I passed level 296 on Candy Crush Soda but can't play the next one. I don't have a play button. It says: unlock level 251 to receive gift. But i also unlocked that and couldn't open the gift. I restarted my phone but still nothing!!
Do you have the game connected to Facebook? If yes then try playing the level there. Once completed your progress is synced back to your mobile and you can now continue from next level.
