Lizard Marsh - Levels 331 - 336

Hmm could there be another theme to this region? let's find out! But bean dog and the kids seem to be adventuring with a bunch of swamp and marsh creatures.



Level 331... digging moves level with super dirt, black jewels, white blocks, and crates





50 moves to dig down 10 meters. Pretty standard digging level, no surprises. I've tried it a few times but haven't passed it yet. I hope i get through it by tonight!

Level 332... timed glass level with snakes, crates, and portals



1:25 on the clock to break 12 glass. There are 3 pieces under each snake (6 pieces total), 4 pieces are visible on the bottom, and the last 2 pieces are under the 2 crates. i targeted getting rid of the snakes and breaking through the crates. It can feel slow at times waiting for the jewels to fall into their places, but just try to move fast whenever possible so you have enough time to get to all the glass.

Level 333... glass moves level with walls



i think i was able to pass this level in fewer tries than level 332. but this level is pretty straight forward. all the glass is off to the sides in a separated column. so you'll need to use blasters, bomb + blaster, diamond, etc to reach the glass. or hope for some matches inside the column itself.

Level 334... digging moves level with snakes, super dirt, and black jewels





there are four 2-headed snakes and super dirt and black jewels in the center. there are also some gaps in the board that make it a bit harder to make special jewels since it gets in the way. bombs + blasters to the rescue!

Level 335... timed fire level with lock & chain



three areas of L&C: 25, 30, and 25 counts with 3 different colors. i'm not sure if it's advantageous to try to unlock one area at a time and try to contain the fire first, then move on. but whenever it comes to timed levels, i just try to move as fast as possible without regard to anything haha. so i just made matches wherever i could to get the L&C unlocked. then hoped for some blasters, bombs, diamonds to help me wipe out all the fire.

Level 336... fire moves level with crates



there are 2 areas of fire, one is completely separated off and the other area is blocked off by crates and won't spread until a crate gets broken through. if you can get one or two blasters to wipe out a column or a row of fire in the separated area, you can hope to get some matching jewels to put out more fire. i wasn't stuck here too long, which i'm happy about since fire levels can be really hard sometimes. and i'm off for some new adventuring in Jurassic Bark!

Level 331: Dig 10 meters in 50 moves (5JC.) I enjoyed this level! Got lucky and passed it on my 2nd try, but only got 1 star. Will def play again to improve that (and have more fun!)

Level 332: 12 glass in 1:35 (5JC.) Hey, this was kinda fun for a timed level! Not too stressful. Took me several tries to pass, and there were a few times I had to look around for moves (along with the reshuffle that goes along with that.) Didn't really take the time to figure out the portals on this one. I just tried to **** the snakes & break the crates as quickly as possible--both to expose the glass. I didn't use any combos on the round I passed, just kept making matches as fast as I could. Got the final glass broken with just a few seconds to spare!

Level 333: 12 glass in 45 moves (5JC.) This was quite fun, but those walls can be very tricky. I was trying to make lots of horizontal blasters to get the glass out to the sides. But so often, I'd spot a "row blaster pattern," only to find it had a wall between the jewels I needed to swap. It took several attempts, but I eventually passed this with lots of blaster + bomb combos. I also tried to start each round with a match in one of those separated areas off to the side (or another optimal move, like one that creates a special jewel, for ex.) If I didn't see a "good" match, I'd press pause, then use the back arrow button to restart the level. I only scored 1 star on this--so I'll be replaying to better my score for sure! Fun times!

Level 334: Dig 12 meters in 80 moves (5JC.) Whew, lots of snakes! Only had enough energy to try this once, and I got to 8/12 meters. Spent most of the time tripped-up in the 5 - 8 meter range--it's tough to make the right specials in there. Hopefully I'll figure some things out, and do better on my next attempt. Overall, this level's pretty fun!

*No changes to any of these levels (from the original posts & photos in this thread,) except for 332--10 seconds added.

Passed 334 on my 3rd or 4th try; it was so much fun! Lots of blaster + bomb combos, and diamonds (SO handy when you have snakes!) Unfortunately, now I've got a timed fire level (ugh!)

Level 335: 20 fire in 1:30 (5JC.) No changes since Aileeni's post, though I sure wish there was more time here! I've tried this quite a few times, now...but not getting the fire tamed at all. If you focus on the locked colors, the L&C will open fairly quickly. But then you've got so much fire to deal with, and it can get out of control SO fast. I tried just waiting for one side to open, and then try to get the fire out on that side. But there really isn't time to play around with this. Other than waiting for some lucky combos to drop into place on the board, I'm at a loss here. I guess I'll just keep practicing, hoping to get better/faster at this. But think I'll be stuck here awhile (and I really, really dislike timed fire levels!!! )

Strategy on 332, **** the snake on the above, and concentrate with the 2 crates, after that try to break the glasses, the glasses have to be break for couple times I think. Glad I passed with 3 stars, yay.... But no gold anymore on 3 stars, I wonder why? Wink wink.....

Forgot to finish the levels on this island. I had started typing them out though, and they were autosaved here. I wrote the comments below approx. Sept. 1st:

Finally passed 335 last night, using a diamond + blaster combo. While the blasters were still detonating, I kept making matches to make sure all the flames would go out. Only one star, but SO happy this is over!

Level 336: 19 fire in 30 moves (5JC.) Got lucky and passed this one on my first try. I started breaking the crates right away, moving quickly/worrying the fire was going to overtake the board. (I was still thinking about the timed fire on the prev. board, lol.) Then I realized I could pace myself, and made some blasters, then a diamond. Swapped a diamond & blaster, and it took out all but 3 flames in the area on the bottom left. And luckily, there was a perfect 3-jewel match right next to the remaining flames. Matched 'em--goal achieved! Still had 15 moves left, so I didn't get a great score (only 1 star.) But I'll def play again, cuz it was a fun level. Unfortunately, I have to wait for an energy recharge before I can check out the next island, Jurassic Bark.
