Build a Bot boosters available for previous levels

Please keep the build a bot etc boosters available to players waiting for new levels. As it is, we can't participate in a lot of the challenges & contests. Now that the build a bot boosters aren't available for replayed levels, there's no incentive to play until new levels are released. Please reinstate the boosters for everyone!

My partner always had different booster type things to me and we live in the same house.

@LouiseT - looks like the only difference is between us is you are not currently getting the Candy Quests. I have it right under the Treat Calendar.

@louiseT - in the trophy I currently only have the bot - but Dexter should show up soon and when he is done I usually get Didi/Rami. I find it fascinating how different people get access to different things and I don't know why everyone doesn't get the same opportunities to win/earn boosters. I have occasionally gotten the beanstalk challenge and for a very brief time I got the ribbons. I never got the lovely letters (but I think that may have been something similar to the bot - except it could be used on old levels). I think everyone should get access to all the same booster earning opportunities. Fair is fair.

@LouiseT - In the Spinning Wheel - I have the daily Booster Wheel, Dynamic Duo, sticker challenge (I only started getting this about 6 weeks ago) Treat Calendar (don't you even have this where you get a new treat each day) and the Candy Quests.

@louiseT Main page 3 boxes on right side of screen - top box tells you what boosters you have, 2nd box has the daily wheel and bottom box has a trophy on it.

@louiseT - Candy Quest is found under the spinning wheel - I have it shown under the Treat Calendar. It asks "can you crush these Candy Quests?" and then gives you a choice of two quests. You pick one and then have 8 hours to complete it. The easiest are - give 10 lives to friends or be # 1 on a level. Another one is to collect 200 candies (green). I try to avoid the one where you have to complete a hard, super hard or nightmare level - but its not bad if you go back to one of the earliest hard levels. I definitely try to avoid the one about using boosters because one of the boosters you have to use is a switch. It recharges every 8 hours and you don't necessarily have to win the level to complete the quest. For example - being #1, if you already are #1 - I just play the level again - doesn't matter if I lose because I am still #1 for that level.

@louiseT If you click on the trophy box and scroll down there are challenges for you - they differ daily but give you 2 quests to choose from.

@keyser_soze - I also figure the new bot is here to stay and do the sugar drop challenge at least once a day (sometimes twice). I also do the candy quest twice a day. It takes very little time and you get a cb, lollipop and stripe wrap.
However I do have two complaints about the new bot - it shouldn’t arbitrarily vanish (like what has happened to some people) unless you lose a new level (when Part of it goes away) and you should be able to use it on a new level if you have it (in other words if it is partially or completely charged).

@Michiganplayer I have just accepted that this new bot is here to stay. I changed my strategy and I have actually found that it takes less time to pass the new levels if you have the boosters. I do not spend money I just complete the sugar drop challenge twice a day. I have built up over 1000 boosters since this change in February and I completely finish the 30 levels I get a week.

@Khaos Totally agree with you. I have now deleted all King games off my PC - the new levels with no boosters, the ability to use Bot on old levels being taken away and now sugar drops vanishing I feel that players who have stuck with the game for so long are now just taken for granted. King want your money and that is all they care about now.

Why do we lose a level of Build a bot on levels that we can't use it? I am referring to the newer levels released that you can't use any starting boosters. If we can't use it, should we lose it on levels?

Got some new levels on the iPhone today. Now I just need to pace myself so I can get a sticker each day. I play the sugar drop twice a day and have collected a ridiculous amount of boosters. The ads are back today, not that they help much are new levels but they were fun to use doing sugar drops.

So how is everyone doing today?

Not well. After a long day, I was hoping King would fix this mess and give back Boosters for old levels. Unfortunately, the War on Customers continues.

@Julius you can go into notification preferences and change how or when you are notified but I don’t think you can change it for just one thread, I think it would affect threads of the same type (like ideas).

Is there a way to unfollow this post? Getting tired of this spam.

I agree with everyone else on this topic - please bring back the ability to get boosters by playing old or previously passed levels. Those boosters are often the only way I can advance past a difficult level and if they're not available, the game quickly looses its appeal. I sometimes pay for boosters/gold/lives etc, but like everyone else, I won't be paying for anything else until this issue is resolved.
Anytime i connecty game i lose the boosters.

I'm only on 13 but that is because I changed my last buddy - he never played the game. I also wish we could choose out own buddies.

What is your buddy challenge at? I just completed 54 but my my buddy never plays. It would be great if we could choose own own buddies.

@chuck38 - I have the same problem with the game I play on my IPad through the Kingdom, but it happened on the 15th and I believe it is a glitch. I also didn't get any new levels on it. I am fine on my phone and mini IPad that I play thru FB.

@bearwithme and @Crimson_Dawn that’s awesome. I am at 116. Not sure how it goes up, is it based on lives lost or levels played?

Just lost built a bot, Didi and all daily challenges. King indicated all this would be put on hold (for an undisclosed time). I don’t understand why all this was removed the same day new levels were released. Very perplexing.
