End of episode getting stuck, not generating 30 min free pink hammer thingie

Anyone else seeing this? You finish an episode and get to the yellow star but the game gets stuck after the last level of the previous episode and doesn't move forward and everything else in the game freezes too. You can't push menu or events or shop or any of icons on the map, you can only tap the first level of the next episode and it moves forward again but doesn't generate the 30 min free of pink hammer thingy. Happens SO MUCH on android and iPad and windows. Anyone else? Does anyone know why?

    Hi @Aries2020πŸ€—

    Yes! I too have been experiencing this issue from past 2 milestones! But, no! I do not know the reasonπŸ˜•

    I play on Windows 10 and same issue there too!!

    Yeah... Ok, thanks. πŸ™ My mom plays on Android and she sees this all the time too. Today, it happened twice in a row on iPad. πŸ™ It's not that big a deal, but losing the 30 min free of the pink hammer is what sucks.

    Oh wow! You are playing 17646, that's how far you are?? I've never been farther than level 11000 at most, I think. By then, they get so complicated that sometimes I don't even understand how to pass them! 😊 Cool! You must be the master! πŸ‘‘

    True! The game has become very very hard now! I am also thinking of restarting from level # 1, but want to see how far I can go😊 And, no! I am not the master at all!

    We have many friends in this Community itself and you might have met some of them already…. @christinewupp , @cookiemae , @Carol-38 , @Werner_Cichy , @Scooterpie , @Peter_Tornaros are a few! They finish the latest levels that are released on Wednesdays and take part in "Star Tournament" a special feature that is available for the players at the end of the map🀩🌟🌟

    Hello @Aries2020 Like PummyRaj I have experienced this glitch a few times myself. It is annoying as it bypasses the end of episode reward, so we miss out on the timed hammer. I also don't know what causes it but we do get our episode race reward by clicking on the episode race flag.

    As for the complexity of levels in Candy Crush, don't worry: King are doing their utmost to simplify the game mechanics and remove elements from the game, usually replacing complexity them with frosting, and more frosting. All the new releases after level 18,000 are actually quite simple in concept and look very much like levels in the lower ranges. Those complicated ones you see are just a remnant of what the game used to be. I expect King to continue this simplification in 2025, so you might be alright if that is what you prefer. If you do ever come across a specific level you don't know how to pass then come here to the community and we can advise you on those.

    So you hang in there and good luck!
