Order locks are live in Candy, so it's time to learn how to tackle these tricky traps.
What is it?
The Order Locks trap groups of candies on the game board. They will appear like 'laces' binding the candies into a trap, so it's your job to release them by tackling the lock. Candies trapped within the lock won't be able to be moved, switched, or matched until the Order Lock is removed.
How do I unlock an Order Lock?
Check for the lock and the candies trapped in the lock: Order Locks will hold candies in the group until you release the lock. Any type of candy (and even blockers!) can be trapped in the Order Lock. Focusing on releasing them is an important step in passing the level.
Check the order required to open the lock: To release them, check what the Order is that releases the Lock. You can see this by checking the icon covering the grouped candies within the lock. If the Order is for 6 Striped Candies, you'll need to create the Striped Candies, and doing so will release the candies trapped. If you have two order locks that require the same order, you won't need to meet the order total twice. Whenever you make a candy that matches the Order Lock requirements, any locks that need that item will reduce the total by 1.
Create the orders and watch the order counter go down: When you reach 0 of the Order Lock goal, by creating the candies shown over the group - the lock will be removed and the candies released.
When will I see Order Locks?
The Order Locks will appear from level 7896.
