Strange Updates

4 Sep

The last three updates for Candy Crush on the iPad were very strange with the earlier two saying Bonkers Bakery was opening but I don’t see it. I scrolled and look, thinking I may have missed something and even jumped over to Dreamworld to check but nothing and find myself still at the end of Fizzy Falls.

Could it be the new chapter after Fizzy Falls? On Facebook, I have completed Fizzy Falls a while back and the new chapter, Crunchy Courtyard, finally opened on Facebook last night. So Bonkers Bakery is indeed not the new one but a quick check again on Candy Crush Wiki listed Bonkers Bakery in Dreamworld. Oh well, I stopped playing Dreamworld for sometime already.

Back to Crunchy Courtyard, I quickly obtained my tickets and am now at Level 677, which is a good thing because Level 451 in Farm Heroes has proved to be the mother of all frustrations! Stuck there for so long, Candy Crush is now providing solace.

Why Am I Still At It?

27 Jun
I can't send SOS for tickets

I can’t send SOS for tickets!

Level 578 in Candy Crush has been very trying and bordered on being a dreaded task to go through. So why am I still at it? I don’t know, I ask myself that too, constantly. Sometimes my obsession with this game is just… just so obsessive.

Despite the constant frustration, I persisted to battle the ridiculous (for lack of a better word) level of 578. Then amazingly, when I least expected it, I conquered the level. Yay! On a roll, I completed the Wafer Windmill yesterday. I am now just waiting for the new chapter to open up in Facebook, which I don’t understand why I cannot send out help to ask for tickets, when the next chapter is clearly visible on the map. Something is not right. Hmm… I guess I have to be patient.

The recent update makes no difference to me as it opened up only more levels for Dreamworld which I have stopped playing. And all this time, while attempting Level 578 and beyond, I was limited to using the laptop at home because the iPad is still showing me at Gummy Gardens, the previous chapter. So it’s an achievement of sorts given the restricted playing time that I have.

Cute Can Be Mean

14 Feb

I have been playing Farm Heroes lately. The sweet candies and Odus from Dreamworld in Candy Crush has lost to the cute cropsies. Despite my peeking into Candy Crush on the laptop, I find myself lacking the spirit and zest to go on in the game. Best to maintain my retired status, an achievement of sorts.

Now with Farm Heroes, my main play time on it is on my iPad Mini. The last few exasperations were overcomed and I have zoomed on until Level 111. The cropsies have been acting mean again, not cute at all. I have tried my best at this level in order to gain enough power to defeat Rancid Raccoon but just can’t until I played the game in the office! Shhh….

It was a busy day at the office and towards the evening when all was done, I felt I needed a break and went into Farm Heroes. Now my office Mac desktop is weird. On one hand it does not support Candy Crush, citing my Adobe Flash Player is not updated but it can support Farm Heroes, which works out fine now, considering where my focus is at now.

One game only at Level 111 and I am through! Woohoo… I guess Odus will dream on hoping for me to join him in Dreamworld.

I’ve Lost My Candy Mojo

4 Feb

So it’s been a month plus that I stopped playing Candy Crush. Out of curiosity, I peeked into the game in Facebook on the laptop to see if there’s any updates, only to discover an exclamation mark on Odus. This was last week and only on the game in Facebook (the app on the iPad just got updated yesterday).

What’s this? So into Dreamworld I ventured. Indeed there was an update but only in Odus’ world. And of course, I started crushing some candies.

To my horror, I discovered I’ve lost my candy mojo! Gone were my skills to strategize and conquer, let alone play! Aiyoh… This is not good. Maybe I should come out of retirement to focus on Dreamworld to sharpen my skills in preparation for the main saga’s long awaited eventual update.

Candy Withdrawal

6 Jan

Even since I completed Candy Crush at the end of last year and officially retired from it on January 1st, I feel as though I am experiencing some withdrawal symptoms. For five consecutive days, I have not played the game in Facebook on the laptop; although I still go in to help my fellow candy crushers by sending them lives and tickets, this does not count as playing. Even on the iPad, Dreamworld has lost its appeal. So what I am doing to occupy my time? I have been reading as there’s nothing else to play (besides Zookeeper Battle) before I go to sleep!

The last few nights, I decided to give my favorite author, Nora Roberts, my devotion again and have been reading the MacGregor series online into the wee hours of the night. Now I don’t know if this is good or not because in the mornings, I wake up with a splitting headache from a lack of deep sleep.

As a result, I feel grumpy. And irritated. And tired. Can’t be Nora’s fault since her books are always so captivating. Definitely withdrawal symptoms from lack of candies. Hrmph.

Done with Candy Crush?

17 Dec

Yesterday, I reached Level 500 of Candy Crush in Facebook and should be completing it anytime soon. And for Dreamworld, its subset game, on the same day too I completed Level 65 and now, have to wait for the update. But do I want to? Does this mean I am officially retiring from the game?

The end is here

To go on or not??

Then again, I do hope an update will be soon or else I have nothing to play! I can’t seem to get into the Papa Pear Saga, it’s just not the same. As for Zookeeper Battle, I have also lost some steam in my efforts after completing my 3000th battle. Sigh.
