Tips & Strategies

Written by our expert Candy Crush players

Clear the path for cherries

Candy Crush Level 1049 is a medium challenge as you have quite a number of moves but also have a lot of obstacles such as the slices. So planning 2-3 moves ahead is quite necessary. At this time when starting the game, there are many blockers preventing the Cherries from dropping. Focus on them first. Use special candies (stripped candies) to remove the slices from the Jelly cakes. Also try as much as possible to target the middle of the playing field since in Level 1049 of Candy Crush, that’s the path the cherries best suit for reaching the bottom, due to the small opening in the bottom. Do not pay so much attention to the Licorice Swirls and Candy bombs. First deal with the slices. Another way to do this is to use striped candy combos that detonate vertically.

Move down the cherries while they are on same column

This tip is ultimately to enable you drop the cherries to the bottom. It also saves on your moves as when you drop one cherry, the other automatically drops together with it. To arrange them on top of each other in Candy Crush Level 1049, simply watch the top conveyor belt for special candies and switch them with the cherries where applicable. To remove the block that remains after the slices, the bottom conveyor belt comes in handy as it provides a knock out of the whole thing. The hard part is actually putting the cherries in line with the dispenser. However if you plan and use stripped combos, it becomes much easier. As the candies near the conveyor belt, try to remove them from the same column as the dispenser so that to put them onto the conveyor belt.

Clear candies at the bottom left of the playing field

At this time of level 1049, if you have followed earlier tips, the cherries are very close to the teleporter /conveyor belt. The task here is to get the cherries onto the conveyor belt. First remove the candies on the belt to pave the for the cherries. One way of doing this is by use of stripped combos at the bottom that detonate horizontally. This should make cherries drop down hence reach one of the level’s goals. Now all that’s left to do (if not have already done) is to reach the 30000 points. Best special candies for this are the color bombs and striped candies. Lastly, Candy Crush Level 1049 needs a lot of concentration so as not to miss out on any opportunities to detonate special candies, so pay great attention to what’s on the conveyor belts.
