Looks like there's nothing after level 516

[Mario_1970]

The level 516 is just impossible: two seperates levels of dirts to destroy, wit a total of 14 rows, including a chain needing 35 purple jewels destroyed to start with and doom jewels... You would expect 60-70 moves to do this, well you have only 35!
So clearly the next levels are not ready yet and Team Lava leaves you stranded at 516 till they are.

There are more levels after 516. For this level, getting column blasters, bombs and diamonds would help clear the chains and other obstacles.

Rephrase: Looks like you may need a lot of money to pass this level. For those not willing to spend real money on it, it may just be the end. Has anyone passed this leve as yet? With or without spending real money on bombs and blasters etc? If so, ow many of each did you have to use?

Well I'm not using money, and the level is not doable in 35 moves, that I know. In a very lucky attempt I had a number of diamonds, blasters, bombs, and still got short by 6 rows... I would probably need another 25 moves to finish it. Any level of this difficulty would usually grant 60 or 70 moves and STILL be difficult to achieve... 35 moves is a joke.
End of the game for me.

The JM Regions master thread (http://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?51491-Jewel-Mania-Regions-Master-Thread-(Updated-2-5-14)) is not only a good place to check for threads, it's also a great way to see what levels are ahead...

Also, just wanted to mention someone already started a thread for level 516...find it here (http://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?65440-516) (or just a couple rows under this one in this forum's thread list, lol! ;) ;)) Others feeling your pain!

516 sounds really tough--I'm not looking forward to it at all!!! I'm still stuck in Puppy Driveway (so many timed levels & doom jewels!) Anyway, I hope they add some moves to 516 soon!

I have reached my threshold for pain with level 516! I've been trying to pass it for weeks and came to the same conclusion my other fellow jewel-maniacs did -- the level the way it is right now is absolutely IMPOSSIBLE!!! I got so frustrated with it I basically quit the game; I either replay previous fun levels trying to improve my stars or more often "*****" on it by discovering other match-3 games :o I hope they will make changes to it very soon or it looks like there will be a riot on the forums LOL ;)

[guitarflash]

what about the players who do not use the money to play?? just hoping to give a gift of gold.
more than a month this level could not be finished... :(

I agree, impossible to pass this level with 35 moves. Even with 55 moves it would be hard....

[Mario_1970]

And here we go, after 6 months of stubbornness, Team Lava has finally understood that this level was impossible without paying for extras and that people who download a free game DO NOT want to pay for extras. Funnily enough they have now granted 60 moves instead of 35, just like I suggested in the first place. THANK YOU!

Lol, finally! ;) There's more info at the main thread for 516 (and the other Sapphire Suburb (http://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?65949-Sapphire-Suburb-Levels-511-516-(Region-86)) island levels...)
