1st try, 3 stars(419,760 points), 1 hammer used on last jelly. I hadn't come to this page before playing but had remembered reading that it was just as bad as the last board. Well I disagree with the last part but still a Hard level for sure. I actually thought I'd cleared it all & was waiting for the "sugar crush". When it didn't come I realized I still had a jelly left in the upper right hand corner. Since I thought this might be another possible "insanely hard " board, I figured I'd better finish it off right away since I'd been given the chance. Although after reading all your comments I might've been better off using one of my fish boosters than my hammers b/c at this very moment, I have 44 fish boosters & less than 20 hammers,but it's all good. I actually won a hammer after from sugar drops anyway :) Anyway, as far as strategy, I worked the board first, I made special candies whenever possible on or off the conveyer belt. I didn't find either the candies on the conveyer belt that hard to clear & once you get through the icing to open the board, same with the middle. Obviously it's about clearing all the hard to reach ones& I did that mostly w/ stripes & wrapped/striped combos. I used the frog twice(personally I find him very helpful). The first time was to get a bomb on the lower right hard to reach corner that was about to blow up. I was able to use him again by making a color bomb & since I wasn't able to match it with a stripe, instead I picked a candy the same color as the frog so he'd fill up again. I was really trying to match the cb with a stripe but it was a case of too much of a good thing. I'd made so many by that point that they'd started going off on their own. It worked out though, being able to use the frog again was helpful as I still needed to clear a cpl of bombs on the middle left side. At that point I'd cleared all but the jelly the frog was on(I thought it would be automatically cleared when I used the frog on it but I guess it was double layered. I made a wrapped/striped to get rid of him & that's when I thought I was done. Like I said, a hammer finished it off for me. I am glad to see this is not also rated IH as I feared it may be. Hard works fine for me.
