Color Bomb is one of the special candies in Candy Crush Soda Saga that was brought from the original game Candy Crush Saga. It is formed by matching five or more candies of the same colour in a row or column. When formed, it gives the player at least 200 points. Color Bomb is the fourth special candy introduced in the game.
Properties[]
It is made of a chocolate ball with rainbow sprinkles on it. It is thought that this special candy is based on Australian treat known as a chocolate freckle. In many ways, a color bomb works the same as in Candy Crush Saga but the way it works in combos is different, which usually more powerful.
Colour Bomb is quite unlike other candies because it can be swapped with any candy on the board not captured in a blocker. 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. If it is destroyed it will pick a candy colour with the most candies 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.
It is easy to form a color bomb when the board has less than 5 colors.
Strategy[]
Making a colour bomb[]
- Always take in mind that colour bombs are much harder to obtain than striped and even wrapped candies. In quadrant levels, colour bombs cannot be created at all.
- 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. Generally, you will like to lower the correct candies until they are on the same height and then go to close the gap.
- 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.
Using the colour bomb[]
- The colour bomb is considered to be one of the most powerful special candy in the game. It both removes all the candies of this colour and simplifies the board. This will bring you to great advantage in most levels in this game.
- 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.
