New Effect (Officially released as of Taffy Treetops) Turns every candy of that colour (including special candies and those under Liquorice Locks or Marmalade, but not including Sugar Drops) into a wrapped candy then activates them all. In effect, this combination clears two colours, and it usually scores massive amounts of points. Old Effect (Still applies in candy frog combination) Sets off the wrapped candy to clear every candy of the same colour on the board, then the colour bomb itself will clear the most abundant colour present on the board.
On iOS and Android, it does activate them. Note: This will not activate other special candies. Turns every candy of that colour (including special candies and those under Liquorice Locks or Marmalade, but not including Sugar Drops) into a striped candy in a horizontal-vertical pattern from top left along the rows and then activate them all.
In rare cases, if only two colours occupy a column, using a colour bomb on one of the colours will cause the other colour to form another colour bomb and ease your work. This will bring you to great advantage in most levels in this game. It both removes all the candies of this colour and simplifies the board. The colour bomb is considered to be the most powerful special candy in the game. It is possible, but more luck dependent, to form a colour bomb through a vertical match of five by making a horizontal match that closes the gap. Generally, you will like to lower the correct candies until they are on the same height and then go to close the gap. If there is a line of five candies, in which all but the central candy is of the same colour, and that there is a candy of this colour diagonally between both candies. Always take in mind that colour bombs are much harder to obtain than striped and even wrapped candies. This may lower the direct score of a colour bomb if lower candies are destroyed by special candies, especially if candy bombs are involved before they are targeted. If it is activated by a special candy, it can sometimes remove blockers, such as crystal candies in level 5000. This mechanism is nearly similar to two sequel Candy Crush games. When you swap a colour bomb with a regular candy or make it explode with special candies' effect, it starts to link candies by the lightning and remove all of them on the board. This special candy is generally quite weak on its own considering how hard it is to make, but when mixed with other special candies, or when the board has only 4 colours, it can create some extremely big and useful effects.Īlthough, it works differently on newer HTML5. If it is destroyed it will pick a candy colour with the most candies on the board. When swapped with candy, all of that colour on the board will be detonated, and following an update, it gives lots of points when used. Properties Ī Colour Bomb is quite unlike other candies because it can be swapped with any candy on the board not captured in a blocker. Combining a Colour Bomb with any candy of any color will clear all the candies of that colour.
