New deal: timed starting boosters for 9 gold

christinewupp

I have just noticed I am getting this new offer in my inventory now to buy a half hour's worth of starting boosters for 9 gold each. I really like that! I'm a speed player, so this sounds a great deal to me.

I know from experience that I can play an entire episode in half an hour with both win streak and starting boosters, so maybe this will mean I can play to make a gold profit again? I'll try this offer out tomorrow to see if I can.

So far so bad!

The first episode I tried this on I failed miserably at level 4434. I played the same level on my iPad and got a pass with one hammer after about 7 or 8 tries, in what seemed to be much better boards than on I got on my Sunflower game where I had bought timed starting boosters and got nowhere near close for the entire 25 lives I had. Hmmm....🤔 Maybe they've been changing algorithms again so we no longer all get the same board difficulty. So far my advice will have to be "Don't do it!". But I'll try another episode. As they say: "When it's gone it's gone". It's only a test game, after all. So I don't mind if I spend all my gold trying to crack those algorithms.

Second episode update: Went better and quite enjoyed (levels 4446-4460). I still needed to spend gold on the legendary level and used a few lollipops to keep my win streak, so I'm not sure I'm going to make a profit. It might be harder as it is Friday. I might be more lucky on Monday.

Third episode and definitely no point playing starting boosters this weekend! Last weekend that strategy sparked lucky board after lucky board, two colour bombs side by side. Today not a single time have I had two out of the three colour bombs side by side. Ah, they are so predictable at King...

You are right, I had seen it before, but it had disappeared recently. In the past few months I changed my playing style after noticing how the algorithms had changed, and I thought timed starting boosters might be something that could help my game, but when I looked for the offer to buy timed colour bombs or wrapped/stripe combos with gold, this option no longer existed. I don't know when it had disappeared. It is only in the last 10 months or so that King have changed the game from giving out lots of free boosters to newcomers to just mainly timed boosters. We used to really be able to hoard starting boosters in the past, so before 2023 I would never have wanted to buy any of those, but that has definitely changed now.

Wow that has been around for a fairly long time, I think years, at least for windows versions.
