🐟 The Crush & Tell Fish episode is here, and you don’t want to miss this one!

Yes! The episode we’ve all been waiting for has finally dropped! 💥

The most talked-about feature in Candy Crush gets its spotlight in the latest Crush & Tell, where our very own Alena, Senior Product Director dives deep into the messy truth, the big decisions, and the surprising player feedback that helped shape the Fish we know today.

🎬 In this episode we'll talk about:

Why the Fish almost broke Candy Crush (yep, really!)
The “Butterfish Effect” that changed 20,000 levels
How the Fish actually works today and why
Dev insights and gameplay tips from the team behind the magic

https://youtu.be/gXUGBIezRV4

This is your chance.
The Fish has been one of the most discussed, debated, and monitored features in the community and your voice matters. If you’ve ever wanted to be heard, now’s the time.

👇 Tell us in the comments:
What’s your favorite (and least favorite) thing about the Fish?
What would you change? What would make it better for your gameplay?

I’ll be reading every reply and I’ll make sure Alena sees them too 😉

Let’s talk Fish 🐟

Welcome! 👋

Yeah, my point exactly: It's the fish that decide the best move now, not the players. That makes it more like watching television than playing a game.

Finally, I done reading the video. Thanks for tips, Alena: to have a few Fish on the board before coming to the final moves.

My favorite thing about the Fish: Fish is a brand new booster in CCS. I think this is a little improvement in CCS because Fish has already appeared in other King's matching series games long time ago.

My least favorite thing about the Fish: I think most of us know that: the targeting problem of the Fish. Tbh, I'm not that far in the game but I guess christinewupp is right on her views: Fish making the levels in CCS dull and all of Candy Crush far too uniform.

I wish we can change the way the boosters are activated by just clicking on the boosters without matching it with other candies to activate it. If you can make it, it sure will greatly improve the gameplay of CCS for all players.😊

If possible, please bring back the strategy element for the enjoyment of long-time players.

new fish is way better then old one . It’s same like candy crush friends . Which was much needed in candy crush saga.
It helps out last minute moves . It was long over due in candy crush. Thanks for adding this .

The new fish is amazing, a true game changer. It has a mind of its own and decides the best move to move forward in the game .. three cheers to the designers and developers .. !!!

Thank you for that interview Alena.

My favourite thing about the fish is: The newest version is quite reliable in what they will attack in the closing moves so this can bring an element of strategy back into the game, but only for a small fraction of the game boards. Some levels are now in the game where the new fish will produce a pass in the last few moves if we make the right move choices, which can be satisfying. So your tip to make sure we have a few fish on the board before coming to the final moves is a good one. The fish can make the difference between a near miss or a close pass.

The thing I dislike most about the fish is this: The changed fish behaviour has rendered the candy frog obsolete and unnecessary on all but a tiny number of remaining levels. They have taken over the job that Samantha the frog used to have, so the frog is no longer needed, which saddens me. In fact most of my older favourite levels do not work with the new jelly fish: The fish either have broken those levels outright and caused them to already have been replaced or the new fish mechanism has ruined the strategy needed for those favourite levels in such a way that the original strategy no longer works, making the levels dull and all of Candy Crush far too uniform.

So it's not personal, Alena, you've done your job well and done what you were tasked to so. But I absolutely hate the jelly fish for they have taken away the strategic element and my enjoyment of the game.

I've heard numerous players complaining about targeting problems with the Jelly Fish - some that can infuriatingly turn a possible Super Sugar Crush on your last move into a game over.

I haven't tried out the new Jelly Fish in a while as an inactive player, but I'd like to see a show of hands of who is a fan of Milly, Tiffi's mermaid cousin! Remember that she's one of the many characters in the game!

@QueenB , do you like her?
