    While I'm semi-addicted to Candy Crush (damn you frustratingly random sweets), I only play on FB, so it doesn't cost me a penny.

    The only downside is that I can't save the free lives that are waiting for me when I have a full set :( On the plus side, it means that I can only have five goes at a level when I get home, and then I have to do something useful :) )

    The thing that made me happiest yesterday was clearing 7 levels after getting past one that had me stuck for a few days :o

    doesn't cost anything on the phone/ipad either if you don't want it to :confused:

    Don't have a smartphone or an iPad. No cost for the game, no need to buy power ups.

    I'm merely pointing out that it doesn't cost on them either, it's exactly the same as on fb.

    I had that - make sure you're connected to Facebook. That sorts it!

    Hang on, I'm confused. I have only ever played this game on my iphone before but for the first time in ages I logged into my facebook on my laptop tonight and decided to play Candy Crush on the laptop via facebook. However, I noticed that I have some boosters available - 1 striped/wrapped combo, 2 jelly fish and 3 jazzies to be precise. Where did these come from? I certainly didn't buy them. And why don't they show up when I'm playing it on my iphone?

    I think you get one-off boosters for using your facebook account and also for using the app as well. you also get occasional boosters as you progress through the chapters - maybe because you haven't logged on for a while, it's stored them all up

    No - have at it. I used all mine fairly sharpish and found i could have done with them on later levels.

    Level 133 is bugging me at the moment. It has a generous amount of moves for what the task actually is, there aren't really that many jellies to clear, but for some reason I just can't do this level!

    I'm on 339, there are only about 20 levels after that.

    So how long did it take you to get there and do you have any tips?

    A "tip" on this game would be like telling a player they have to avoid the ghosts on pacman ..

    I've never heard of this game, I'll check it out!

    I'm currently addicted to an online pictionary type app game called Charadium. It's sooo good.

    I must check this out , I am addicted to 4pics 1 word but waiting for update is painfully slow- my sis in law has iphone and got update days ago- no android update yet :(
