You do not unlock the mace during game play like some of the other powerups. If you just get a bad layout or make a few bad moves, then it may be best to save those powerups and gold bars and instead just retry the level.ĥ) Buy the morning star (mace) powerup from the blacksmith. You will want to see each area so that you can guage if it is worth spending gold on boots or using you limited powerup to try to completely clear the board. If you do not have a needed item, then focus on finding that quickly. You can always replay the level later for the ribbon.Īs soon as you see the 'All red tiles cleared' banner, move on to the next area, if you have the necessary item (ie. The goal is to be able to keep advancing, which only requires all the red tiles to be cleared. Once you past the last progeess gate around level 190-ish, then you can forget the ribbons if you want.Ĥ) Focus on removing all the red tiles first. This becomes true the farther along you get. It may be worth using a power up or boots to break that last crate or dirt, rather than having to play the entire level again. It goes without saying you should try for the ribbon on every level the first time playing a level, especially early on. I am not a fan of replaying the same level over and over just to advance. Ribbons are needed to let you pass the progress gates that stop you from continuing to higher levels, and not having the ribbon on a level forces you to replay the level multiple times. Eventually you will have plenty of gold bars, and ribbons become worth much more.

Use this as quickly as you can to maximize your matches! Refer to point 5 below.ģ) At the early stages of the game, gold bars are worth more than ribbons, because ribbons are almost automatic early on when it is easier to accomplish. Once you have earned a free powerup the game ignores any additional potion matches, meaning you are wasting them. They will come in extremely handy.Ģ) Get your Free Powerup as soon as it becomes available. You can quit until later right after, but you will need to stock pile as many powerups, keys, bonuses, etc. While not directly related to solving the puzzles, I wanted to add a tip or two in case it helps you out.ġ) Even if you are not in the mood to play, make it a habit to start the game up and grab the daily reward.
