Hi @Elsa,
what applies to all games: you need a lot of patience and you have to love the game.
Go into your game every day and get the daily reward. Keep in mind whether the game gives you a daily reward to collect or if you get time boosters. Time boosters usually run for 2 hours, so you should use them in time.
Check the game to see if there are mini-games/in-game games or special events that give you free boosters. Example: the box of chocolates in Candy Crush, Mr. Toffee in soda or bake a cake, various in Jelly, quests in Friends. Many of the mini-games can be played well with old levels. Everyone has their favorite levels. It's time-consuming and you have to scroll in part, but usually it's worth the effort.
If you have a team feature in the game, you often get free boosters and lives from your team (custom at F5, Soda Team, Friends, Random Team in Jelly).
Study the board carefully to find the best combination. Use time booster efficiently (general note, I'll differentiate it later). If the game makes suggestions to you, use them only if you can't find a better combination.
Use collected boosters only if they allow you to win the level. The same applies to gold bars. Only use some if you have a chance to win the level. If you can't do it with 5 additional moves, it can be quite expensive.
When you play on mobile, you often have the option to watch ads to get free boosters or extra moves.
These were my tips in general. I'm going to put together something for each game now. See you later.

Jelly is I think the easiest game to move forward. I'm at the end of the map and open the game daily, even though I can't play new levels (because I only get some on Wednesdays).
Use the time boosters in such a way that you benefit the most from it. On day 7 you get 2 time boosters for 2 hours each (color bomb and fish). If you have saved color candies, you can choose one to get a "Rainbow Jenny".
Jelly is the only game in which you can leave the level without losing a life if the constellation of boosters on the board is unfavorable for you. Study the board and decide whether to play it or leave it without making a move. Only then will you not lose a life.
If you have the opportunity to play around midnight, you also have two time boosters available. I often do it from day 2 to day 3. I receive the color bomb shortly before midnight 2 hours and shortly after midnight 2 hours the color candy. Both side by side make up the "Rainbow Jenny", which largely exposes your board. If you have fishing nets, you can only dissolve them with fish. No booster helps there. So you have to make as many fish as possible. All other blockers can be eliminated with good combinations of special sweets.
In Jelly I got a lot of boosters through the mini-game "Fishing with Friends". It's a random team and most of the time I'm the only one playing. It's time-consuming, you can play it on old levels. My preferred level is level 49. Within 1.5 hours I have collected all the fish and get 2 lollipops each (striped, wrapped and the coveted color bomb lollipop 2 times). It's time-consuming, for me. But it's worth it. It is only available on mobile, not on the PC/laptop. That's why I only play Jelly on mobile.
Also, the "Crack the Queen's Safe" feature is only available on mobile and you're assigned to a random team. In the team you have to play 20 levels within 5 days. If you have good teammates, you get 1 piece of each lollipop variety to collect.
On the map you have (also only in the mobile version) treasure chests, in which you get different boosters on time or to collect and each chest 2 hours of free life.
That's all I can think of for Jelly.

In Soda, you can make a good combination with the time boosters "Color Bomb" and "Color Candy" to clear the board. If you don't find this combination on the board, you can't leave it without losing a life (exception, you have endless lives).
Depending on the game mode, you'll have to see what the task is. In your example, the ultrasonic lollipop would have helped to finish the level. You can get it from the team function (custom team) with the tasks "Bake a cake". However, the event has become rare, so you have to decide if it is worth using this valuable lollipop.
The ultrasonic lollipop is only available in soda. He often helps me with the heavy/super heavy levels when they contain multiple images.
In the game mode "open the bottles", the dispensers for bottles are often somewhat hidden or not very easy to reach. I think I fail more often in this mode than in other tasks. The ultrasonic lollipop is a waste in this mode. If I use boosters, then usually only the normal lollipop (if I have any).
You can also get help from your custom team. There are time boosters when reaching the chests, on the third chest sometimes also good boosters to collect. You can also ask your team for free living.
In soda, I play Mr. Toffee every day. There are not always useful boosters there. But if I don't play it, I don't get anything.
By the way, it is important to go online in Soda every day in the game, so that the team gets at least the login point from you to reach the chests faster. Even if you don't manage a level, your login (online) counts one point a day.
In Soda, there are sometimes mini-games where you can win good boosters and gold bars. You can complete these mini-games well on old levels. Even if they have a duration of 3 weeks, I am usually finished after 2 days.
Use the won items and gold bars wisely. When it acts impulsively, it is usually a waste.
-
In Friends I can (I think) give you the fewest tips.
This game always has only parts of something (energy or 5 points for a lollipop) in the login bonus.
There is only one feature where you get a lot of lollipops. It's the feature in your custom team when Dachs delivery service is open.
For each level, patience also applies here. Probably more than in other games. Choose your companion who you think will help you the most. The suggestion from the game is not always helpful. You can probably only do it from experience. I usually use the red rabbit for "Free the animals" and "Fill the empty hearts" "Fill the empty hearts" but can also work well with Tiffi or Odus.
For octopus levels, Olivia and Misty can be helpful. But they aren't always. I've also finished it with Rachel, although I use this character the least. I try it until it works. Yes, patience, time and consideration also apply here.
I usually create cookie levels with the Nutcracker or Badger when these companions are offered. I also like to use them for jam levels (but also odus).
If I have the jelly queen to choose from, I prefer it for octopuses and jam.
Try to complete the quests daily so that your shares for lollipops are collected faster. You can find out how best to complete the quests on the Friends page.
In Friends, there are also side games from time to time where you can win items, energy or gold bars. Pay attention to the announcements on the Friends page and watch the comments. Not all events bring you more benefits than you have in investments. For some, I gave up. I would have had to buy something there to get little reward. I don't do that in principle.

Hi guys, as mentioned yesterday I wanted to respond to all that posted here so here goes...........
@bearwithme, that’s a good tip to look at the objective and I know that I kind of look but want to start the level immediately so I don’t look at long enough. I know that when I see that a coconut wheel is a booster for a specific level it’s going to be an ingredients level. That’s a good suggestion. Thanks!
@shafer223, so when you want to clear the top first does it make a difference with the game mode? Do you look to see where the blockers are? I don’t but just responding to you now I’m wondering if that needs to be considered too.
@lelensp, so when the level opens your brain immediately looks to see if you can create a colored bomb or another special candy before you think about matching 3? I never thought of doing that. Maybe that will help me improve my game play. You also have a good tip to clear the bottom to create chain reactions. That is a very good tip! Thanks!
@aautz1, I have been playing Farm Heroes Saga but gave up on it last week because I can’t even get close to clearing the levels. I haven’t even made it to level 1000 yet. How about you offer me more tips for this game because it might encourage me to play the game again with your tips. Thanks!
@Kate3A, doesn’t the game offer move hints if you don’t make a move quickly enough? I thought all games did it and sometimes I do use the hints to help me make a move. But maybe I need to try your tip to look for special candies first and also for ways to create a colorbomb. Now I have a question for you – have you completed the Olivia’s Encave event in Friends yet? I bet you have! I am stuck on level 7. So now that you wrote all that you did I am going to try your tips to see if I can clear the rest. Thanks!

@Magic_Mixer, thank you so much for taking the time to write all that you did here. I need to retrain my brain to look for possible moves when I have very few moves left. Because I am an impulsive player I never look at the number of moves left and am quite surprised when I see a next move but then get the pop up saying that I have no moves left. I wonder how long it would take me to retrain that in my brain. All of your tips are fantastic! Look for an easier way to clear a blocker …… don’t clear special candies immediately. When you wrote #4 that I kind of do but most of the time I just move the ingredient and then it does get stuck. Wow these tips are great! I never thought of trying to create a reshuffle!! I notice that so many times in Friends I get 3 or 4 reshuffles when I’ve hardly even used many moves. I thought it was just bad luck for me but now I wonder if other players are not getting as many or doing what you suggest about creating a reshuffle. Thanks!
@Alienscar, and that’s my problem because most of the time I tend to use the color bomb but how to use it might also be my problem. So if I have 2 or 3 different color candies around the color bomb I usually look at the board to see how many of those colors need to be cleared and I choose the color with the most. Maybe I’m doing that wrong. I will try your tip of not using it when it pops up. Thanks!
@Nenikapaki, I don’t know how to study the tiles and that’s my problem. Your brain might be wired to see the moves that can be made and then create the steps to get those special candies. I never thought of studying them and then creating steps on how to do it. Thanks!

@Adav, I’m not sure what game you are mentioning this tip but when I play CC Saga I use the hand switch very often. So if I see a color bomb and another that might be 2 or 3 spaces away I use the hand switch so that they are next to each other and then they clear out the board. I don’t know if that’s right or wrong but that’s how my brain is wired to see how far apart the special candies are and then use the hand to bring them together. Is your brain wired where you see where the special candies are and then you think of steps to make so that they align next to each other? Thanks!
@Moh1977, how does one become patient? Assuming that you must be patient can you please give me some tips on how to become patient? Thanks!
@Rock2233, I remember way back when we had an idea posted about the “Flying Fish”. I think it was in CC Soda Saga and it got so many votes because the fish swam wherever they wanted to go. Were you here at that time? So what you are suggesting is that I don’t use the fish when there are obstacles, meaning blockers? So if there is a blocker the fish don’t swim to unlock it? Maybe that’s what the flying fish idea meant. I just thought of something I wonder if we should create an idea for the studio to offer fish hints along with their match 3 hints. Thanks!
@lelensp, I love second and third tips so keep them coming! I never thought that the hints might prevent me from finishing the level. I usually ignore the hints because I am too busy looking to match 3 candies or trying to match up special candies. Good point! Thanks!

@DieOmimi, I am still trying to figure out how to be patient so if you have any ideas please pass them along. I used to love all King games but as I moved up into some of the higher levels and they became more difficult my love level dropped. I do go into all my games daily to get the rewards and I’m going to post something that might change in CC Soda Saga if the Kingsters or CMs read what I have to say next. I can get 4 daily rewards from Soda by playing on Windows 10, iPhone and 2 iPads. Of course, the rewards don’t transfer from mobile to mobile since they remain in that mobile but the timed boosters do transfer so I will go through all 4 games and then play in the last one. For example, if I get a half hour of the color bomb or coloring candy, on the last game that I open I will see those timed rewards accumulated. It works well for me if I get the color bomb in one and the coloring candy in another because then both will show up in the game. Now that I wrote this I’ll probably jinx myself and won’t see it happening today. Also when it comes to the gumball I can get 4 rewards from the 4 desktop and mobile devices.
I stopped playing Mr. Toffee in Soda because I must be on a testing. I used to be able to choose an area and when me and my team completed diagonally, horizontally, or vertically I’d get the rewards. Now with this test I have to be a part of a row and it’s not like bingo anymore where you just match any area. So I stopped playing it. What I do love in Soda is the custom team. We get the cake event so I don’t have to clear all of them on my own. It’s a combined team effort and we all get the rewards. I am having trouble with the Fantastic Five team in CC Saga. If my team completes it and I open to get the rewards on mobile I never get them. I’ve mentioned it to @CrazyCatLad but maybe not too many are having this problem. If I open it on Windows 10 I can get the rewards. Last night the event was full on mobile but I didn’t want to open it. I haven’t opened the game yet today so I don’t know if it expired or if I can still collect it.
When you say to use the collected boosters only if I can win the level, are you referring to the special candies that get created during the game? Are those the ones that you are telling me not to use immediately?

@DieOmimi now I’ll talk to you about Jelly. How did you ever make it to the end? I’m only at 1450. What is the highest level? I do open the game daily but I wish that they would change “Elsa” so that day one also offers a reward. I’ve had times that it would go back to day one and I do open it daily so it’s a glitch. It doesn’t always happen though.
I never realized that Jelly allows a player to back out when not making any moves and you don’t lose a life. With this game my patience runs very thin so on the third try I might not even play it to the end because I can see that I won’t win so I just end the level on my own. I never thought of playing the game around midnight to get 2 boosters. Very good tip!
I do get the Rainbow Jenny but I sure do miss Rainbow Road with her outfit changes!
I have used your tip of trying to create the fish with a square match of 4 to open those fishing nets. That’s about the only thing that works well for me in this game.
Thanks for the tip of playing Fishing with Friends. I stopped playing all the events so maybe it’s time to get back to them. How difficult is it to scroll down to level 49, especially from the top? I never heard of Crack the Queen’s Safe so I might not have been included in the testing. I really don’t get the events. I just opened the game on my iPhone and I have the Birthday Bash and Royal Championship. I don’t play the latter and that has to do with my patience. When it first came out I was teamed up with many players who couldn’t decide on their next move so I had to wait for them when I could see some good moves for them. Many times they timed out so I had to wait for the clock to count down. Do you get the Birthday Bash? Is it worthwhile to try it?
I don’t remember seeing treasure chests in the game so could that also be a testing thing? Thanks for posting all of this!
