Level 2

Once I finished up the last levels in CC, then the Golden Path challenge appeared in Windows 10. I've played it three times. It wasn't too bad with the 6 hr timed Color Bomb and wrapped/striped candy combo boosters from Space Race. Once those ran out, then it was significantly harder. :)

@Pounawea "Golden Path is a five level bonus game where you can win 1 UFO, 1 Striped & Wrapped Candy and 1 Color Bomb if you complete all the levels. If you fail a level, you will still keep your progress and try the same level again right away." Not quite. FWIW, I'm playing Golden Path right now on Facebook. It hasn't…

Here's the details @Pounawea. Not a lot in terms of strategy, it just shows that completing the challenge is definitely doable. The strategy really depends on what the goal of the challenge is for everyone. For some, it might be the awarded boosters while for others, bragging rights. To gain boosters, the strategy is not…

Overall, it is easier by about 18%. About 5 less levels per player is required.with 5 active players (23 vs 28). With 4 active players, 7 less levels per player are required (30 vs 37). The analysis to back that up can be provided if it is really wanted :).

The third level was definitely the hardest. It took about 5 tries but with a lucky board and a handswitch, it worked out. The other levels took maybe two tries.

You're welcome @Pounawea :)

@Slatanictrash No offence taken. I agree. The numbers were an attempt to show the level of effort needed to win the Fantastic 5 challenge. The numbers don't mean that the contest is doable for everyone, it just means that it's theoretically possible.to win as long as everyone is actively participating (or at least 4 of the…

Slight miscalculation. There are no points for partial episode completion. Add a couple of levels to the required number listed above.

Had some free time so ... The 15,000 point target is doable once a week even for those who wait for new levels each Wednesday. Winning does require on average completion of 28 levels each from all 5 team members. On average, completion of 37 levels are required from each of the 4 team members if one doesn't participate.…

Thanks Foley1362! Progress is being made. There is now a Cosmic Climb area on the bottom right of the Candy Crush App on Windows 10. Selecting it brings up a browser and tries to connect to a special king page. Unfortunately, it just sits there. I'm guessing the poor system is overloaded. A few times I get a message that…
