New Feature: Ability to review entire board when asked whether to continue

Several months ago, I brought up the issue of players not being able to see the entire board whenever they reach a failure state and are presented with a continue prompt. But at long, long last, I've discovered that at least some players will be getting this much-requested feature, according to this screenshot below:

The ability to view the entire board when asked whether or not to continue will be invaluable to Crushers tired of wasting gold bars trying to continue on a board when the extra moves provided won't be enough to finish the level, as they can now get a clearer look at the big picture to best determine whether buying one continue will be enough to finish the level. Thank you, developers. We are looking forward to seeing you add in more and more requested features to reduce candy-crushing headaches!

    The request to see the board before spending your gold on extra moves was an idea submitted many times by many people @snakegore999

    One of the ideas managed to achieve 55 votes

    It is nice to see community ideas turned into game features, but I always think it strange when ideas like this with less than a hundred votes get implemented when there are ideas with hundreds of votes.

    I have noticed this feature in a new game I'd started this week and like you was delighted! I just hope EVERY player will get this feature and it won't turn into another test run. There is nothing to test with this feature: Every player can profit from it, no one can be annoyed by it, it is just 100% useful. So please King no tests, just give it to every player NOW!

    I'm saying this because neither of my two games have this feature yet... 🙁


  • So this is what you would see on your screen if you failed a level, and need to decide whether to spend gold to play on:

    Level 26 is the first level to hold me up this week:

    So by pressing on the "view board" in the first screenshot I can see the entire board and see I am nowhere near finishing.(again! I wonder how many times I will have to play this level until I get my lucky board this week.... surely they don't let a new player quit at level 26!)

    Surely this feature can only be helpful to anybody, especially if you are at risk of losing a win streak and need to know how much gold you are likely to need to sacrifice to keep it. Come on King, roll this out to every player!

    Who here has this and who is still waiting?

    Well I had that feature appearing in my game a while ago and thought it was very useful indeed! But it did not stay long (maybe 3-4 weeks). Did someone say tests?🙄

Hey! Would you like to give us your opinion?
