hey king and app creators, including the community here!
thanks so much for such a great opportunity to play in the all stars. I started playing candy crush friends and CC soda leisurely in 2019 and have now been able to participate in the saga all stars 2025 and saga all stars 2026. It’s been a fun experience.
while I didn’t make it through this round, even while keeping my multipliers until the end, I got knocked out of final knockout 2/3 with multipliers even left to use since I wouldn’t have beat the leaderboard even with using them on the final hours.
I just want to share my experience and observations that some players gameplay is very unfair, eg. obtaining 10K candies in a minute, 320K in 4 hours, jumping ahead 50K the next time you login. I’ve seen lots of players posts in here over the weeks with similar experiences and screenshots. All very different but similar.
Last year I believed I lost to first place in the final knockouts to a bot (that I don’t want to make this post about right now)
I guess what all fair play players are questioning here is even with multipliers some of these jumping scores seem unhuman and even if they’re cheating to top a leaderboard, it means some may be sitting in the finals because they’ve cheated their way there, and not through consistent and honest allstars gameplay.
I read in the terms and conditions this year that you King, were allowed to disqualify player accounts using softwares, ai or other gameplay which could be robotic from the game. This makes me believe you’ve caught some unfairness over the years and have made it your right to remove these players!
Lots of others including me have questioned players gameplay. I guess after all of this is done I’m wondering if king and app developers can look more deeply into the realistic numbers of how one could achieve those claims above.
If it’s not possible from the side of the app creators and tech on the backend,
then something should be done.
If it is, indeed possible with one person normal gameplay, then by all means, maybe some transparency, or a post etc about this or how it can be achieved within the terms/conditions etc. I’m sure would be greatly appreciated by all players here who are playing fairly.
I guess I’m asking if this can be looked into deeper behind the candy crush scenes at a time when we’re not in the heat of the all stars so this can better potential future tournaments and contests where a lot of committed candy crush players would love to attend.
I started playing candy crush apps as a hobby quite a few years ago and I've seen a lot of changes within the games and apps over the years, based on gameplay and such. Ive had some accounts on other devices I no longer have access to, lots I never made accounts for and just played on the app, some I have accounts on and for other king games too.
A change made regarding the claims above and within the posts of the community would also make the game more fun and engaging for future tournaments.
Another note: I noticed players with the 20,000 level profile picture frame maybe have an advantage to collecting candies? I could be wrong. Some of those players I was noticing was having large strides in candies collected too, the all stars shouldn’t be based on how many levels a player has achieved. While I’ve heard differencing opinions on this, such as higher level are harder, lower levels are easier or 20,000 plus level players have an advantage of repeating levels, it couldn’t hurt to look at a change around this too.
my post is so long now but I only wish all the claims made within the community about all stars stats can be further looked at for future gameplay and tournaments, especially when there’s money to be won, lots of people would do anything including scamming or cheating for it….(I literally booked off work for the final stages and may have jeopardized my position) Thanks for the time 🙏🏼 😊
