Hello @Cleopoddy Hearty Welcome to the Candy Friends section of our friendly King Community
I am sorry to hear that! But, did you make sure that you have "logged into the game"? If you have not logged in, then also, we are thrown to level # 1. It happened few times for me in last couple of days! Also, make sure that you "Accept" the terms if you see that pop-up window! If you do not, then too we are thrown to level # 1!!
