Hi,
why in some occasions my striped candies (or wrapped candies and other boosters) are exploding without any reason? Is that a wanted difficulty or a bug?
Best Regards,
Mike
I'm only in the 400s and it's happening to me constantly! Especially in the hard+ levels! It's an absolute nightmare!
I originally thought it was due to drop height as my husband also has the issue, but it's very obviously not!
What is going on King Team?!

Hi Emilia, the King team is aware of this glitch and they are trying their best to fix it. Hopefully it will be working better with today's new update.
I have noticed the same problem!! Mostly i have seen colorbombs explode for no reason. And it is VERY frustrating when i need them for making certain combinations. This problem has made me fail levels so many times recently...
I have reported this so hopefully they can fix it soon.
I will elevate it to a King Admin so that she can report it to the team. Thanks for making us aware of this.
It's happening in a lot of levels .. I am playing Level 1795 right now, and its happening on PC (Linux), PC (Windows) and Android-Tablets ..And as you know, there are more threads here, reporting the same Problem in different levels.
Is it happening to a specific level? If so, please let me know what level and I can follow up to see if others are having the same issue. And if that is the problem then I can elevate it to a King Admin.
There is no point in complaining about this anymore..Most levels are just luck to get through now because of this issue..This game was the best game ever but is now pretty much unplayable and with things that are going on in the world right now, I don't need to be frustrated when I'm trying to take my mind out from of things!!.Every level now has boosters that explode for no reason at all whether you set it up yourself or even when they drop on their own!! At one point I had at least 10-15 of each booster because I was getting really good at it, now I have none..Then King has the audacity to want to CHARGE you for buying boosters and gold bars..Get real! If you'd fix the game maybe people would buy a booster here and there but as bad as the game is now, you'd be broke buying them. No one cares because this has been an issue for a looooong time!
It's now July 2020.
I'd stopped playing a year ago and resumed recently, a couple of weeks ago. Same issue keeps happening.
It doesn't even have to happen during a 'cascade'. I've deliberately made sure the board candies were completely still before making a move. Then, I'd move a single candy to make a striped/wrapped candy or candy bomb to move right next to another one. The special candy moves the one spot down, touching nothing. Then, Bam! Big explosion of the candy that never even moved, which then triggers others. This has happened countless times.
I'd also like to think that since this has been so common for years already -- at any time and levels among scores of players -- that after all this time the developers shouldn't have any problems recreating the problem by simply playing the game themselves.
I'll likely be stopping playing the game again soon anyway.
I think we all assumed it was a "problem." However, King's continued and extended silence on the "problem" indicates to me that the exploding candies problem is designed to happen purposefully.
They know they explode. They designed it that way. They don't want to admit that because then they would have to answer to people who actually spend MONEY to buy candies. I never do but I know some people do.
It's actually STEALING from those people any way you look at it, so are they going to admit they're doing it on purpose? Nope.
It's also an incentive to make you watch more ads (making them more money) to earn more special candies or to force you to purchase more.
Either way, it's all about them just finding another way to monetize while screwing players who mostly have no idea why their candies just explode for no reason. Not have they bothered to answer the complaint for years now.
It's kind of like the change after my last update whereby I can no longer back out of a board once I start it even though I haven't played yet.
They described it as a "bug" which they fixed. I found that interesting since it has been that way since the very founding of the game. Yeah, nope. I don't buy it. In my case it doesn't make them more money anyway because when I run out of lives sooner as a result, which I do now, I simply close the game.
So in my case it's a miscalculation on their part.
It's yet another way to force you to go through your lives more quickly and thereby possibly resulting in more purchases if a person is too impatient to wait after they've used up their 5 lives to play. Do people do that? I guess so. I never do.
None of it is about customer service or assuring players have fun. King obviously isn't concerned about frustrating it's players because it is such a hugely successful game that they no longer need to care while they rake in the dough.
Well, I stopped playing when I got a new phone and my progress came over with the backup of my iPhone data, but my 100's of earned boosters all vanished. I never opened it again. It's a crap game anyway and I was stuck on the same level for months.
Anyone else have an issue with the booster wheel not letting you spin? Mine says come back in xxx hours for the next spin, but the next spin never comes. I am so stuck on level 7280 and I need some booster help!!
Hi everyone, We’re aware that some players who play on Facebook are currently seeing their game reset to Level 1, even though their progress is correct on other devices. We’ve reported this to the Studio and it’s now under investigation. If you’re affected, please: Confirm you’re logged into the correct Facebook account…
End game directly once moves running out, I cannot use the gold to buy more moves to clear level suddenly. Thanks
