These Candy Crush Saga tips will help you beat all the levels in the game. Keep reading for tricks and cheats on how to make the best moves in Candy Crush, form special candies, get free lives, reset your board and much more!

Candy Crush Saga Tips

1. Get free extra lives in Candy Crush Saga.

On mobile devices, you can manually set ahead your time to refill your full lives in without paying! Click on the link above for a step-by-step walkthrough on how to get free lives. Read More >>

2. Reset your board if you are dealt bad candies.

On any untimed level of Candy Crush, you can reset your board before you make any moves. If you don't like the set-up, tap out to the main menu and then tap back into that Candy Crush level. The board will be different and you won't lose any lives. Click on the link above for instructions on how to reset your board. Read More >>

3. Always look for special candies.

Special candy moves are always better than the basic 3 candy match. There are three types of special candies in Candy Crush Saga: striped candy, wrapped candy, and color bomb. Learn how to make all the Candy Crush special candies.

4. Special Candy Combos are the best moves to make.

You can combine any two special candies to make a special candy combo. Each special candy combo has a different effect, and they are all very helpful in helping you beat each level of Candy Crush. Here are all the Candy Crush Special Candy Combos.

5. Remove blockers first.

Clear the squares with the blockers first. By matching candies in and near the blocked squares you will be able to complete the level within the set number of moves. Be wary of any blocked squares on odd corners of the board, as they will be more difficult to remove, so try to get rid of them first. For more on in-game obstacles and blockers, go to our Candy Crush blockers page.

6. Don't always use suggested moves

If you get stuck and don't make a move for a certain amount of time, the game will provide a hint for you in the form of candies flashing. Only use this move if you can't spot any else.

7. Take a look of the entire board and plan out your first moves before randomly matching.

Remember: What are the objectives? Is this a timed level, how many moves do you have, are your ingredients already on the board?

Maureen•February 4, 2014

Let's just say.....I need to get a life...or live the one I own!

Sandi Wimmer•January 11, 2014

245 is a joke. Stuck all week. Tried at least 100 times between pc and phone. Mystery candys more often deterrents rather than useful candy. If a useful piece is discovered, it's usually wrapped...really??? Are the developers laughing at the rantings of people posting their frustrations? Statagizing is useless since stripes and wraps are usually blown away. Color bombs are useless. This might be the level that leads to the end of the saga for me. This used to be a fun, relaxing distraction from an otherwise hectic, stressful day. I don't need more aggravation.

Patrick Murtha•January 31, 2014

level 153.fix the whole nearly impossible thing.color bomb plus color bomb?done it before but its hard

Candy Crush Cheats•February 24, 2014

Today I accidentally clicked 'connect to facebook' and it went 100 levels back, where I was the last time I was connected! Ahh so annoying. Please tell me there's a way to disconnect from FB and get back to my level....

m on 166 help me

judy•April 4, 2014

Who is odus bird and why play it after doing 50 levels. Just wondering

Bucinka•December 23, 2014

Odus is a retarded bird who should have been weeded out of the owl gene pool long ago. Apparently he forgot he can fly, so if you knock the crescent moon he sits on out of balance by making too many matches of a particular color, he falls off instead of using the wings God gave him. :-P Especially annoying when you're on an color orders level and his crescent has one or two of the colors you're trying to collect. In that case, reset the board.

JudiMorrisonDunham•July 3, 2014

When you first increase your date in settings, then opene candy crush to see your 5 lives, you NEED to go back and change your date/time settings back to "automatic" before playing the game. Happened to me several times. The only way I could fix it was to delete my candy crush and reload it. NO, before you ask, YOU DO NOT LOSE YOUR LEVELS! Have done it several times.
