I didn't have the golden balls. Haha I thought I will try 2000 again and I was able to get the boosters twice. I reloaded right away and I got one more then it was done. I tried to restart and shut down etc but I couldn't make it work again So, folks if your game has updated 2000 will work again. I haven't tried it on the Windows app yet. Oh and when I came back in again after reloading etc... the golden balls were back. OC
Level 2670 wont let me play. It opens and then it closes.
Was just watching videos to see what to expect tomorrow. 2698 gives you 28 moves to make a million points with bombs. THEN the trail ends. No videos or tip pages for anything above 2698... weird.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
correct that. Only 2699 and 2700 are missing. It picks back up at 2701.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
Good luck on 2699 everyone.
Unless you have at least 5 hand switches I don't see how it is possible, unfortunately I don't have any!
Re: Level 2692. Is there a problem with this level? I clear all the jelly as well as both pies yet the cherry falls down in the upper left hand corner and sits there on the 2nd row because there is no way to move it down to the lower right corner to fall off the board.
I checked the videos on YouTube and they don't have this problem. However, they are all on the new HTML5 version which I don't have yet. I wish King would get their ducks in a row and make everyone on the new version. It's been over 4 months already since they started to roll out the new version.
I now know why there are no videos for 2699 and 2700. I think that both were designed to be impossible without excessive booster use. 2699 is the level from hell. You have to use either 5 or 6 hands. If you start by putting the two color bombs together, it takes 6 otherwise it takes 5 and a mess of luck. 2700 might be possible, with just the space dash stuff, but I doubt it. 33 jelly in 28 moves. 30 of them are covered by two layer blockers. Three are on a conveyor. Plus there is chocolate. I have to compile my notes to see what the booster toll was. I made it through on one life, but...
Good Luck All!
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
it will be a long haul for me they took away the magic dash:( Did this happen to anyone else? oc
OC: I still have my space dash. It showed up Monday morning as usual. They may be phasing the stuff out ????
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
Nevermind it came back. OC
On my old phone and the windows app space dash is there monday-friday, but on my newest phone (Huawei p8 lite) it comes and goes. The hour countdown is the same, but often it disappears. It went missing late last night and hasn't returned.
Re 2692. I didn't have any problems with the cherry on the windows app. Just tried playing it on king.com, where it seems there's a problem.
OK here's what's happening with the space dash. If I close out so as to save it cos I can't finish the level it goes away when I reload. If I clear out of everything and go back to facebook again and start over it comes back fully loaded. What a PITA. You have to do it twice instead of just going out and coming back. OC
2692 will have to get fixed before I can move on.
I contacted King.com about 2692. The first reply was that I might watch a "YouTube tutorial or two" when a level is tricky. So I replied to the email with a link to a YouTube tutorial where someone pointed out the bug. Here is the link. https://youtu.be/GZTY_3nu5TA
Done but it was a tricky week. I used a spaceship on 2692 and didn't have any trouble. I had tons of trouble on the last one because the fruit kept dropping to the bottom and then rotated and I couldn't get it back on the belt. Out of hand switches and hammers now. I don't play much in the week so next week will be interesting since hand switches and hammers are not readily gifted to me... usually have to wait till the end of the sugar pops to get them. Also had trouble on a few others. Not a one life week for me and many boosters used. Some fun levels too. OC
Has anyone passed 2700 yet? Three times now I have gotten to a point where the cascades just keep going on and on and never stop. I had to end the game. I assume it is a bug but I have wasted boosters. Can I contact anyone to get compensated for them or am I just SOL.
No problems with either 2692 or 2700. Playing through Facebook on a PC. I seem to be using up everyone's share of good luck. Maybe I should hide for a week or two.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
This week was pretty gruesome.
Thanks MB for warning about hand switch marathon on level 2699.
Like Ditte and OC, my space ship too was unreliable. It came - and it went - without any prior warning or logic. As a result, I was left high and dry on the dreaded/ful level 2700 for a couple of hours, during which I too experienced the endless cascade bug. I was thoroughly cursing the King company whilst waiting for a “lucky board”, just like in the bad old days. When the space ship rematerialized from some unknown 5th dimension, it was relatively easy, with the usual supplement of boosters.
Dee
The windows app has been changed. I'm finding it very difficult to control the "scrolling" when looking for specific level (playing for sugardrops). Very annoying.
So, for me, the space dash would disappear if x ed out of the game because I would lose the golden ship. When I came back into the game the dash would be gone. However, I discovered that if I went out a second time completely - close all open sites - the dash would be back again. So, no longer able to click out and come back after the first time, you gotta do it twice and it will magically be back again and still a golden one. It was a tricky week even with the dash because of the high demand for switches and hammers. Hope this helps with space dash disappearance so that you don't have to use too many precious boosters. OC
I haven't had problems with the space dash disappearing on the windows app, just on one of my phones where it doesn't matter much since I never play new levels there.
Dee: I almost got 2699 without boosters today. It takes an unreal amount of luck to get enough opportunities to move the fruit from column to column all the way across, but officially it should be possible. I retract my earlier statement of impossibility.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
2699 is awful. Even if you can move a couple of rows, the hole gets you and moves you back.
MB - what do you mean almost got 2699? Those sneaky programmers usually let you get just close enough and frustrated enough so that you become reckless about spending boosters and gold bars.
Still waiting for the booster toll you promised to calculate.
Dee
I don't know what has gone wrong with Candy Crush on the PC. Back in April I was locked out because a screen "Report a Player" popped up and it was two weeks before it went away. Once I was back in all my 600+ boosters had gone. This happened a few more times but only briefly and each time my boosters went missing.
About six weeks ago the daily spin wheel disappeared and I don't get the Magic Helmet or Space Dash. I could put up with that but now my boosters keep disappearing then coming back. The graphics have been changed from the small round symbol to a larger flat 'button'. If it's the old style I have no boosters but they came back with the flat one until yesterday when I had no boosters with the flat one. Every time I close the app then reopen it all the boosters have gone. The app randomly closes on its own and comes back with 'We have missed you' and all my boosters have either gone or come back.
Anybody else having this problem?
Dee: After the smoke cleared, I used 21 hammers, 15 switch hands, 13 color bombs, 6 stripe/wraps, 9 fish, and 1 check mark. I have since done 11 of the levels without boosters and hope to improve on that over the weekend. I don't plan on getting either 2699 or 2700. The stockpile is now back up to higher than it was before Wednesday morning. 10,756 boosters left as of this moment.

This morning I discovered a way to get 2000 level to repeat. I have now done it six times. I play on a Chromebook with Google/Facebook. I found that if I clear my browsing history and then shut down my computer and reload Facebook and then Candy Crush that I can play level 2000. It works for about two turns then I have to repeat the process. It is a bit long drawn out because the game takes a very long time to load the first time. However, it is a much easier way for me to load up on hand switches and hammers. Thought I'd share hopeful that it will help others. I also did this the other day on the Windows App by deleting the App and then reloading it. It took everything away for a few moments then gave back the boosters but I was able to play 2000 again. It didn't seem to work as well on the Window's App because it is a bit time consuming. But on the Chromebook I could do this daily and have a number of boosters in about 30 minutes. Onward Crushers.... go see if this works for you -- oh yes and I found that if I reloaded the game with the little reload arrow thingie and not click on anything when they give you the boosters that you can go do it again and again without deleting your history.OC
Not sure I dare delete the Windows App. I'm afraid the boosters will be lost like they are if you delete the phoneapp.
It didn't delete the boosters on my Facebook account and the Windows App ones came back but it was a bit scarey:) OC
One final note about 2000 I can actually access it whenever I want now. All you have to do is clear the browsing data and it will let you do two or three then you have to do it again. I have enough boosters for next week so I am not going to keep doing this. Nice to know I don't have to keep doing the sugar pops. I only want hammers and hand switches. It didn't keep loading me with color bombs but I don't need those anyway. Good luck all and onward crushing we go. OC
Maybe that's a hint as to why 2000 will repeat for me every time I have the browser reload CC. I have my Firefox set to not keep history... might have some effect on things.
MB
lostmessages@charter.net
I've tried deleting browserhistory from both Chrome and Explorer. Doesn't work when playing on king.com. I'm not on Facebook. Still haven't dared deleting the windows app. Maybe I'll stop playing for sugardrops for a while and then try deleting it, when I don't have so many boosters to lose.
I assume you have to log back in after you've reinstalled the app? I've had problems with logging in before.
I dont have sugardrops in level 2000 on my PC??
It's not a sugardroplevel, but you get boosters for passing it. Some can make it work again and again, others only once on each device.
Well, not on PC:)
The lessons learned from history
Have helped to solved the mystery
We'll now increase our hoards
From 2K’s rich rewards
OC and MB – you have cracked it!!! Deleted browsing history from Firefox and set it not to keep history. I never use it in any case. Bless you both. OC for not giving up, and MB for discovering it in the first place and sharing it with us.
Thanks a million. No longer need to repeat boring levels for sugar drops.
Dee
Lucky you. I can't get it to work on king.com. I haven't tried with firefox though, but there's no space dash there anyway, so even if I did get it to work, it wouldn't be of much use. And I'm not going to join Facebook just to play CC.
Ditte, there IS a space dash on Facebook on firefox.
I myself joined Facebook a couple of years ago for the sole purpose of playing CC, after losing all my boosters (twice) on my mobile phone. I am not friends with anyone there, nor do I share any personal information.
Dee
Dee, such a cute poem. Now I'm off to learn how to set my computer to not keep history. MB;} Such fun LOL OC
Progress! Equal access to 2000. Maybe it's not just an impossible dream!

lostmessages@charter.net
I play on iPhone and PC (Chrome) and the differences between the bonuses are apparent particularly on how PC is not as generous. I have never purchased bonuses.
PC does not give me a bonus wheel. Oddly, last week it did appear one day (bottom left corner) but has since disappeared.
PC does not give me the flying saucer bonus or any other special bonuses such as Golden Path, collect colours for bonuses, Light the Sky which I get on iPhone.
PC does appear to be more user friendly often with a version of a level that has higher moves or games that seem to fall 'just right'; a lucky board.
I have tried level 2000 on iPhone and PC but this does not give me any special bonuses.
On iPhone the levels that will allow me to collect candies for bonuses (I don't know the correct term but on iPhone it's the levels that in my words 'bounce' as you view the path and with a candy jar bottom left) appear to change day by day. Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. My iPhone is always far behind the PC so I spend random time away from PC collecting bonus candies on iPhone.
Best tip I got on here (thanks all who suggested it, might have been MB) is to return to level 1 when the UFO booster is on (for me only on iPhone) and play 4 times to get a guaranteed fully loaded UFO booster.
However, I have noticed that when returning to level 1 or collecting bonus candies in the jar from previous levels that CC will sometimes blank those levels off from my gameboard so I can't go back to them. It's as if it knows what I'm doing and won't allow me to carry on.
Islands - on iPhone I have some bonus plan where I am moved up or down island levels. I have no idea how this works. Except that as I cannot progress on in levels on my iPhone due to it being behind it means I cannot win whatever it wants and so drop down islands.
The new layout of the 'path' of levels on iPhone is awful. It's angled away from you and I can no longer expand into the view or out of the view i.e. to make the icons bigger or smaller. Sometimes the level marker is awkwardly positioned near the bonus icons on the top left making it hard to click onto.
OK rant over. thanks for reading if you took the time and thanks to you all for the tips I've got from you all. Happy crushing.
I am currently compulsively repeating level 2000 and delighting in the ease and speed with which the boosters are piling up.
The one (minor) drawback is that unlike with the sugar drops, no gold bars are included.
OC - you mentioned that you are a teacher. What is your subject? Maths? Logic? Philosopy?
I particularly enjoyed following your thought processes as, step by empirical step, you pieced together the solution to the conundrum that was puzzling us all.
This is what the internet is all about. Everybody sharing knowledge freely.
Dee
I do have the bonus wheel on PC/king.com, but not on the windows app.
I don't think the sugardroplevels on your phone change day by day. You can play them once and when you've collected 180 sugardrops you have to wait at least 8 hours before you can collect again. Then you can start over and play for instance level 1476 once. When you've collected 180 through level 1476 and others, you again wait 8 hours and 1476 can be played again.
Sometimes the levels are different, sometimes the PC version is easier, sometimes the phone.
Sometimes an episode goes blank, when you've played some of the levels as you descripe. It also happens on the windows app. It usually comes back if I close down the app and open it again.
The purpose of the islands is to collect striped candies. If you collect enough you get boosters and move to another island. You can do this on all levels so should be able to move on on your phone too.
Yes the new layout on phone and windows app is awfull, but I do recommend you play on the windows app, if you have windows 10 (or 8) on your PC. It has the same features/opportunities to collect bonuses as the phone version, and has the space dash and magic helmets, but is not two weeks behind. And everything moves a lot faster than on phone or king.com.
The sugar crush after completing 2703 went on for almost an hour and a half and I thought I would have to shut down the app and start again when it eventually came to a stop on 92 million points. 2693 was the same with it ending on 77 million points. So frustrating to have to wait so long.
Dee, I teach 2nd grade. School starts next week so my time with CC will be a bit limited:) OC
