Color Bomb Scoring Nerf???

claytondaniels76 · September 2020

Good Morning,

I'm on level 2232. It is required that I achieve 750000 points. Typically, this is easily achieved by using a color bomb on a color that has bombs. Example, 20 Green candies, 3 of them green bombs, use the color bomb on ANY green piece and BAM, massive points.

Now, all of the sudden, hardly any points are awarded for blowing up bombs. I can confirm, going back to level 2214. I can no longer achieve the MASSIVE high score I achieved not 2 days ago.

Has something changed in the scoring? I've "finished" level 2232 using close to 7 or 8 Color Bombs, the highest possible points I could get was about 150000. Practically impossible to achieve the required score.

Any thoughts or updates on the game I should know about?

I am an Android player, connected via Facebook. The app is up to date on my device.

Hi, problem is same in level 4391. It’s impossible to reach for required points...

@Diamond Lim, @kiara_wael

This isn't limited to just that level (2232)... this is happening on ALL levels Not just target point levels. Every single level this is occurring, the points for color bombing bombs has drastically gone down.

Still having this problem on level 2304, it requires 250k score but the color bomb combined with a color that has some bombs roughly gives 10k points. The game is updated on android, and I've also tried to play on facebook. Do I sit and wait for it to get fixed? I've actually spent gold on a try that was kind of close, but wasn't able to win anyway...
