Build a Bot boosters available for previous levels

pvalla2

My new levels that became available today no longer lets me collect sugar drops.   Has any one else noticed this change?

Please change the build a bot back. I'm addicted to the game, but will have to find a new game. This way to way too frustrating.

Do you know when Sugar Drops are not available to collect before you start a game? If you don't I'll tell you. I'll also tell you how to enable it.

I thought I did. I know they are not available to collect while you in the 8 hour countdown.  I was able to collect sugar drops at the lower levels which are identified as ‘c’ levels. The difference seems to be that I can’t collect when playing the new levels. I’m currently at level 4530 which became available Wednesday morning when new levels become available for players. As of last week the new levels let me collect sugar drops at each new level. Thereafter a new level may or may not turn to not a ‘c’ level. This week they do not. I collect sugar drops twice each day to build up boosters each week, so I’m pretty familiar with how it works. Do you know of another way to collect sugar drops.  Thanks

Am now able to collect sugar drops on new levels. Must have been a timing issue although I was able to collect the drops at the lower level.

@pvalla2 I think it may have been a random glitch. I had that happen to me once where there was no opportunity for sugar drops when I played a new episode. Luckily I have not run into that since (I’m on 4540). 😊

@bearwithme I’ve had that happen to me before too and episodes where new levels repeat on sugar drops.

Where would we be without those precious sugar drop boosters?!😅

I heard a saying the other day and I thought I'd share. "The wolf climbing the hill is always hungrier than the wolf at the top." When you know you can go back to level one to rebuild your build-a- bot and get all those boosters, you're more likely to be careless in your game and make some sloppy moves. When you have no way to get your booster bot but to beat the level you're on, you're going to think more about the moves you're making because you don't want to lose the booster bot progress you already have.

I don't believe that's true, at least not for me. Before the current booster bot, if you didn't pass one level, all the boosters in the bot were lost, so you had to go back and play enough levels to regain a full bot, most importantly the two chocolate balls.
