Level 1

Level 1 is the first level in Candy Town, the first level of the game, and the first moves level. To pass this level, you must score at least 300 points in 6 moves. When you complete the level, Sugar Crush is activated. This level is a tutorial level that will teach you the basics on how to play Candy Crush Saga.

Difficulty

 * There is no difficulty at all in this level. Just make matches to complete the level, even with plays consisting of only simple matches and no cascades, as a match will give you 60 points, which ensures completion of the level.
 * On Facebook, the only way to fail is to press the quit button. On mobile devices, the only way to fail is to press the quit button after at least one move has been made.

Strategy

 * There is no strategy, so you just play normally and try to make at least one combo. Also, try to make special candies to boost your score.

Getting Three Stars (For Daring Players)

 * Difficulty: Very easy

Reason

 * The presence of six colours makes it hard to create special candies. However, this point is less critical as a match will frequently result in cascades. Furthermore, there will be at least a match of four or five which in turn gives special candies, further increasing the score.
 * The player is required to earn at least 100 points per move (500 points / 6 moves = 83.33 points per move).
 * If a single cascade occurs, you will have three stars in the end.

Exception

 * Despite the rating of earning three stars as very easy, there is a way of earning less than three stars. It is to only make matches of three at the upper portion of the board. However, it is less likely to occur due to cascades.

Trivia

 * This level used to have split versions. It used to be one of the few levels where the Facebook version and the mobile version have differences in target scores, because the level only got nerfed on Facebook.
 * Even only making matches of three for all six moves gives the player enough points to meet the target score. This is because 6 moves x 60 points per move = 360 points.
