Refuse to pay anymore

Jasbilina

Im sorry King, I think CC has become a scam, you get people addicted to the game and then make the levels so difficult that you have to pay to get by, Im on level 8,000 something and finally said enough, I will never pay another dime to pass a level, if I don’t pass anymore levels Im fine with it, because every level is extremely difficult.

Agreeing. The levels can't be passed with the number of turns you are given. You have to buy extra turns. I don't like that you can't progress in the game unless you spend money.

Hello @Jasbilina and welcome to the community!

Well done for making that decision and please stick to it!

I have read many posts here from others like you. I agree with you: The game is very addictive, it always has been, but in the past players were allowed to play without spending money if they used certain strategies and were patient enough to wait for a lucky board. This has changed over the past twelve months. We now face rewritten episodes in the game, which are put in the game to completely block players unless they have gold bars left or pay money to purchase gold.

So I have been advising anyone here in the community who has run out of gold bars the following:

If it it's not fun, don't pay for it. If you don't think what you get is value for money, don't pay!

If you can't afford to pay to play Candy Crush then don't spend a dime on this game, as it is highly manipulative and the more you spend the more the game expects you to spend.

If you are addicted and can't do without it, like all addictions, going Cold Turkey is a good idea. You might be surprised how quickly you find something else to fill that gap.

Or uninstall the app, reinstall and start playing at level 1. Many of us have done this and found that if you use boosters and gold wisely from a new start you can get into the thousands of levels without spending real money. If you do so, hang around in the community here as we do discuss tips and strategies.

Take care and best of luck with your life !
