Why has the game changed to where you need to purchase gold or boosters to pass levels?

Why has the game changed to where you need to purchase gold or boosters to pass levels? I have played for many years without having to purchase to play. Now I am stuck on level 18635 for weeks, this is not okay. I am going to have to stop playing a game I enjoyed for years because it has become a money pit.

Welcome! 👋

Yes I must agree 100%

The game is now iimpossible to play and enjoy unless you have a stack of gold bars or purchase boosters to complete the level. Sorry to say I will be unable to continue same as you.

Well done Candy crush for losing longtime players

You’ve got company in this request @cookiemae 😊 I’m with you on this one and I’ve made sure the team’s aware players would love that feature 😁

I'm sorry @QueenB that's about 200 scrolls for me and I can't do it anymore.

Luckily @missydanbury @MannyFae has responded with what is a very good description of how the game is now. And unfortunately it doesn't get a lot better as we move up. But good luck with your game and let's hope King start relooking at levels to make them fun, challenging and doable without or with just a few boosters.

Hello @missydanbury

I'm unable to check this particular level as I am 600 levels behind, but based on a couple of videos I found I very much suspect that there's no magic trick to pass it. You are absolutely right in that the game has changed and now generally requires boosters and gold to progress, and this is especially true for the last 2,000 levels before the end of the game. Some of those levels are designed to be impossible in order to make players use up all their boosters and gold and start paying to advance. Unfortunately, a player without gold can't do much when they hit this wall of impossible levels. I will link a thread that explains the choices you have below.

Hey @missydanbury 👋

I hear you… some of the higher levels can definitely feel extra tough right now. The team’s been making a few changes to how levels are tuned, so it might feel a bit different from what you’re used to.

You’re not alone in feeling this way and we’re passing this kind of feedback along so the balance can be looked at again.

Let me tag some of our level expert members who might be able to help you with some tips for this level.. @MannyFae @Carol-38, any suggestions? 🙏

Music event disappeared
The event had 1 day left and just disappeared! I was so close to the finish. Make it right please. Also, you can't chat with the bot on the help center of the app on Android, the bottom screen function buttons cover the text field and you can't click on it to start typing.
Music event
why did the music event disappear to early? I only had 1 tape left to get the reward and you removed the event several hours too early than what the countdown had said previously! Sucks when I’ve spent so much time and boosters to complete it
Music Event
what happened to the music event? I completed my last but one tape and did not get it. I had only one more tape to go. This is very frustrating and might be my last time playing candy crush
Can't respond my ID
Why offline mod singing problems
Music season disappeared before time
