Basic strategy for playing Dachs Delivery Service
Delivery Service requires Teams of CCFS players to complete 6 Team Tasks. All members of a Team will get a small reward after completing 2 Team Tasks and a larger reward after completing the remain 4 Team Tasks. To maximize your contributions to completing the 6 Team Tasks, you should NOT just press the “Play” button, but…

Do you have recorded data for strategies in CCFS?
I prefer objective data for evaluating how good or bad CCFS game strategies work in practice! One strategy is to backtrack to a multi-screen level with only 4 colors of candies to complete a Daily Quest to match over 1,000 candies of a specific color: To match 1200 Blue Candies, I backtracked to 3-screen Level 4390 and…

Completing Daily Quests for Color Bombs or Coloring Candies
Some Daily Quests require making a number of Color Bombs or Coloring Candies. One strategy for making them involves backtracking to a level that has (1) only 4 candy colors and (2) an open workspace for manipulating the candy patterns. One such level is 4321, which has only cyan, orange, red, and yellow candies and a…

Systematic quirks in the “recommended move” algorithm?
What kinds of systematic quirks do you find in the CCFS algorithm that recommends your next move by highlighting a set of candies to match? My observation is that algorithm seems to work top-down on the playing grid, and it seems to prioritize making a wrapped candy over making a striped candy over making a fish over…

How is the “Sunny Tales” event going for you?
I won the Level 1 and 2 of Sunny Tales on the first try with 6 moves to spare… …but Level 3 today had the octopuses out on the “arms” of the playing grid, and that seemed to make Level 3 more difficult. I failed on the first attempt despite using an ad video for +4 moves, so I re-thought my strategy and decided to shift…

What are the responsibilities of a Dachs Delivery Service team leader??
Since Dachs Delivery Service is inherently a team event, what responsibilities do I, as a team leader, have to the other 19 members of my DDS team? If the team is having trouble with one of the 6 specific Team Tasks, should I take the responsibility for completing that task? This is NOT an idle question because team tasks…

Dachs Delivery Service in CCFS: automatic deletion of team members by the system?
During Dachs Delivery Service from 3/26-4/4, my team of 20 had 3 members who had not progressed in the previous three cycles of DDS. Those 3 members were deleted and replaced with 3 new members. Today (June 24, 2021) i noticed that once again 1 team member who had not progressed during the last three cycles of DDS has been…

What are your strategies for creating Color Bombs and Coloring Candies?
Color Bombs and Coloring Candies are useful to solve some levels of CCFS and necessary for completing some of the Daily Quests, so how do you do that? I used two strategies to create CBs and CCs. The first strategy is to make moves that “add a candy” at the end of a striped candy pattern to make a Color Bomb, or at the end…

Completing Daily Quests for 250 Fish, Striped, or Wrapped Candies
When I get a Daily Quest that requires 250 Fish, Striped, or Wrapped Candies, I look for a multi-screen CCFS Level that offers Tifi (for fish), Odus (for striped candies), or Yeti (for wrapped candies) , respectively. I prefer a 4-candy-color level because it is easier to make a Color Bomb, and with luck you can join a…

Completing a Daily Quest of matching 1,000-1,400 Candies of a specific color
If one of your Daily Quests is just to match a LOT of candies of a certain color (helper not specified), the most efficient way to complete that Daily Quest is to find a previous level which has only 4 colors—including the specified candy color—and which has MULTIPLE SCREENS as I have found that on average FAR more candies…
