These Candy Crush level 197 cheats and tips to show you how to beat level 197 of Candy Crush. The goal of level 197 is to clear all the jelly in 50 moves.
Level 197 Cheat #1: First make vertically striped candies.
- In level 197 you cannot make any moves to eliminate the jelly until you unwrap the marmalade-covered candies. So your first moves should be vertical striped special candies that will hit any of the 6 columns that contain the marmalade. Once you have broken the marmalade, you can swipe 2 wrapped candies together as a special candy combo. This will trigger a chain reaction that can explode all of the remaining wrapped candies on the board. The columns closest to the center of the board are the most effective in clearing the most jelly.
Level 197 Cheat #2: Focus moves on the bottom.
- After you have utilized all the wrapped candies on the bottom half of the board by following tip number 1, you should hopefully have a high number of moves left and a pretty decent amount of jelly and meringues cleared. Your main focus should now on making as many moves as you can on the bottom of the board. Making moves at the top can waste moves, and it is difficult to position special candies and combos in useful ways. Even making regular 3 candy matches will keep opening the meringues in order to clear the jelly stuck in the border. Ideally you want to special candy combos in the bottom of the board, but if you can’t just make any moves you can until a special candy opportunity appears.
Level 197 Cheat #3: Use the best special candy combos.
- The best special candy combos to use in Candy Crush Level 197 depends on which half of the board you in. The sprinkle candy + striped candy combo can help you on either side of the board, so if you have no moves on the bottom this is a good combo to make.
- A wrapped candy and striped candy combo is very good at the bottom of the board since it will hit all rows and columns that contain jelly. Activate this combo on the far right and left hand sides of the bottom, since it will clear the most jelly with one hit, and the hardest pieces of jelly to clear are at the far edges of the board.
- A wrapped candy + striped candy combo will help you on the top and the bottom of the board, but it isn’t worth wasting moves to get this special candy combo at the top of the board. It will only clear 3 columns with 1 hit.

Candy Crush Level 197 Video
Level 197 is a Jelly level, one of five level types in Candy Crush Saga. Your objective is to clear all the jelly in 50 moves. In order to complete a Jelly level, you must remove all of the jelly on the board. You remove jelly from the board by making a match with a piece of candy on top of the jelly. In the higher levels, you can sometimes get stuck on double jelly levels. On those you have to make two matches on top of a square of jelly in order to clear it from the board! We’ve got all the tips to beat jelly levels you need here at candy crush cheats!
How To Beat Jelly Levels:
- Your only objective in jelly levels is to clear the jelly. That means you should only be worried about making matches on top of the jelly, and not other parts of the board.
- If you can’t make a match on top of the jelly, try using jelly fish! Jelly fish act like normal candies in that you match them with other candies of the same color. But when you make a match with a jelly fish, its will activate and swim off the screen. Then three new jelly fish will swim on screen and eat three jelly squares. For double jelly squares, this will count as one match. If jelly is stuck under a blocker that isn’t licorice, the jelly fish will still eat the jelly from under the blocker.
- Jelly squares at the top of the board and at the corners can be tricky, since these are the hardest spot to match candies. Watch out for these, and try to clear the board first.
- When you clear all the jelly from the level, you will get a sugar crush. This will give you a ton of points.
