A wrapped and striped combo above the meringue and licorice swirl block wall can give you a head start on this level, if you can get it in place. The five colour bombs locked at the bottom are hard to reach – but don’t worry. As you play through the level, you’ll make more colour bombs in the field of play when you start setting off whichever ones you’ve managed to free up.

If you’re having difficulty unlocking the colour bombs even when the licorice block has been removed, use any colour bomb you have to remove the colour of candy above the colour bomb – which will free it from the marmalade.

The 8-move time bombs can be tricky here – use your colour bomb to diffuse them if you can, or try to get a special candy nearby to take them out.

In Candy Crush Saga level 317 you need to collect all orders and score 10,000 points.

Level 317 required you to activate 6 color bombs. However, the board is an awkward shape for making good matches and there are only 35 moves available. There are five color bombs on the board though, but these are right at the bottom, under marmalade, with a licorice swirl blocker and then a triple layered meringue. They are also difficult to reach as they have gaps either side of them. There are also bomb makers on two columns and licorice swirl makers in two.

In order to succeed in the level you will need to release the color bombs at the bottom of the board. This means that you will need to work on breaking through the blockers and setting them off. You will also need an additional color bomb from somewhere too. You will need to watch for bombs as well as they will only give you eight moves before they destruct. All special candies can be useful in level 317 if positioned so that they can remove the blockers or set off the color bombs. There is a lot of luck in this level to be able to get the matches so that you can complete it.

Some boosters may be useful. You get the option of a lucky candy, color bomb or wrapped and striped pair at the beginning and any of these could be useful. The bomb cooler could be very useful and the sweet tooth and even the switch and lollipop hammer if used at the right time. However, level 317 is more about being lucky enough and observant enough to make the right matches to win.
