Candy Crush Saga Conveyors

What are Candy Crush Conveyor belts?
From level 531 in Candy Crush you will find conveyor belts as part of the game board.
The row of candies shown by the arrow will move along one space after every move you make.
They can move across the board in either direction or vertically in either direction.
The chevrons on the conveyor indicate the direction they will travel, in the picture the conveyor will move from right to left as that is the way the pink chevrons are pointing.
The candies on the conveyor move in a continuous loop, so as they go off one end they reappear at the start.
You may think this is yet another way the developers are making your life more frustrating, but think again!
There are obviously disadvantages to having candies move around and it can spoil your planned moves.. 
BUT... the conveyors van also be used to your advantage!
If you study the image below you will see that as the conveyor moves along after my next move the blue candy will move into position next to the blue stripe.
I can then move the upper blue candy down to set off the stripe, which will clear any jelly in the bottom which is difficult to get to. But the bonus is it will also pruduce a blue wrap.
As it happens the wrap won't be very useful in this particular game but has cost nothing to make.
Planning ahead in this way can also produce colour bombs and other combos.
If you have a stripe or wrap, or even a colour bomb on the conveyor, you can let it move along into a better position, either next to another special candy or just closer to the jelly squares.
So you can see that they are good more than bad.

Tips for level 532 Candy Crush
By Leslie Tiffi B.
Make horizontal striped candies and keep them . 
Whenever the ingredient travels to the rightmost column (the dropping column), activate a horizontal striped candy to lower it down. 
After the two ingredients are successfully away from the conveyor belt, make more candy combos to bring them to the exit.

Tips for level 539.
I found this a very difficult level due to the cream and jelly in the top 5 squares which either need a very lucky match or must be hit with stripes or combos to clear the cream, then the jelly.
Try to make stripe/wrap combos if possible to clear the cream and jelly. Colour bomb/stripe combo is also useful but not easy due to the limited board with holes at the bottom.
The conveyor moves the candies upward in the center of the board so use it to plan your combos.

Tips for level 538 By Leslie Tiffi B
Work on those cages and clearing the first set of bombs. The jellies in the middle on the conveyer belt seem to come easy but the jellies on the far right and left sides will be the hardest to get. 
Wrapped/striped combos right in the dead center of the top or bottom are going to be helpful if you can get them. 
Also colour bomb/striped combos will help you clear out the jellies.

This is considered one of the most frustrating of the levels in Sticky Savanna.
The bombs, although helping to give you a good score when matched, have a tendency to slip away into hard to get to places.
As usual, stripe/wrap and colour bomb/stripe or wrap combos will clear this best.

This isn't a very good score and I did go back later and improve my score.. 
This is the first level where the conveyor is introduced. 
The conveyor can be a help or a hindrance, if you are good at planning a few moves ahead you can watch the candies on the conveyor and use them as they move into position to  make specials and combos.

Candy Crush Saga Cakes

Are these cakes or Pizza's?


Some people call them cakes, others call them pizza's.
I think that since Candy Crush Saga is a game based on sweets, candies and chocolate they are more likely to be cakes.
OK, so what do they do and how do we deal with them?
Usually it's best to get rid of them from the board as soon as possible as they restrict the playing area. 
They cannot be moved or switched.
To get rid of the cakes you need to match candies touching the full segments and they will disappear one by one.


You can see in the image above that some segments are already missing and if I match the orange candies in the middle one segment will be removed from within each of the red squares because the orange candies are touching BOTH the cakes.
You need to keep matching next to the cake segments until they are all gone. 
Stripes will remove 2 segments normally if there are 2 in line with the stripe.
A stripe/wrap combo will remove FOUR segments usually, if it goes down the center of the cake, although not always.
If the combo hits down one side of the cake it will only take 2 segments.
If you need to remove a last segment and you have no moves next to it hitting it with a lollipop hammer booster will remove a segment.
Once the last segment is gone a giant lollipop hammer comes up and clears the whole board.


If there is more than one cake on the board each cake will clear the board when it is destroyed, taking the top layer of anything on the board.
If there is cream or double layer jelly on the board the hammer will take the top layer only.
So if you have more than one cake on the board try to destroy them one at a time on jelly/cream levels for best effect as they will take a layer each.
Remember that any special candies on the board will also be removed by the hammer, so try to use them before the cake is destroyed.

NEW BOOSTER!

The update of the dreamworld levels from 140 to 170 brought a brand new booster, the MOONSTRUCK booster.

Not everyone got it straight away and I suspect it was being tested before being rolled out to all players.
Three were given free and once they are used you will have to buy more with gold bars, real money!
Using them is not as simple as you would think. 
To activate the moonstruck booster you juast click on it and it gives you a moonstruck which lasts for FIVE moves! 
Great, you would think!
BUT if you use it before the normal moonstruck it replaces it so you need to think very carefully about when you use it.
I have used it on a very difficult level to see how it worked and found the best way was to use it just after the normal moonstruck so extending it and giving me chance to make loads of colour bombs and complete the level with a fantastic score.
Below is a video of level 147 Dreamworld, completed using the MOONSTRUCK booster.



News From King re: Saving lives.

01 March 2014

New changes to the mailbox on mobile devices. Ipad, iphone, android and kindle.

Here is an email from King to a player enquiring about losing lives constantly on mobile devices.

The mailbox for extra lives and moves is working the way it should. Lives
should only be added if you need them at the point when they are sent.

Mobile users are able to store some for offline play, although there was a
glitch allowing them to store them indefinitely. We have now fixed that glitch
to make the game fairer.

Once you connect to Facebook, everything in your mailbox will automatically be
applied to your game. If you already have the maximum number of
lives at that point the extra lives will be lost.

Thank you for your understanding and we hope it won't spoil your gaming
experience.

This may be bad news for mobile players but does make the game much fairer from the PC players point of view. 
Although I feel that mobile players do need to be able to store lives so they can play offline.. 
PC players are able to request lives from friends constantly, while mobile players, if playing offline, will soon be prevented from playing through lack of lives. 
Or is this yet another ruse of the greedy King to get you to pay for extra lives??
