The extra moves candy was one of the secondary elements and special candies in Candy Crush Saga. It was a counterpart of the extra time candy which appeared in moves levels at first and other level types later on. Before their removal, it first appeared in Crumbly Cave, in level 3779.

Properties[]

The extra moves candy was a normal coloured candy that has "+3" written on it. Collecting this candy give the player 3 extra moves.
Unlike extra time candies, there was no limit to the number of moves the player had. Whereas extra time candies could not increase the remaining time beyond the starting time limit.
Like extra time candies, extra moves candies turn into wrapped candies and exploded during Sugar Crush. They could also be dispensed from candy cannons.

Trivia[]

It appears that this element has been designed to replace the extra time candies, which was removed from the game at the same time as timed levels, on 2 May 2018.
With their appearance in level 4206, it seems that they could appear outside of moves levels.
While extra moves candies could spawn from candy cannons in two levels, they could only spawn from cannons which can also spawn other elements before their removal.
Extra moves candies and the extra moves candy cannons had the tilemap code 084 and 085 respectively.
All extra moves candies were removed on May 7, 2020.
- Some moves levels have changed to other level types.
Started from 1.184 extra moves candy and its cannon had fully removed from game.
- Like Toffee Tornado's code, the codes become empty.
They never appeared in liquorice locks, six-coloured levels, rainbow rapids levels, order locks, skull pedestals, rainbow rapids mixed levels, or levels with alternate colour schemes. They were never required for orders either.
Only two levels featured extra moves candies with a non-spawning colour (yellow in both levels).
Although it was discontinued in this game, extra moves candies are still a very common feature in Candy Crush Friends Saga, starting from Level 1221 in said game.
Extra moves candies last appeared in the first version of Level 6910, released only two weeks before they were removed, making it the element that appeared closest to the date of its removal. Most elements that end up getting removed were absent for months, if not, years before being removed.
Extra moves candies are the element that existed for the least time in the game (from September 2018 to May 2020), even shorter than the existence of toffee tornadoes (June 2013 to October 2015).
