Level 269

Difficulty

 * The general layout and placement of items can easily throw a person off and come off as intimidating. It is hard to make combinations. You need the vertical striped candies on top left and horizontal stripes on bottom right. There are few opportunities to make those.
 * The jellies are worth 32,000 points, which is more than the one star target score.

Strategy

 * Use the jelly fish to your advantage. Try to use the added jelly fish bonus at the start of the level as they help clear the liquorice. Then, make vertical striped candies on top left to clear down the columns and make horizontal striped candies on bottom right to clear the rows under the black liquorice. There are few opportunities to make those combinations. Colour bomb + striped candy, colour bomb + wrapped candy, and colour bomb + jelly fish are ideal combinations for this level.
