Candy Crush Saga Level 1161 - Episode 79: Sugar Slopes

Tips & Strategies

Written by our expert Candy Crush players

Collect all the keys in one go.

In Candy Crush Saga level 1161, you need to collect all five sugar keys to unlock the chests containing the ingredients. It is vital that you collect all the keys in one or two moves as opposed to collecting one at a time by making regular candy matches. The keys are trapped within licorice locks that you can break using horizontally striped candy. The two rows at the bottom of the board each have two keys; therefore, one special candy can free two sugar keys in one move. Collect the key above the rest by making a regular candy match. In Candy Crush Saga level 1161, use a striped and wrapped candy combo near the bottom preferably in the last or second last row. Ensure all the keys are within the target area before activating the combo so that you collect all five in one move.

Bring down two or three ingredients at a time using striped/wrapped candy combos

In Candy Crush Saga level 1161, all the ingredients will appear at the top of the board once the chests are unlocked. Trying to bring down all five at the same time is a bit ineffective and will use up many moves. You should collect ingredients in small groups instead. The striped and wrapped candy combo can also be very effective in bringing down ingredients and earning many score points at the same time. The combo clears three columns, collecting up to three ingredients in one move. It also brings remaining ingredients further down by taking out three rows. In Candy Crush Saga level 1161, use the striped and wrapped combo at least two columns from the board s sides. It is also more effective to use it near the bottom of the board because cascading candies will make special candies and help bring the ingredients down as well.

Collect ingredients in hard to reach places using special candies

In Candy Crush Saga level 1161, one or two ingredients can get trapped in hard to reach areas in the second last row near the bottom. It is important to collect them in as few moves as possible by making various special candies. Try to make wrapped candy below or just above the trapped ingredient. Activate the candy to take out surrounding candies. It will explode twice and clear adjacent candies so that you collect the ingredient in a single move. In Candy Crush Saga level 1161, a colour bomb can also bail you out. Don t wait to use it with a special candy. Instead, swap the bomb with an adjacent candy that is of the same colour like the one below the trapped ingredient. If this is not possible, make matches near the bomb until the desired candy is within range.
