Game Pause or Save option During Play.

Hi Crushers.

The idea is very simple that when we are playing any level there should be a pause or save option in the middle of the play. As sometimes if we are playing a game on the mobile and a call comes or some other problem like low battery or urgent task to do, there should be an option to pause and continue from the same spot....

I drive for other people a lot and play candy crush while I'm waiting for them to come back...Having a pause or a save would help . That way the game would take me back to where I had to stop. Many times, I will be at a point of winning a level and then have to stop. It stays for a while. But not long enough. Thanks.

It would be great to protect level streak in events that require level streak not be broken.

Explicit save and continue later is great but I would love to see it automatic because candy can be wiped out of memory before I can press the save button.

I hope boosters that are collected can be used with this.

I have left my game/phone on for hours and it doesn't change anything, I'm not sure if it's just my phone (android) or the game. I still like the idea though.

I support this Idea of pausing game.

I like the save option idea.

I haven't figured out the need to save yet.

I think this is an excellent idea, as I've had occasions when I've lost my progress - usually when I've been struggling on a hard level and have already used boosters or gold bars. I often can't control how long I'm going to be away from my tablet and I find that the battery has discharged. An automatic save feature during a game would be fantastic.

Hi @aijaziqbal

i think a pause option is a fantastic idea, I think it would help with iPad glitches and certainly improve game play for me 👍🏼👍🏼

I have an Amazon Fire tablet with a sleep/wake feature case I bought separately from Amazon. When I close the case, my game pauses and goes into sleep mode. Even with timed bombs but, be aware that the moment you wake (or open) the case, the bombs are still dropping down. This case works every time except when you win free play time or free fish time, etc. Then your free time play runs out. Hope this answer helps others who may suddenly have to quit in the middle of a game.

Good point! I just play as fast as I can once I start because I want those 20 gold bars. 😁

Since I am usually at the top of the game for mobile I keep forgetting that PC players are 90 levels ahead so there are plenty of people who have already played my level. 😁😆

Quote @bearwithme I would imagine that if you could ‘freeze/pause your game it wouldn’t stop other players so for example winning the episode race - the other players would still be racing so when you unpaused your game, someone could potentially have won the race, but at least you wouldn’t have lost your progress on the level you were playing.

Hi @bearwithme I doubt anyone would expect a game pause to affect anyone other than themselves as that would be a bit weird, and I suspect totally unworkable,

As for the Episode Race it isn't actually a race. That is, you aren't actually competing in real time, so someone could already have won whether you pause the game or not. You are playing against the record of other people's performance over certain levels rather than playing actively playing against other people. So overall pausing your game should have very little effect on your final position in the Race.
