Hi Michelle, there is a problem with the lives. Spoke to a King Admin and was told that something happened with Facebook yesterday and it wiped out the lives for some players. King does not reimburse or replace lost lives so I regretfully have to tell you that you will have to start building them up again. Me too
Well I did uninstall and the first time I played it again with 12 moves and I got lucky and actually beat it. Yes I am having the same trouble. When I went to see how i could solve the game it shows 50 moves.
