Ridiculously hard episode race

collegeamoco

Episode race, 14285- 14300 is absolutely ridiculous. The last few had been good, challenging, some impossible without extra moves, but I had actually enjoyed playing again. BUT THIS ONE! There's only a couple that aren't "labeled" hard, ect, but are more like the nightmarishly hard ones. And most are hard, super hard, or nightmarishly hard. Why?! Why can't it just be enjoyable again?

I've passed only 3 levels this week! With no gold, this episode race will take a month!

Still stuck on 14292 3 days, every level is nightmarishly hard!

You have my sympathy, but I have no advice to offer, sadly. I can't see how I ever beat that level myself. I guess I used a party booster, or two, or UFOs. I can't see how you can do this one through normal play, even with starting boosters. Too many blockers.

All the videos did just what you said, used those "high power" boosters. Sadly, I have none. Oh well.

Well I passed it, things just sort of fell in place, lots of candy balls! But I'm not too excited. There's another nightmarishly hard level following it. Almost every single level is like that in this race. So, I've passed 4 all week. Woopie.🙄

I'm really getting tired of it taking 3-4 days or more to get past a level.....

Oh my gosh! @collegeamoco !

Right now I'm stuck on 14281. I figure it'll let me pass eventually. Past stupid Nightmare, Super, Hard, and even so called "easy" levels recently are just as bad! These are what they show at the top of the screen on a banner when you pass, "tough". It's gotten way out of hand.

I know King isn't going to help us or change things. It is frustrating. SO looking forward to the next Episode! LOL

I do want to mention, the only videos I trust are by Tien. He/she is the only one that plays the same number of moves I have. The others ie Jonah and K, have at least 10 more moves they posted months ago. Even though Tien has to use those powerful boosters to win the level, the video gives me an idea what not to worry about at the beginning. It's helped a bit. Just my thought.

Have a good evening!

I'm still stuck on 14293, was hoping, as they've done many times, they'd add a few moves or something! So annoying, especially after last week I'd won a grand total of 4 levels all week, and 0 this week. The week before I reached this race I had passed 84 in a week! This is frustrating and annoying 😤

Feeling your pain!

Finally got through these last few levels after using a whole lot of hammers and switch boosters! I'm now going into the episode you're in. I'm coming for ya! LOL

Seriously, I'm not looking forward to it. Haven't won a weekly in, I don't know how long. Now, I checked it out and I have 4 players not on my friends list and their banners say 2000, 4000. How fair is that?

Oh well, I don't expect to win it, just as I don't expect to even place on Sam's. Used to win that constantly.

I'm now trying not to stress. Hope you'll try as well.

It's frustrating because we've put in time and effort for this stupid game. Things have changed so much.

Have a good night, @collegeamoco !

I won't mind at all if you pass this level before me! Go for it and then tell me how you did it!🤣
