Seoul - Level Help

I have 9/10 samurai swords or whatever they are. I've spent hundreds of coins on boosts and nothing. How is this one done? I'm not shipping 2,000,000 blue hats. ALSO... does it get easier after this city? I mean at least reasonable? If not I'm done with Gummy Drop. Its just not fun to play for a few minutes and lose every time.

Weatherup, do you do the reloading of the level till you get the best layout? Or do you just play it as it loads each time? If so, you will use your lives far quicker than reloading till you get a great layout, that gives you far more chance of getting the level completed. And the best way to get that one out, is to get a lightning bolt to start with, and if you can get it next to a piece of litter/paper, hit that with the bolt and remove all the papers, then you need another bolt to combine with a line crush or bomb to release all the souvenirs if they aren't already released. It is possible. You should not have to spend a heap of coins on it though. Try starting it by using a bolt and a combo which you choose before you open the level up, that should get a long way towards doing it, even though it will be using two boosts. Take time to make the best matches and get more bolts etc and you will get it out. If it got right to the last move and all you needed was one shovel, or wind of change, then use that to do it and its over and done with and you can get the millions of blues and move on. Good luck.

And ckaywin5, Tokyo 100 is a risk, but a far simpler level to get all three (bricks, blues and pinks) is Rome 87. You get around 40,000 of each, every time, and it doesn't take long to build up to buy a heap of green gems (not diamonds). Keep using Rome 87 for this purpose from here until you eventually get to Istanbul. Once you have got there and passed 105-1, thats the only one you will need from there on as it gets double of all 3 that Rome 87 does and its easy.

Thanks Jules! I finally won it, yay! I did try for the best layouts which helps but as with most of these levels it's in the luck of how the pieces fall more than anything. I was able to zap a sticky with a Z and got two more Zs almost immediately. I ended up winning with about 15 moves left over. Now I'm on 80 (70s were not too bad). I'm going to need a boost here I think.

Thanks again JULES!

Not sure what's up, things have been a little glitchy today since the new update!

Weatherup, I would only start to play level 87 when you get a layout that makes a 'Z' on move one (thats easier than saying a lightning bolt!) and then uf you can, get a bomb or line crush next to it, but use it to decimate the board. If you take out even one colour, it will make the board crumble a lot quicker, the faster that happens, the sooner you can get it clear and the score up. But its not too bad. I somehow did it 3 times.

Weatherup, did you mean to ask a further question or make a post in the post above, as all it seems to have done is repost what I wrote with nothing added. Maybe you meant to add something?

Thanks jules, I must have been doing something wrong. Seems to be OK now.

I'm up to local 96-3.

All I can say about Seoul is nothing I can say here! I've finished 100 so there is some light at the end of the tunnel.

I'm able to clear the board of tiles but am consistently 10,000 + points short of the 100,000 needed.

Which is the preferred boost for this annoying little level?

I just had a look at 96-3, I do remember that one, took me a fair few goes at it to just get it once, it was a PAIN in the rear end that one. I think its just luck more than anything, as the post above says, keep concentrating on making the big matches to get line crushes, bombs and lightning bolts, keep using them and blasting the guts out of the gummies, you will get it, but it takes patience and good luck.

I do appreciate all the help from you guys.
Im finally on the last 10 levels at Seoul. I've played 111 six times now and can't see how to get 150,000 points. There are too many walls or blockers. Even with Zs I've only reached 100,000 one time. It's usually 50, 60 thousand though. Any suggestions, which boosts? etc. Thanks in advance!

Ok, I got this one finally. Just have to keep at it until the gummies fall the right way! Patience and many lives is how to do it.

Howdy weatherup, I finally had to pull one of your routines and scream bloody murder about a level in Shanghai! And if you've noticed, you're a starfish now when you get to 100 you'll be a real fish so keep fighting! Havana is where we come out of the "Valley of Death"!

Hey Gramps! You gotta love how the "1st responders" put up with our "requests for assistance." I have finally killed all 120 levels in Seoul + the upper helping hand. I have two levels left on the pink-gem HH. I have been playing levels in Tokyo and San Francisco, accumulating coins. I have 800 so far, to go "in for the kill" with Z and bombs!

I'm officially done with Seoul!! There were some rediculous levels. But if I can get through it anyone can. Just remember that green gems go with you as your coins do! Off to Havana!!!

Congratulations buddy, from my research it seems the first half of Havana is still on the tough side, after you cross the midway point it will be like Rome and Berlin, some toughies but not as bad as the VoD! Let me know what you think of it, you can PM me if you prefer, once again congratulations!

i also am after some help with 64-1 anything from anybody would be appreciated

The 2 HH at 103 and 107 are protected by ferociously difficult timed levels. I got to 107 haven't actually got the card but it gives me 3 million blues if I pay 1.5 million bricks. I can't get the timed level for 103 so have no idea what it might be worth. I have a spare card but would have to pay $400 to get 2 million blues and 50 greens and I don't need the greens. I am going to have to go and fulfill all the missions and the developers really went to town on difficulties in this city and my patience is wearing thin and I refuse to spend real money...

Oh my I agree
So frustrated trying to build after level 110 to get the bricks needed u need to complete too many levels at the top level
Way too difficult!!!
