Extra Time Candy

Extra Time Candies are a type of special candy that can only be seen in Timed levels. These candies look like regular candies and can have any of the six regular colours, but they are glowing and have +5 written on them in big white letters.

These candies can appear in any timed level, and in later levels can appear at the start screen. They can spawn naturally by creating a combo effect where more than fifteen candies are destroyed in one move.

Extra Time Candies act like normal candies in that they have to be broken for their effect to work. When broken, they give the player five extra seconds. In some levels Extra Time Candies are vital.

In Timed Level sugar crushes, any Extra Time Candies that are left when the time runs out will be converted into wrapped candies and will be set off. In the iOS versions, these wrapped candies only explode once.

Trivia

 * Extra Time Candies can keep a level going forever. An example of this is level 252. Players can keep the level going for up to 2 hours!
 * Extra Time Candies make a unique sound when broken.
 * These candies can only replenish your time up to the maximum time limit at the start, ie if the limit for that level is 60 seconds, if you break one with 57 seconds left, your time won't increase to 62. It will just increase to 60.
