This is my 2nd time trying to post, I did earlier but it accidentally got erased. Had a very bizzare experience with this one, I passed twice, first on PC with boosters(lucky candy and CB) and then right after I saw I had +3 moves on my phone for this level so I decided to try one more time & this time passed without boosters, didn't even use the extra moves. So because of that & because my score was also better the 2nd time, I'm going to record that one & just wanted to mention I officially passed the time before with boosters. Anyway, 16 tries, 2 stars (63,080 points), 5 moves remaining (really 2, since was using the +3 moves from friend), otherwise NBU. The other thing that happened, not so much weird as really annoying was that I did come very close a cpl of times within the first 10 tries and in fact on my 7th try I only needed 1 more green!!! I couldn't believe it. If I'd had enough gold bars I would've kept playing but I only have a cpl and wasn't about to pay for them. As others have said,this is a dumb level, no skills used & you need a good board to be able to pass. The other thing you need is cascades, that's the only way to pass without boosters (or even with them). The best combos are CB/wrapped or CB/striped because they get all the greens on the board and make room for more. Wrapped/striped is good too or even wraps alone, just anything that will keep the board moving. My winning try(the one I recorded), I started with either CB/wrapped or CB/striped & ended with CB/green. I had a similar experience when I only needed one more, but I ran out of moves. This time at the end I counted how many greens were on the board and matched some other candies so more came down, until there were 10 & I needed 11. I had 5 moves still though so figured I'd be ok. Ended up winning after that combo, I guess another green came down in the cascade. At that point though I was also still using the free CB, I played the whole episode with them except the last level because I passed out right after they announced there was only one hour left to use them. So I definitely agree that without it, this level would for sure be Insanely Hard.
