We're aware of an issue with Facebook purchases for all King Games and our team is on it. 🛠️ Hang tight while we fix things! You can still enjoy the game, and we'll keep you posted once it's solved.
I haven't seen much on here about new episodes etc. I think your best bet is to follow the Facebook page as that page seems to be more about in-game activity. Check it out: https://www.facebook.com/CandyCrushSodaSaga
