Hi @lillyb51 I can see your problem. I am also a long standing player and I have noticed how the game has changed in the past six months or so. The old strategies we used a year ago don't work any more. What it boils down to is that King have taken away the "lucky boards" that used to eventually come to let us pass a level if we kept going long enough patiently. My own strategy now is to keep just enough gold and a lollipop hammer and switch in store for these moments when the game just won't let us pass a level. Then if it leaves you just one jelly short (and it often does!) I use my hammer, or if I never get close (like on a level where those damn keys don't drop until near the end, like yours) I wait until the game offers me so many extra moves that I know I can easily pass with 10 gold bars. That is how I have adjusted my strategy.

Good luck!
