Level 171

Hey guys, thank you for writing us here at King Care. This is the reason why you have less moves: https://care.king.com/en/candy-crush-saga/level-changing-on-candy-crush-saga-not-getting-the-same-amount-of-moves-as-your-friends  I have seen a lot of complaints here from the players regarding the number of moves for a specific level. I will forward your message to a King Admin.

Hello, same issue with me. Thanks for help!

Hi Orkun, I am just the messenger and was told to give that notice.  I agree with you and everyone else that dropping the number of moves like they have been doing is just not right.  As a volunteer, I am told that they test the levels before they are released by randomly choosing players to try them.  I actually was one of those random testers just for one episode.  They monitor these players to see how difficult or easy the levels are and then they "tweak" them upon release.  Then if they see that too many players are having difficulty they might tweak it again.  Before Activision bought them out, I liked that game much better than this.  They never changed the number of moves.  Yes they were difficult and very challenging and some players would be stuck on a level for weeks but it's much different now.  The studio is trying out different things such as challenges, and new blockers and I was told that the number of players still playing the game has increased and not decreased as we are all thinking.  I am not privy to that data but figure with millions of players, we are all addicted, with the exception of a handful that actually do give it up.  All that I can do as a volunteer is help the players here, report glitches to them and report back to the players here with their responses.

Heeeeeeeeeeelllppppp.  This level is so unfair. Makes not want to keep playing if this is what I have to look forward to.
