Candy Crush Level 153 Video

Level 153 is a Candy Order level, one of five level types in Candy Crush Saga. Your objective is to get 10,000 points in 45 moves and two color bombs. In order to complete a Candy Order level, you will need to crush a certain number of specific candy colors or types. Some early Candy Crush order levels just ask you to collect colored candies. Others will require you to get types of special candies later in the game. You'll have to approach Candy Crush order levels very differently from other stages of the game! Use these all-purpose tips for Candy Crush order levels to dominate them and score truckloads of points.

Candy Crush Order Levels Tips

  • If you need to collect special candies, focus on forming them right away. Don't bother making any special candies that don't fill your orders. If you need to make wrapped bombs, don't waste turns by making striped candies.
  • Making special candy combinations can be incredibly hard. Try to make special candies next to one another so you don't have to move them together. Plan your moves ahead so you don't accidentally set one off before making the combo.
  • Be careful when using special candies to fill colored candy orders. It sounds like a good idea to use a color bomb to get lots of candies you need. But this will make it harder to collect more of those candies if your order is still not filled.
  • Use color bombs on candies you don't need to get rid of them. Then you will have more opportunities to make big combos with candies you do need, since they'll take up more room on the board.

Bonus Tip: Order Collection

AI

Don't just match randomly - look for where your target candies cluster. Color bombs are incredibly valuable for finishing orders quickly.

How do you reset your board?
Lisa's avatar
Resetting your board can only be done on mobile. All you have to do is click back when youre in the game to exit to the levels page. Then re-enter the level. You can only reset the board when you HAVEN'T made your first move yet. Hope this helps!

Hey Margaret, if you uninstall the game this will rest your board? I hope this helps.

I get the 2 bombs and the number of points and it still doesn't crush. Do I have to crash two bombs together? What am I doing wrong? This has happened twice. Help!
Brittany McDonald's avatar
Yes, you have to hit the two bombs to each other. Otherwise, you won't be able to pass the level.

What exactly is a color bomb?
Neil Watson's avatar
It's so frustrating. I had two colour bombs beside each other and set them off together yet didn't go through. I'm very disappointed
Scott Hannigan's avatar
I just got through this level after days of patient slogging. As always it's a little bit of judicial planning but mostly just perseverance. Some amazing things can happen seemingly spontaneously. In my case I got two colour bombs but they were separated by one candy. Then suddenly two more appeared adjacent to the first one forming three in a row and a separate fourth. It was a beautiful sight.

Cool... I guess I will never see that happen, because I just played it once and passed with three stars :-)

I actually just passed this level on the TOP half of the board!! I had 25 moves left before the merangue (sp!) at the top was open and gone. I was sure it was a terrible board! These tips really didn't help me at all. Resetting the board is not necessary. I don't play this on my PC. I can't reset the board anyway, and obviously don't have to if you're diligent and just keep trying.

I got tired of failing so went for a special candy (the one with the check mark in it) - it made a color bomb easily. Then I used a hand to move the bombs to the proper columns. Remember generally you cannot move a bomb.
