Candy Crush Saga: changes in the score & points system

Posts: 3,328 Community Manager
Dear community,
Last week, a few players around the world were seeing changes in the Candy Crush Saga points system and this week, more players around the world will be seeing these changes as well.
I'd like to share some information with you and also the reasoning behind the upcoming changes:
During the last months, we been worked on the Points System in the game.
Thanks to all the feedback received regarding the points system in the game, our objectives are improving the Control, Consistency and in-game Communication around the score and the points we get after performing certain actions. We want to make it more comprehensive and more understandable for everyone how many points they earned for completing that action.
Actually, this image from our sweet forum shows why we wanted to update the system:
The question we asked was... How many points did each one of those candies give that player and why?
We want the new system to be pretty straightforward and we are also working on some other new features that will be coming soon to the game and will work with this new system!
As for all changes, we will all need some time to understand & get use to them. Now, if you have the new Point system available in your game, please do share your feedback with us! We look forward to reading you comments!
Have a delicious day and see you around the forum. 🍬🍬

3 · Helpful Woah! 2Sweet Love 1Haha@Pounawea How I can know if I have changes in the Candy Crush Saga points system ?
- Report
1 · Helpful Woah! 1Sweet Love Haha@Tzvi_Marcu the first thing you'll notice is that matching 3 basic candies without doing anything else (breaking blockers, completing objectives, etc) will give you 120 points when crushed instead of 60 points. Then from there it's up to you to figure out what you think changed... Unfortunately if I tell you anything else then we can't get a proper reaction from you all on how understandable it is.
We are looking forward to your feedback, thanks everyone!

5 · 1Helpful 1Woah! 3Sweet Love HahaHi @Pounawea unfortunately I never paid attention to the game points. My goal has always been to just clear the level. You might get a lot more results for this if we could find a way to get the players who love to complete every level with 3 stars to see this and respond. Bet you they all keep an eye on the points! Just not sure how to direct them here.

3 · Helpful 1Woah! 1Sweet 1Love HahaThanks for the tag @wykoon
I'm not sure if I have it or not. It did look less flashy to me. But can't say if I've noticed anything else. Hmmmm
Edit: still flashy. And not clear about score.
@Pounawea can I ask here please, is there any change being made to the crystal ice blockers? Few people mentioned it on the accessibility post, you did months ago and for many it's still a problem. Or is it still being written up for review?

3 · Helpful Woah! 2Sweet 1Love HahaHello @Pounawea and @CandyCrushinator - I am similar to @Elsa - I don’t really pay attention to the points except to make sure I complete the level. I am more focused on getting the gold crowns, ensuring I finish a level the first time, whether I get 1,2 or 3 stars. I like 3 stars but I like the gold crowns and diamond trophies more. So the only time I really focus on points is on a level when you have to get a certain amount of points to pass and I haven’t seen that in the higher levels (7000+).
I did notice the change in points as it pertained to the Fantastic Five since I have a great team and am an active participant. So I really don’t know if I am one of the players with the change in points. Does this mean the amount of points needed to get each star has also changed? Or will I have a better chance now of getting 3 stars and sugar stars?

3 · 1Helpful Woah! 2Sweet Love Haha@Pounawea I play virtually the same way as described by @bearwithme so my opinions are also the same.

3 · 1Helpful Woah! 2Sweet Love HahaI'm sorry but I must say 60 points is still the traditional points in the whole Candy Crush, expect "Friends Saga".
Besides, I strongly don't accept color bomb's work, take it back like before, please do not the same as Soda Saga.
The change of counting scores only makes everyone be not able to get the stars they want.
