Not to be confused with Rainbow Rapids (Episode 186) or Rainbow Rapid (blocker). This is a new level type, and is currently only seen once the player is significantly far in the game.
Rainbow Rapids level icon

Rainbow Rapids levels are one of the seven level types in Candy Crush Saga. This level type's icon is turquoise with a bending line. Rainbow Rapids levels first appear in Snowy Suburbs, the 476th episode, with the first rainbow rapids level being level 7116.

Being a new level type, Rainbow Rapids levels make up 3.16% of Reality levels, at 514 Rainbow Rapids appearances out of the 16280 levels currently. Adding the 901 mixed appearances, there's 1415 appearances in total (8.69% of all levels).

These levels feature Rainbow Streams, consisting of several different parts connected within the board.

The current trend is 0 to 1 non-mixed rainbow rapids levels per episode. Since the introduction of mixed levels with rainbow rapids combination, regular rainbow rapids levels don't appear as often.

Since Level 8421, rainbow rapids levels can be mixed with any level type.

Objective[]

The player needs to form rainbow candies to complete the levels. To do this, the player must lead the Rainbow flowing from the rainbow cannons to a mold. by having a cleared rainbow stream between them.

Rainbow Streams are the main element of this level. They connect the source of the rainbow rapids to the mold.

Difficulty[]

Overall, the difficulty of the rainbow rapids level depends on how easy it is to clear the blockers on the path. Almost all blockers can block the flow of the rainbow rapids.

Certain blockers, such as liquorice swirls and waffles can land on the rainbow stream to block it and push it back. For example, if a liquorice swirl falls onto the path, the rainbow rapids will be pushed back to the tile before the liquorice swirl.

Chocolate and dark chocolate can grow over the path to block it.

Chocolate fountains, bobbers, and candy cane fences can block the path for the rainbow candies. However, if there was ever a level where this happens, it would make the level impossible to pass even with boosters.

Conveyor belts may not be able to move rainbow rapids, but they can bring blockers to the path of the rainbow rapids to block the flow.

Trivia[]

  • Rainbow rapids levels were released around the same time Hexagon levels were revamping their appearance. Thus, rainbow rapid levels appeared as rainbow buttons for only a short period of time and only to some players.
    • On the map, if you haven't been affected by the hexagon level appearance change, Rainbow Rapids levels appear as rainbow buttons.
    • The appearance change for hexagon levels caused all the level buttons to be pink, purple, blue, or dark blue, regardless of level type.
  • This is the first level type that is exclusive to HTML5 versions, and the first one since Mixed Mode levels.
  • This level type shares its name with the 186th episode.
  • These levels were never once known as Jelly Rainbow levels, unlike the episode this level type is a reference to was once names Jelly Rainbow.
