It seems impossible to score 55000 points in a minute. I have got life for several hours and I kept on trying to complete this level but in vain. YouTube video shows +5 time candies dropping other than those on the board. But that is not the case for me. I had similar problems for levels 1694(time has now been increased for this level) and 1753. I somehow cleared those levels when luckily many color bombs showered on the board. But in 1874 the bombs are giving hardly 4000 points and hence special candies are not helping in scoring points. Please let me know if you have any suggestions. I am just a few episodes away from that coveted topmost one and don't want to quit.
