No longer able to exit an unstarted board without losing lives - Information and feedback

Deryck

@Pounawea I have a little more insight on this topic since the "fix' most have indicated in their screenshots had already affected my one game account since the very beginning. When I say the very beginning, that'd be since earlier this spring when I downloaded the Win10 app version.

To be honest, I have this community to thank for letting me know this "issue" had been in the game; I learned about it here. But when I tried it out, it indeed worked in the one account. 👍 The other account, however, gave the same display message others have posted in screenshots now. 👎

I can say not having the ability to shuffle the board without losing a life is not that big a deal, but my gameplay doesn't reflect it. I played far more frequently on the account that had the ability, getting to level 1769 and collecting the most Sugar Stars there.

The other account, which never had the ability, I play less - only at L1704 - and have few Sugar Stars collected there.

So as others here have confirmed, I too was more engaged with the game when having the ability to shuffle the board.

Now that I've lost the ability altogether, it remains to be seen how engaged I am with CCS..

Like many who have commented, after completing 5559 levels, and buying various rewards, I’m done with playing Candy Crush. So long Candy Crush.

This change is now in effect, at least for me. I noticed some of you already had
this last night. I guess it depends on the Time Zone. 

Here is the ScreenShot of my Game when I tried to reset:

It affects me and now I'm stuck on my level forever...

CCS is actually the only game I play on my mobile. Level 3500 passed and a solid amount of money spent in the last few years.

Like many others on this thread, I only registered to say how this „fix“ bothers me and I will stop playing, too.

I‘m sad. But the only reason I see behind this, is to collect more money from the players in making the game harder.

When starting CCS there is a subline that says „Relax... and play Candy“ (at least in German). Hard to do these days. Goodbye CCS, it was fun while it lasted!

I agree. It sucks. This game becomes less and less fun. Why ruin what was once good. My gold bars disappeared suddenly and no one could tell me why.

They don't care. They want more money.
