Candy Crush Saga Level 228 - Episode 16: Crunchy Castle

Tips & Strategies

Written by our expert Candy Crush players

Horizontal Striped Candies are Key.

Because of the setup of the level, ingredients can only drop down in the middle column. The middle column is isolated and the bottom is surrounded by chocolate fans. Horizontal striped candies can take out a row at a time so they are one of the most effective weapons you have.

Utilize the Low Amount of Colored Candies.

There are only 4 different colored candies in this level, so it is easier to make special candies . Try to combine the special candies to make power-ups and clear more space on the board. The best combination is a color bomb and a striped candy combo because whatever the color of the striped candy is, every other candy on the board of the same color will turn into a striped candy and wipe out most of the board.

Keep the Chocolate at Bay.

The chocolate fans in the middle are poorly placed and keep spewing chocolate. These chocolates can also clog up the middle column where the ingredients are supposed to fall. Use horizontal candies to eliminate the chocolate squares and if it's too congested, use combinations of special candies .

Candy Crush Level 228 Video

Level 228 is an ingredients level, one of five level types in Candy Crush Saga. Your objective is to bring the ingredients down and score 30,000 points in 35 moves. The level type first appears in level 11 and has now made over 150 appearances. In order to complete an ingredients level, a player must bring down the shown amount of ingredients to the bottom of the board. There two types of ingredients are cherries an hazelnuts. For every one collected, a player will receive 10,000 points.

How to Beat Ingredients Levels:

  • Wrapped candies will do fairly well for ingredients as well. These special candies will crush a large cluster of candies. Therefore, the wrapped candy should be used close to or directly below an ingredient.
  • Color bombs can also made a big impact in ingredient levels. For example, you can use one to remove a candy immediately blocking your ingredient or you can combine it with a striped candy to pretty much guarantee your ingredient's exit.
  • Striped candies are your best friends in ingredients levels. The reason behind this is that when they are activated, they will clear out an entire row(horizontal) or column(vertical) on the board. However, since vertically striped candies clear an entire column, they are far and away the best weapon in this level type. Always try to ensure that vertically striped candies and your ingredients are in the same column. When they are, the vertically striped candy will clear drop the ingredient in one swift and efficient move. For better results, align multiple candies in the same column.
  • As you progress further into the game, you will see your ingredients path to the bottom more and more obstructed by various blockers. To combat this, especially at the bottom, make sure to shift your ingredient to the a clear row or column.

Bonus Tip: Ingredient Drop Path
