Secondary element

A secondary element is a board element of secondary function, and they are introduced later in the game (usually introduced officially on episode openers). They are not the primary idea of the game, and are not introduced in tutorial or beginner episodes, and they have many interesting properties to make gameplay more interesting. This term especially refers to such elements not considered as a blocker. Like blockers, they never appear until you have already completed the initial episodes (Candy Town and Candy Factory), and they are also usually introduced officially at episode openers.

Much like blockers, non-blocker secondary elements can take one or more of the following functions:

• Transport candies from one place to another
• Spawning certain elements and blockers
• Moving candies
• Altering the nature of candies every turn

Like blockers, most of these elements individually take up one space. However, many of these elements have additional rules on the amount and where they can be located. Some, like teleporters, must occur in pairs to function properly, while others, such as the dispenser, must occur at an empty tile above a space to dispense items. Others almost always appear in groups, such as the conveyor belt. You should also note that most of these elements, unlike blockers, are permanent throughout the level.

These elements, like blockers, add to the challenge of the game by manipulating the nature of the board, the candies, and where new elements spawn.

List of Secondary board elements

	Blocker Name	First appearance (Reality)	First appearance (Dreamworld)	Unique properties	Frequency
	Teleporter	Episode 6, Level 66	Episode 6, Level 66	Used to transport candies and other movable elements from one area to another. Candies will fall through a teleporter, and will exit through another one, given that there is enough empty space. Candies enter from blue teleporters and exit through pink ones. They always come in pairs, and one blue teleporter is always associated with exactly another pink one.	Common
	Candy Cannon	Episode 16, Level 216	Level 192	Directs which elements and blockers will spawn from. Can come in many varieties: The elements that can be spawn will be shown on the dispenser, while some cannons spawn these elements exclusively with no regular candies, while others can spawn regular varieties. If a level has a candy cannon with given secondary elements, another element cannot spawn from regular spawn points or cannons not showing the given element.	Common
	Liquorice Cannon	Episode 16, Level 216	Episode 16, Level 216	A cannon which spawns liquorice swirls.	Uncommon
	Ingredients Cannon	Unofficial  - Level 82  - Level 200 Compound Level 217 Single Episode 16, Level 221	Compound Level 217 Single Level 217	A cannon which spawns ingredients. Ingredient levels without ingredients can spawn an ingredient at any spawn point. Ingredient spawners therefore restrict which spawn points can have ingredients enter the board.	Uncommon
	Bomb Cannon	Episode 19, Level 261	Level 192	A cannon which can spawn candy bombs. However, it cannot affect the default bomb timer determined by the level itself.	Uncommon
	Compound Cannon	Episode 16, Level 217	Level 217	A cannon with more than one element listed. They can be any combination of: Ingredients, Liquorice Swirls, Candy Bombs, Sugar Keys, Mystery Candy, Lucky Candy, Chameleon Candy, Extra Time Candy, Striped Candy, and Wrapped Candy.	Uncommon
	Mystery Candy	Episode 17, Level 231	Level 231	Advanced special Candy: Will reveal either a special candy or secondary elements (especially blockers) when matched.	Uncommon
	Chameleon Candy	Episode 22, Level 306	Level 306	Advanced special Candy: Alternates between two colors every move. Can cause additional cascades.	Occasional
	Conveyor Belt	Episode 37, Level 531	Level 531	Moves every turn after all cascades ended. Candies (at rest) moves along with the conveyor belt, potentially causing more cascades. There are also conveyor belt portals, where candies and movable elements can be transported to a distant part of the board through conveyor belts. Each conveyor belt a candy enters is associated with exactly another one where a candy comes out. It can also prevent immovable blockers from creating through Mystery Candies.	Common
	(Corner)	Episode 39, Level 561	Level 561	Used when a given chain of conveyor belts turn corners, so they change direction. Candies still move linearly, but along the second direction.	Uncommon
	Candy Frog	Episode 42, Level 606	Episode 42, Level 606	An advanced element which can be fed to attain Frogtastic state, where you can select any open spot to clear nearby candies and blockers. Unaffected by gravity, moves only through matches, and can change color or gain special candy effects through matches. Only one candy frog can be present in a given level. Because it is the most advanced secondary element, Level 606 is a tutorial level. See the main Candy Frog page for more information.	Occasional
	Sugar Key	Episode 49, Level 711	Never	Advanced special Candy: When matched or destroyed by any other way, all existing Sugar Chests will lose one layer. Otherwise behaves the same as regular candies.	Common
