Level 266/Dreamworld

Difficulty

 * The moon scale may make striped candy + striped candy combinations unsafe.
 * Moon struck may release candy bombs or ruin good set-ups. Any striped candies whose colour matches the colour on the left side of the moon scale will be removed.
 * The order is worth 25,000 points, which is equal to the one star target score.

Moon Struck

 * 1st Start: moves left.
 * 1st End: moves left.
 * 2nd Start: moves left.
 * 2nd End: moves left.

Strategy

 * Pay attention to the moon scale and the timing of moon struck.
 * Watch your steps when forming any combination.

Difficulty

 * The presence of five colours will cause fewer moves to be spent to create special candies.
 * The order is worth 25,000 points. Hence, an additional 155,000 points for two stars and an additional 335,000 points for three stars have to be earned through matching of candies.
 * 40 moves are more than sufficient to create at least a colour bomb especially when the board is wide and only has five colours.
 * The chocolate spawners may impede the creation of special candies. Fortunately, only one piece of chocolate can be generated per move which greatly decreases the difficulty of earning three stars.
 * It is inevitable that the candies below the candy bomb dispenser are destroyed either through the combination required as the combination will clear a row and column together or by moon struck. Hence, it decreases the difficulty of creating colour bomb + candy bomb combinations.
 * The candy bombs spawn indefinitely, giving players many opportunities to create colour bomb + candy bomb combinations.
 * Moon struck removes candies matching the colour on the left side of the moon scale, lasts for five moves and occurs twice. This makes it much easier to create special candies. However, it can activate the striped candies required for the striped candy + striped candy combination. Hence, moon struck may actually cause more moves to be wasted to create the striped candy + striped candy combination.
 * Even after the moon struck ends, it is not much harder to create special candies.
