Candy Crush

[AuburnWarrior]

I love the continual updates that I get on facebook telling me what level someone's at!

It does confirm which of my friends have the most time on their hands.

 

[SatchFan]

Hadn't heard of it before today. I thought it was either the latest ice cream offering from McDonalds or an american porn star.

Never heard of it, surprise surprise, but I do know Smiffy spent two hours trying to set it up for Sam. Is it a swearing game ?

Currently at level 254. Some levels are easy and others are a nightmare. Have seen me having 50 or more attempts at some levels. This morning I played 1 level that I completed and was ranked 1st in my friends list with only 2 moves.

To play faster here's a tip. If you use iPhone. Turn of automatic time. Then set it 3 hrs forward. Open the game. Lives should be full.

IMPORTANT. Then go back and set time back to automatic. Only do it once per hour and do not go forward into a new day or it will make you wait the duration of the extra lives 2.5hrs before giving another.

Facebook needs to remove this game before I start to remove my own brain with a crochet hook through my ear!

50 attempts?
Try 2 WEEKS on one level and I'm on another nightmare!

Yep gave it a go as the wife plays it, now stuck on a level for over a week, driving me mad.

 

[Phil2511]

Which level?

 

[CMAC]

I like the challenge of games, never heard of Candy crush but she sounds interesting- will have a look shortly

 

[CMAC]

just tried it, 1 level...........

so you just match up 3 colours and they disappear and the 'sweets' move down...........like tetris

I certainly wont be getting hooked- nonsense 'game' with no skill required

 

[Phil2511]

No.
You have objectives to achieve within each area of levels.

Hit a points target.
Destroy all the jelly.
Do both of the above.
Do the above under a time limit.
Do the above whilst trying to destroy bombs that will explode if you make too many moves without destroying them first.
Destroy a specific number of 3 certain colours.

Do all the above with chocolate that grows every time you make a move unless you keep it under control by destroying it.

4 candy in a line gets a stripe
5 in a line gets a chocolate drop
5 in a L shape gets you a candy wrapper.

As you progress you must make certain quantities of each individual one of those. Then further in and you must mix these together as your target. Trying to get 2x5 in a lines beside each other is extremely difficult being that you cannot move them. Also one mistake can cause the whole lot to explode.

Then there is fruit and nuts that you must get from the top to the bottom, each dropping as one clears.

Plenty of thinking to do as some levels can only be cleared a certain way. It can take a while to work out which way and then you have to do it without making any mistakes. Handy for passing the time whilst sitting in work bored waiting on my next collection.

But Tetris it most definitely isn't.

Which level?

65 now 9 days and counting !!

Just say no people

i thought it was about a new sexy frontwoman for sky sports golf coverage," and now over to CANDY CRUSH in the studio" anything is better than the one doing it now.

65 now 9 days and counting !!

Need to try getting the 5 in a line sweets and pairing them with a stripe.
Or a stripe paired with a wrapper.

Those will help a bit.

This is level 264 lol. All those circles at the bottom produce chocolate that grows and grows.

Just say no people

This........I'm currently on Level 349, and i feel like its taken over my life lol.

some nights I go to bed seeing colours and multiplying chocolate.

p.s - i've spent months playing this game - but not one penny......dont pay for any power-ups - you can always find a way to clear any level

p.p.s - the iphone version only goes up to level 350 just now, so even if i get past that level, i need to wait for an update :angry:

You won't get to single figures wasting time playing Candy Crush. Get your butts down the chipping green instead

 

[williamalex1]

Its like a game in an old star trek voyager episode.

I haven't yet but the missus and the wee fella do.....
