Wow 863 is kicking my butt.  Would like to reach out for any suggestions to help get through!  Thanks

Hey Mamiejo, you're doing great to be in the 800's! For this level the simplest approach is to destroy the icings on the right first, before you unlock the sugar chest on the left with the third key. Generate as many horizontal striped candies as possible and use them strategically on the multi-layer icing. Wrapped/striped combos are really useful here, just make sure you maximize their usefulness by having them take out as much icing as possible.

Check out this video of a player passing the level, it should give you some good pointers!

Let us know how you get on, and keep trying!

Thank you Crusher18 for the video.  It was very informative.  However, I am still stuck!

Mamiejo

Still stuck on this one.  I'm guessing this must be one that needs a "lucky" board to pass.  Very frustrating.

Mamiejo

Really not liking this level.  Getting very frustrated with it.  May be time to throw in the towel

Mamiejo

More than 3 weeks on it now.  I'm done.  Beyond frustrating...

Mamiejo

Another week down and still nothing...not even close.  Well beyond the threshold of frustration. Apparently no lucky screen to be had.   Absolutely done this time.    What's up with setting up for failure???

Hey Mamiejo, I hope you haven't given up. When I am stuck on a level I take a break for a few days then come back again. Your mind will be fresh and who knows you might end up with your lucky board! Don't give up, I am sure that you can do it.
