Candy Box

Level 2

Anybody here frustrated with the current format of the candy box? Like everything else, this changed in such a way as to make it much harder for people to benefit. Previously, you could pick from a whole bunch of options. Now you get four options (often times they repeat) and if you choose none, you're given the last option by default.

And sometimes, the options go like this:

A.) Use a booster that I have none of (skip)

B.) Win seven levels on the first try (beyond impossible these days) (skip)

C.) Repeat option A (skip again)

D.) Use a different booster that I have none of (can't skip, must accept, now can't win the prize)

    Maybe I have been lucky, or maybe King is trying different things but twice now I have got through the four choices of my Gold Box to end at your point D. When this happened I closed my game without choosing and when I started playing the first choice of the Box was forced on to me.

    Yes, I really do not like it. Not knowing what the choices are before you choose one makes the Box too much of a lottery now. In many ways King might as well just give us one choice per challenge

    The last one is pretty much fixed with 3 boosters and one "win levels".

    Worst box = 6 unplayed levels or win 4 first try

    Gold (Gold) box 1 day = 10-12 unplayed levels, 7-9 level first try

    Gold (Gold) box 5 min = 7-9 level first try, 10-12 unplayed levels

    There might be some variation but while I was testing i got all three box types on various accounts and it seemed to run along the above lines.

    Just for a laugh what I just got for the crap-o box first chocolate

    Will 4 nightmarishly hard levels, reroll 460 green candies. Suuuure seems balanced.

Hey! Would you like to give us your opinion?
