Level 996

Level 996 is the first level in Caramel Keep and the 444th jelly level. To pass this level, you must clear 25 double jelly squares and score at least 100,000 points in 33 moves or fewer. When you complete the level, Sugar Crush is activated.

Difficulty

 * All the jelly squares are underneath the liquorice locks.
 * The presence of only five colours makes it less difficult to create special candies.
 * Board space is initially restricted by the presence of three-layered icing, two-layered icing, liquorice locks, marmalade, and liquorice swirls.
 * The jellies are worth 50,000 points (25 double jellies x 2,000 points per double jelly = 50,000 points). Hence, an additional 50,000 points is required to earn one star.

Strategy

 * Clear blockers quickly.
 * Combine striped candy + colour bomb or wrapped candy + colour bomb combinations.
