Color Bomb Contest - Cheat or Hacked?

I noticed I am doing a Contest and right when the contest started, this person had 11,000+ color bombs. Its a person with no picture and no name. Is this a hack or is someone cheating?

Welcome! 👋

Level 3309 has become more difficult with the change in build a bot. However, this level is indeed the best level to collect color booms. On some games , I collect more than one thousand and I am definitely not hacking the game v

Until a couple of days ago I used level 606 to get, in only three movements, one colour bomb and three extra movements building a boosters robot. After that I played level 3309 to get lots of colour bombs for the specific contest and more boosters. Playing four times this 3309 level i could get the whole boosters robot and I could also continue playing the same level for the colour bomb contest. I obtained many times more than 50.000 colour bombs and I never lost the contest.And that is not cheating.

I have also noticed contests being hacked. How does someone get over 9000 color bombs in less than 12 hours, that is not possible, this is really putting me off playing the game as it is no fair contest against a hacker

Hi @candycrusher80 and @ernstbln, it might not be a hacker because I can also be #1 and you can see by the current challenge print screen below. Players are using specific levels to get that high. I play level 3309 and to get that score I played the level only a couple of times. That level keeps going once you have met the goal and keeps dropping color bombs and striped candies. I think I've seen that level go for a good 15-20 minutes.

That is not to say that it might not be a cheater or hacker, because it can. King looks into cheats and cheat engines but I do not know how much they can do about the individual players using these tools. I do know that in the challenges the reason why the rewards are not given straight away is because they review the accounts where players have cheated so they don't get the rewards.

Since the new update I think today as it looks a bit different, every time I play a level a booster gets taken automatically it checkmarks itself anyone else noticed this?
Cascades could help 🥴
As Mick in the Crush & Tell Episode 5, game design video reminded us, cascades could be helpful, especially if you need to clear blockers. And for cascades to work we need to play from the bottom of the board. This level is classed as hard, not super hard or higher, OK here goes Must admit, I didn't use any starting…
