Hi @Gary_Turner
Strangely I have completed the 1st green dot. Its 45 games just like the weekly 45 games. To complete the other two green dots there is another 90 games to go. Can be done but need time. The rewards are lollipop hammer, switch hand and UFOs.
No baddy but time consuming.
@Scooterpie, you're lucky. I completed the four episodes, but only 5 per episode. In the end 20 Gold Bars is better than none.
This is also the first time in weeks that I get the GB's in all the episodes.
Spare a thought for @Peter_Tornaros, who's getting short changed.
@Pounawea, the 4 episodes released this week was really Booster hungry, hope this week's will be drastically diffident. Those developers needs to redeem themselves.
I used 15 Paint Stripes in all the episodes, just to open the board to make things happen. At times it was useless. Still mad about failing the level in episode 538. Those Bubblegum Poppers in my opinion does not belong there.
@Pounawea, Episode 540 was better than the previous one, with less boosters used. Only 15 In-game were used in 8 levels with four used in one level. 14 Pre-game boosters were used.
There were 5 fairly easy levels, completed with more than 10 moves left and without using any boosters. Quite a few tricky levels made the use of boosters almost mandatory, with 7 levels completed with between 0 and 3 moves left, which was quite a high percentage. This underscores the fact that levels in this weeks release was much harder than some of the previous releases.

@Pounawea, Looks like the slightly better levels were sandwiched between the more difficult levels. Unlike @Peter_Tornaros, I had a slightly better experience with the four released episodes. This was probably because I had lucky boards in the middle two episodes.
This episode started with three difficult levels and then a ray of sunshine in an otherwise poor start with the fourth level. Most levels were completed with under 10 moves left (12/15) left, the other three being tricky but easy. This was by far the highest ratio of levels completed with fewer than 10 moves left (0-7). I played this level early on Sunday morning, so I was quite alert.
Again, creating CB Combos at the start makes the board easier to negotiate if the layout is favourable. In quite a few levels it was not easy to target the orders.
Three levels were completed with the last move and three with one move left. In-game boosters used were quite high, compared with the previous two episodes. Most boosters used in one level was 5 followed by a four and three in two levels. This was 15 boosters in four levels.
Only 5 levels were completed with no boosters used. Wasted lots of moves in trying to create combos instead of using boosters.

Level 8033: Difficult level with limited options at start. Waste of moves and 2 CB's. Special candy drops at extrimities only makes for poor design. Had to deploy UFO to open board with only a few moves left and then had to use PS x 2 to create combo's to collect all orders. Completed level with last move.
Level 8092: Difficult level. Special Candy drops on moving conveyor adds to level difficulty and makes collecting the keys difficult. Lots of wasted moves to collect keys. Resorted to LHx2 to clear the Bgum, with 2 moves left. Completed level with last move.
Level 8095: Limited moves at start makes this a poor level. Board reshuffling created congestion of fruits and creating candy combos at the right places was difficult. Had to smash candy bombs with LH's to get ahead. Started level with Coconut Wheel. CW not available, and only became available once the order was collected.
Level 8098: Found level difficult. Special candy drop not helpful. Lots of wasted moves to align candies to destroy icings for last fruit to drop. Getting rid of licorices also wastes moves. LH to create CB Combo at start
Level 8101: Difficult level. Overuse of PS helped in clearing blockers
Level 8105: Difficult level, with lots of wasted moves to align CB with key colour candy. Took forever to destroy the final licorice. Too much going on in this level.
@Scooterpie, @Peter_Tornaros, good luck with today's release. Will be off grid for about a week.
