Spending money

primb

Hi! Is there any way I can play this spending no or very little money? I’ve been baying this for a month and have spent way too much! Thanks!

I would say the majority of people that play Candy Crush do so without spending money @primb. I have played over 6000 levels and not spent any money doing so.

I can’t imagine it. I really wanted to play without spending money but it took me two days and playing the same level almost 15 times before I finally passed it. At that point, I was losing interest…I must not be very good at this….

What level are you at @primb

It is not a case of not being very good as there is no actual skill involved bar some very basic features. The game design decides when you complete a level and there is a theory that if you pay money the game becomes more difficult so that you then have to pay money.

You are right though having patience is the one secret to playing Candy Crush without money.

I’m at level 330. Thanks for your advice!

I’ll just be more patient.

Good luck @primb, as you have already used money when you play I imagine your patience is going to be severely tested.

Did you see my list of tips I posted in response to you in the other thread? If you are at level 330 now and spending lots of money already then that is bad news I'm afraid. My honest advice would be to quit playing this game if you are not able to pass these levels without spending money. It will only get harder and more expensive later on. Don't get hooked on this game: It's rigged to make you addicted and spend money.

Maybe I can delete it and start over and be more patient with my self? Or just find another game that doesn’t involve money? I’ve been playing Word Trip for five or six years and I only spend $10 a year for no ads.

I agree, this game is a cash cow for the developers. It’s obvious that you have to pay to win after you’ve retried over 300 times an used all the boosters. I’m deleting this app, I can’t afford it.

I just did. Thanks!
