Level 1394 is the ninth level in Festive Forest and the 322nd candy order level. To pass this level, you must score at least 168,000 points in 34 moves in 0 moves or fewer.
When you complete the level, Sugar Crush is activated and will score you additional points.
To pass this level, the player must both reach the stated points and complete all 34 moves without any bomb exploding.
Theoretically, this level will never spawn normal candies. All candies spawned will be ten-move candy bombs.
The bombs will boost your score. However, the score requirement is very high, and they are a severe problem.
You usually need a constant supply of colour bombs to have a chance of winning.
The third tiles right below the dispensers are dangerous, as bombs tend to get stuck there.
The player is required to earn at least 4,960 points per move.[1]

Strategy
Combine a colour bomb + wrapped candy to raise your score drastically, and clear the bombs easier.
However, apply this to a candy frog. It isn't recommended to apply it on a normal candy since each wrapped candy will yield 2,640 points, plus the candy bombs cleared on the area.
On Flash, using the frog costs a move but does not decrease the bomb counters; this can be used to your advantage.
An important tip, is to use the frog to block a dispenser. Then, watch out for the bombs in the stuck zone. It is an important strategy for passing this level.
Utilize your precious moves in creating special candies, which in turn, increase the score.
Remember to avoid getting extra moves from friends for this level. It must be the only level where extra moves are a curse, not a blessing!
However, this also means three more moves will be spent on obtaining the target score. It can be a blessing when those last three moves will guarantee in reaching the target score. Still, it is strongly not recommended.
Should you have the extra three moves in Booster Bot, waste it on a hard level before starting. Otherwise, do not waste it, since a free colour bomb at the start can boost your score in your first move.
Trivia
This is the first moves level with extremely hard difficulty. If the original version of level 735 is counted, this would be the second.
This was the first moves and Reality level to have a one-star target score exceeding one million. It also beats the Dreamworld version of 608 for having the highest one-star target score (before it was removed). It is behind 4993 with 8,000,000 points.
However, when the score that candy bombs gave was decreased in version 1.186, it changed the score to 168,000. The first level with this trait is now level 3825.
This is the second level where candy bombs are everywhere. The first level with that trait is level 1132 (after the regular candies are cleared).
This level spawned sugar drops before this element was removed.
However, since the board contains only candy bombs, sugar drops cannot be obtained.
