Talk:Level 674/@comment-26306737-20150421134742

I passed this level after six or seven tries. I consider myself very lucky for that.

All I can say is that someone in Candy Crush HQ must have had a significant hangover when designing this level.

The level is broken. In a couple of different ways. As noted elsewhere here, it's also really badly conceived:  you can easily open a fresh try only to discover that you will have zero chance of solving that level, because the ingredient is sitting below the conveyor belt. I suppose that technically it is possible to move an ingredient OVER and UP several rows, but that seems quite unlikely. So you've no choice but to give up the life and start over again. This happened to me three times.

I wish there were some good advice or hints I could offer you here. I can think of only a few that will be of limited help:  wait until you get a desirable "start" board, with your first ingredient located at one of the extreme sides of the upper row (e.g. the top of rows 1 or 2, 8 or 9). If the ingredient is located toward the upper middle of the board it's still worth a try, but it will be very difficult to manuever the ingredient over to one of the far rows.

Once your ingredient is in an "open" row, proceed very -- VERY cautiously. You need to free the licorice of course, but then you  want to lower the ingredient onto the conveyor belt very, very carefuly. One or two rows at a time. The wrong move can send the ingredient tumbling below the conveyor belt and then it's game over -- time to give up the life and start again. Once the nut is on the belt you're almost golden, but do NOTHING on the lower part of the board. Simply make small "filler" moves to kill time until the ingredient rotates around to one of the release points.

Good Luck (you're going to need it!).
