Candy Crush Saga level 2279

Peter_Tornaros

Another episode ruined by an idiotic timed level. Back to total boredom while I wait for the lucky board !!

Hello Peter. Yes, another idiotic Level. It's different than previous ones as that when you run out of time, the +5 Candies do not explode. I have just managed to pass it using a Speckled Bomb Booster at the start & not using it until time nearly run out. May good luck smile on your next Board. Cheers.

Passed after 10 tries without boosters.  Like playing a slot machine. 

Finished entire episode in one day.

Good Luck.

Good day Peter and Bruce, I wasted no time on this one.  Started off with the color bomb, used 10gold bars for extra time and moved on.  I've concluded there will always be "timed" levels just to keep this board active.  Also, I see where there are "selected" players who have moved on to new levels beyond 2303.  I guess they are the elite players that test these levels before we are able to play.  If they can pass w/no complaints it must be a go.....lol

Hello Debbie, The "selected" players are probably those that spend lots of money !! I eventually got a lucky board on 2279, when time ran out, a speckled bomb appeared, exploded and produced more scoring combos, including another speckled bomb. I just sat back and watched as the score passed the 2 star level !! I think Level 2283, a reach the score level, is also totally boring and another that is a wait for the lucky board.

Yes Peter, 2283 was difficult, time bombs drop as you hit the licorice swirls.  Need to get lucky with color bomb on this one.  I thought 2285 was much worse.

I finally got 2283 by hand switching to create colour bombs and then combining with a colour the same as a time bomb. 2 of these got me there. Amazingly I got 2285 on the second go, although I used 2 hammers and a hand switch. I did this as you warned me it was hard, so seeing I was close, I used the boosters. Off on the sugar trail now.
