Level 5125

judywins

anyone else having trouble with level 5125?? I searched and found it used to offer 25 moves and now it’s only 16 moves :/

Impossible with only 16 moves.

There is a recent post about the game seemingly being more difficult in the last week. I’m stuck on 2489 and have found videos showing the game giving people 25 starting moves. It now has 24. It’s already a tough level but to dial these back across the board maddens me. 😡 This is just in an effort to get more money. I refuse.

Judging by the videos on YouTube this level has had 17 moves for most of the past year. Moves even went down to 15 at one point. It isn't about how many moves you get but about whether the game gives you the chance to collect the keys early enough, i.e. whether you get a lucky board to allow you to do this. Look at this video in which the player did pass this in 15 moves (they had two spare at the end) and was so confident they didn't even bother to make the best available moves while playing (like the double colour bomb combo).

The game is fixed and if you get a lucky board like that you will pass, but if the game won't drop you the candies needed to bring the keys down in time, then there is absolutely nothing anyone can do to pass this level. You will need to have patience here and wait for your chance to get those keys early enough. Once down, with so few colours and the striped candy dispensers the board can be cleared quite quickly. Check out Johnny Crush's video, he needed 17 moves, but played more strategically to pass this.
