Stuck on the same Candy Crush level for weeks? You're definitely not alone. Some Candy Crush levels are ridiculously hard to beat. We've compiled a list of the top 10 hardest Candy Crush levels of all time with our top tips and cheats to beat them. If you're one of the many that are stuck on these levels, we hope the following Candy Crush tips and cheats can help you out!

How many levels are there in Candy Crush? There are currently 1895 levels in Candy Crush Saga. An additional 665 levels can be found in Dreamworld. Despite the hundreds of levels, many of the hardest Candy Crush levels are found relatively early in the game. Three of the hardest Candy Crush levels occur before level 100. Scroll down to learn more about the hardest Candy Crush levels.

1. Level 70

Objective: Clear all the jelly in 45 moves. Level 70 is another very tough jelly level. The combination of many blockers and teleports makes it challenging for even very experienced candy crushers. This board requires re-rolling for strong opening matches on the right side. Horizontal striped candies and combos made on the left can help you break jellies on the right. The chocolate needs to be cleared in the first several moves for the best chance to win. Read more in our complete Candy Crush Level 70 guide.

2. Level 76

Objective: Clear all ingredients down in 33 moves. The hard part of Level 76 is understanding where the candies are going. The ingredients need to be cleared at the top left box, which means the best matches to cascade candies will be made in that box. Once you understand the direction of where your ingredients will fall next, it becomes a lot easier to make decisions on where and when to make matches. Read more in our complete Candy Crush Level 76 guide.

3. Level 97

Objective: Score 100,000 points in 25 moves. Level 97 is tricky because of the bombs that keep falling onto your board. There is also a bomb in a hard-to-reach area in the top right corner. At the same time, you need to reach 100,000 points in a low number of moves. Our tried and tested method to beat this level is to create as many special candies as possible while removing bombs. This helps you rack up points quickly as simple 3 in a row matches will not get you there. Read more in our complete Candy Crush Level 97 guide.

4. Level 130

Objective: Collect all the orders (5 striped + striped combos) and score 20,000 points in 40 moves. Level 130 needs you to make a very tough order on an awkwardly shaped board. You'll need a decent amount of luck to get five striped candies next to other striped candies within the move limit. The best tip is never to make matches randomly. Always be planning to make more striped candies. Avoid wasting moves on making other special candies. Read more in our complete Candy Crush Level 130 guide.

5. Level 147

Objective: Clear all the jelly and score 125,000 points in 50 moves. Level 147 is one of the absolute hardest levels you will face in Candy Crush. You have an entire board of jelly you have to clear while bombs are constantly cascading down, which need to be removed. You're going to have to make a lot of special candies to clear all the jellies and get rid of bombs whenever you can. Read more in our complete Candy Crush Level 147 guide.

6. Level 350

Objective: Clear all the jelly in 60 moves. If you get as far as Level 350, you probably have a decent amount of Candy Crushing experience and are still struggling with this level. You'll want to reset the board and look for a striped and wrapped combo to help break up the jelly in the middle of the board. That will make it a lot easier to clear the bombs once they are released. Read more in our complete Candy Crush Level 350 guide.

7. Level 377

Objective: Collect all the orders (100 green, 100 purple, 100 yellow) and reach 30,000 points in 50 moves. Level 377 is a hard level to beat–mostly because there are so many orders and blockers! To get started, you need to take care of the meringue layers. Striped candies will be the most useful here, but don’t put too much stalk in them; a 3-candy combination does almost as must damage. Read more in our complete Candy Crush Level 377 guide.

8. Level 534

Objective: Clear all the jelly in 25 moves and get at least 200,000 points. Candy Crush Saga level 534 is tough due to the conveyor belt, multi-layered meringue and dastardly candy bombs. To beat this, try to clear out the candy bombs located on the shifting conveyor belt. But remember that the conveyor belt can throw a wrench in your plans. For more tips and cheats, check out our complete Candy Crush Level 534 guide.

9. Level 740

Objective: Remove 13 2-layered jellies in 50 moves or less and gather at least 20, 000 points. To achieve this in the shortest time possible, consider clearing the icing at the bottom of the playing field as soon as you start playing the game. This will easily help you to clear the sugar keys that inhibit your progress. Read the complete Candy Crush Level 740 guide.

10. Level 1142

Objective: Bring down four ingredients in 30 moves.

Focus on moving the cherries into columns after you clear the icings. Watch the full video in the complete Candy Crush Level 1142 guide.

Level 500 is insane!!! I think its as bad as, if not worse than 197!! Really tempted to boycott the game for a few weeks, but I am sooo close to finishing the entire game!
Donna Brower's avatar
Took me 3 months to beat 500!!!!
Tygros's avatar
Agree, but wait until you get to 578. You can't beat it without buying add-ons. Malicious - easy month+
Gigi Marie's avatar
I couldn't remember 500 either so went back & looked at it. I only got 1 star so must've been hard! Lol.
Chris Mcleod's avatar
I got to 500 totally expecting to b stuck for some time as I remember some of these comments. Got lucky and completed on first try while watching some football. Buddy thought I was commenting on the football game when I completed the level lol
Lars Landover's avatar
I JUST beat 500!!! You can do it! Get those striped-wrapped combos, Lexi, and you'll be there. Good luck!
jahstoney's avatar
Level 84 of the owl levels is messing with me, and still Waiting for a ticket for 381. I refuse to buy anything.
Frank's avatar
Ya! Stick it to em for building this game for you to play!
Gigi Marie's avatar
Interesting, I went back to 84 in the dreamworld to see what you guys were talking about. I passed it w/ 2 stars and was #2 in the top 3 of my fb friends but honestly don't remember it. Sometimes I find the dreamworld more difficult in general though than the "real world".
Freakyya's avatar
Lvl 165 is a real bitch too
Lwazi Tili's avatar
i'm stuck for a month now
Nova's avatar
Why do you have a game that is impossible. Is it just for me because I refuse to spend any money? Level 165 hardly ever allows me more than 7 moves because of the bombs. If I am ever able to use all my moves the most blues I can get is 40-50 because there are not any on the board. I am taking a vacation from you. I don't need the frustration
Rasheda Clarke's avatar
My daughter dnt ave to wait for the minutes given to restart the game she just change the time on her table and if she does that too often then the date then the year and she go on and on
Jimmxx's avatar
After she changes the time and gets new lives, she needs to go back in and reset the date. Then you don't have to change the months and years.
Udit Kumar's avatar
Level 350 suckkkkksss, from the last 10 days i am stuck....

I´m on Level 740, but level 734 is hell. There are a lot of difficult levels. You must buy gold bars
Veronica Spears Lindsay's avatar

jiroarturo's avatar
I am on level 520. It might take me 1/2 year to reach level 570. Keep trying.
daniel's avatar
Level 578 was the hardest by far. Took my about a month..
Mark's avatar
Wait to you get to 829! Ouch
Tygros's avatar
Agree on needing to add in 578 - by far the most difficult. Incredibly so
Brenda Joyce Cann's avatar
Level 323 is killing me. Stuck for 3 weeks!!!!!!!!!!
JJm's avatar
Omg this was awful, pretty much down to luck. Just make striped wherever you can and try to like them up all at once :(
Gigi Marie's avatar
It's funny, I hadn't seen 33 mentioned in any other "hardest of" lists of Candy Crush but I was actually about to look for tips for 33 b/c I've finished up to 590 which is as high as the phone will go and am waiting for tickets to get to 591 since it goes up to 605 on FB. In the meantime I figured I'd go back & try to get 3 stars on earlier ones & I'd remembered trying to do that before & getting stuck on 33. I'd passed it a LONG time ago w/ 2 stars but then when I went back to play it again, I couldn't for the life of me even remember how I'd passed it at all! Going to read your tips & see if I can make it to 3 stars...

Mjlovesme's avatar
Level 350 is not tough at all. Just with some attempts I pulled through. And candy crush is the most fucked up game in the world. The levels will never finish because they're making money put of it. Regretted playing so.
Sarah Moreira Utzig's avatar
I've just finished level 470, and 350 was the toughest one so far, no doubt.
Kylie's avatar
How do I beat level 24 on odus the owl?
rakall0152's avatar
Level 265 seems impossible. The sample that was shown on the candy crush site did not have the bombs shown. Have they changed this or what???
Jennifer Augustus-Brandon's avatar
It is impossible for me to beat world 377, i am following everything that everybody is saying. This world is impossible, I fell like quitting.
Joe S's avatar
I struggled for 3 weeks with 377. I realized I had eight hammers left and used 7 of them on the jellies to finally pass this level. If you don't mind buying them, playing another game may earn 5 hammers or just save a bunch of them and use them when you know you have enough. Good luck. I warned my SIL about this level and she is about 3 weeks into it so far.
Bryce's avatar
I've been on Dreamworld level 84 for 2 months. I'm stuck on level 215. But in my opinion, the most difficult level for me was 167. I think level 167 and level 211 should switch places. I had no trouble with levels 165, 181, 191, 197, and 199. The episode with levels 201-215 has really been difficult. Hopefully I'll get 215 crushed soon, but as for level 84 in dreamworld, The owl has defeated me, so he can jump off all he wants to. Good riddens Odus.
Elizabeth's avatar
LEVEL 272 in the DREAM WORLD IS RIDICULOUS

Jennifer Augustus-Brandon's avatar
I finally beat level 377!!! It was very tough, if u ask me how I couldn't tell you. I am still asking myself why is this game so additive.
Molly's avatar
Level 655 is a huge challenge. But out of the entire game, Level 421 is the worst!!!
Kathy Shaw Banda's avatar
I am starting 428.. Having some trouble here. 425 was very irritating but got through it in one evening. Don't know what I'll do when I get to last level!
vtswan's avatar

Maureen Lewis's avatar
I am struggling with level 470. Any help?
Kimberly Torch's avatar
The most difficult level for me was level 677....way too little moves to begin with and too many combos needed. All this with the added pleasure of constant bombs to tend to. I finally passed this devil level.. waiting at level 680 now for the next crazy episode to begin :-)
H Zammit's avatar

Christine Combs's avatar
That's where I am stuck. Can't even get close! I think there's no hope without spending money on boosters. And probably a lot of money.
Waqas Chauhdry's avatar
Thomas im stuck on 664 , i am hell fed up with this stage as for last one month i am not able to do so
Jai Kumar's avatar
i'm also on 677 since 20 days or more :/
jeyakumar's avatar
I cleared this level after 21 days. used one hammer to clear this level. But u really need luck and some boosters like hammer and switch candy. try it. dont quit.
Maria HD's avatar
Not yet. Damn level's a curse!
Pan's avatar
I got through it in 2 days. I just concentrated on getting the combos in the middle first instead of trying to free up the ones on the side, those ones end up coming free that way anyway and make it easier to get more combos. Goodluck!
Christine Combs's avatar
Stuck on 677 for quite awhile now. Not even getting close.
