Candy Crush Saga is a very popular match-3 game, played by millions of people worldwide. This highly addictive game keeps on getting better with each update that the developers introduce. With this being said, let's look at how many levels there are currently.
All Current Levels

There is an amazing total of over 16,500 levels in Candy Crush Saga. These levels are grouped into more than 1,000 different episodes.
This naturally means that the difficulty of CandyCrush Saga grows exponentially with each episode completed.
Each episode has 15 levels except for Candy Town and Candy Factory, which only have 10 levels each.
Level Objectives in Candy Crush Saga
At the beginning of the game, the objectives of each level are relatively easy to accomplish.
You need to complete the objective such as clearing the Jelly or releasing the dragons within the allotted moves to advance to the next level.
Level Screen and Level Boosters
On your level screen, you will be able to see your star meter, remaining moves, objectives remaining, and your available boosters.
Boosters are great for accomplishing the task at hand. Here are some examples of the Candy Crush Saga boosters that are available and what they do:
| Name: | Effect: |
![]() Switch Candies | You can switch two candies of your choice without losing a move. |
![]() UFO | Will create 3 wrapped candies that explode once you have used this booster. You will not lose a move. |
![]() Lollipop Hammer | Smashes a selected candy of your choice. |
![]() Party Popper Booster | This clears the board and releases four special candies that explode. |
![]() Striped Brush | This allows you to paint a regular candy to become a striped candy, you can choose the direction you want the candy to explode in. |
![]() Color Bomb | Combining a Color Bomb with any candy of any color will clear all the candies of that color off the board. When you combine it with a special candy, the same applies. |
![]() Striped Candy | Depending on the direction of the stripes, they clear the whole row or column they are in when matched with the same color candies. |
![]() Extra Moves | These are extra moves for you to complete the level. This will show up after you have failed to complete a level. You can watch an ad sometimes to receive extra moves. |
![]() Wrapped Candy | This candy explodes twice, the first time when you match three or more of the same color, and the second time you will not need to match it again. You will not lose a move with the second explosion. |
![]() Jellyfish Candy | This candy spawns 3 fish that will remove three random candies with jelly on your board. If a candy happens to have another fish, this process repeats |
![]() Coconut Candy | This turns three random candies into striped candies on the board. |
These are a few of the boosters available to help you complete levels easily. Note that when you use these boosters, you will not use an additional move. These boosters can help you out of some tough levels, trust me on that!
Level Types in Candy Crush Saga
There are four different level types:
- Jelly – Clear all the jelly on the board. Jelly can be removed by matching candies on a square with jelly or by using special candies such as striped candy. This procedure needs to be repeated if it is a double jelly.
- Dragons – Bring all the gummi dragons down on the board. The dragons appear in eggs. Drop them down to the squares on the egg collector. This will enable them to break free and fly away.
- Candy Order – Collect all orders by collecting wanted items. Your order will be visible in the top center of your screen below the stars bar. If the order shows 10 green candies then you will need to collect 10 green candies. The number of items will count down as you collect them. When each section of the order is completed a tick mark will appear next to it.
- Rainbow Rapids – Clear the path to collect rainbow candies. These levels will only be available after you have made significant progress in the Candy Crush Saga.
