Interesting, I don't like the sounds of that particular mechanic.
Goodness me, @cookiemae ! Now that is both interesting and worrying at the same time. I do hope that's not a sign of things to come for you now. I can't find a video of this level yet on YouTube and of course being on mobile I can't reach there yet. Any chance you could send a screenshot of your starting board? Maybe it would be best in this official thread rather than here though:
@christinewupp @SneakyMelonPyroDuck 1st time for me ever. I had to play level 17,866 multiple times to try and pass matter of fact I played it 15 times before I decided to buy extra moves.. It always came down to needing 10 additional moves no matter how it was played. It was a interesting experience for me because I couldn't believe the set up of the board. I just had to tell someone. Lol
You nailed it @SneakyMelonPyroDuck. That's the weirdest part about it: getting +XX number of additional moves for levels I'd already passed. I didn't even play a single new level, just attempted to refill my chocolate box that had reset from the beginning.
I totally agree with you on that. It's not just the way they have rewritten the early levels and keep experimenting with them. It's everything in the game: Look at all those posts about the missing episode race for Android players. The more they mess with the game the more they mess up. They are leaving the AI in charge, and there is no one with any computing competence keeping the AI in check. It's a shambles.
By the way, yesterday I played episode 321-335 and lost loads of gold as every single marked level was impossible to pass. I've not seen it this hard before. They seem to be actively trying to get players to quit early in the game. Total incompetence.
Yes, I have noted again and again that if you don't make the correct first move you often cannot pass a level. Of course that is why I always recommend to players to turn on hints and play the first move the game suggests. On a lucky board this strategy will always work. On a "fail" board of course it won't, but then on those boards no strategy will work anyway! I do of course understand that when playing a testing game like you do that not using hints is a valuable strategy to use.
LMAO, sounds like the "extra turns" for not playing are jacked up, at least for the old boards.
Welp that was a short one.
Episode race raced off at 80 and nothing I tried brought it back. So gold is gone and run in done.
I am kinda thinking the standard King interview is:
King: Please count for me starting at 1.
Interviewee: Huh?
Interviewee: 1.. 2.. 3…
King: Please stop there, you are clearly overqualified to work for us.
Anyway, might give it one more shot in Jan… Dunno, the KitKat stuff plus the truly impressive level of incompetence shown of late might be a little too much for me.
Something I did notice while trying to get my race working again. The KitKat bars yesterday were popping with the word KitKat. Today they simply popped and looked like normal red candies. Also the effects for stripped candies were messed up as others have mentioned in the past.
It is almost impressive how completely King can manage to just mess stuff up.
Misc. finding, not sure if you guys have discovered it yourself:
I pretty much abandoned my SS game as work has picked up. I finally opened it today and was greeted with a message of how happy King was to see me again; have a +1 move!
I thought, how crappy is that. But then I played a few old levels and saw boards open with +11, +13, all these random numbers flashing. L17 had like 33 moves. I got a 300,000 score on it, WUT! Same gummy dragon board as usual, just a lottt of moves.
So maybe the secret to success in the game is just not opening it for a few weeks. 🤷‍♂️
Not playing with hints.
Normally 65 is not so tight, it was due to the striped candies just randomly went off when they should not have. At that point the board was brutal hard. It is something I have noticed when you do not make the "correct" first move. If you do the board is easier, if not it becomes really hard.
Ya normally 54 is tons of coluor bombs, it was that the first move was not correct. It seems to cause the board to be more or less a fail board.
When I played level 65 recently (Tiffy avatar) I noted that the algorithms seemed to have been fixed to include a lucky board for anyone with boosters. Have you tried playing the first move the game suggests? I have just tried the level with a colour bomb on the board and made the suggested first move. The mechanism to pass was different from the usual coconut wheel one, but I got a lucky board to help me pass easily by other means.
I just tried level 54 as well and here too I got zillions of colour bombs dropping to help me pass on my last three moves even though the colour bomb on the starting board blocked the ideal first move.
Third Time is the charm
So levels Win Streak can break are 54 and 65
Attempt 1 and new level notes
Attempt 2
Haha, no way I could do 6 hours with 5 lives. I go with the infinite lives for 69 gold, which is also why they are 6 hour sessions :D
I'll be curious if you make it through all those early episode races successfully. I lost so many lives in my last two new games that I failed one of the episode races. (a different one in each game). They used to give us days, now it's less than 24 hours per race even before you reach champions race.
What do you do for more lives when you play 6 hour sessions? Do you stick to the five lives given or do you refill your lives by that well known mechanism we don't mention here?
