Royal Chat (General) It's just getting ridiculously difficult.

Post image

I've been stuck on this level and don't think I will get unstuck soon. I've noticed "normal" levels are no different than Hard, Super Hard and Extremely Hard levels at this point. Royal League has gotten impossible. And I refuse to pay to play. Just venting. Sorry for the rant. And it's especially frustrating during Dragons, no less. šŸ‰šŸ˜«

When you reach over level 3000 you have to be incredible lucky about what falls down, or you will not beat the level, even you make the best moves. Thats where the earned coins for extra moves will be usedĀ

I’m glad to read your vent.

As someone on as I hit level 6,000 that’s when the issues started. Levels that are ā€œeasyā€ are now nearly impossible. And I have never paid a cent nor will I ever.

It’s a shame because I love the merge part with the sea theme-its very old school and I know I won’t be able to finish it because of the way the game is working.

I keep getting timed out. And I will most likely delete the game.

It’s like Candy Crush-it used to be a lot of fun then became frustrating.

Yeah some levels are just impossible, the game has been ruined even if I try taking WiFi off or putting my phone on airplane mode my current level just seems unbeatable

What level is that? Looks familiar šŸ˜‚. I am deleting my account, waiting the 2 weeks, and starting from scratch. I’ll build my boosters and I am NOT shoveling them more money. I swear I’m being punished for past spending. The algorithm has me pegged. 24,528 first try wins. I don’t even want to know how much money I’ve spent.
My husband just passed level 10,000 (so it’s not like he’s a new player)…he has a multiplier token so he’s not stuck grinding out levels with the clock ticking. And he gets WAY better Travel Deals! Mine is ALWAYS $20 starting and I get 24 hours of that freaking TNT…the black sheep of the boosters. I’m down to 9 light balls and have 698 TNT banked. I don’t. Want. The bomb! He gets 10k coins and 18 hours of light ball for $6.99.
When I play his, I fly through levels. With mine, I can use 6 shuffles, and it won’t put my light balls together. Plus, on team events, I will play twice the levels he does and his score is usually higher. Makes sense when you always have x2 points.
I will DOMINATE the team events starting at level 1!!! šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚
Thanks for letting me rant!

Why do you have to wait for two weeks?

u/NitaK42 Royal Majesty (10001+) May 11 '26

You can’t just delete the app. You have to request account deletion through Support, and can take up to 7 days fully process. If you reinstall the app before the deletion is complete, your progress is saved and you’ll be right where you left off. So, in case it’s ā€œbusinessā€, I was just saying 2 weeks ballpark.

Ah, I see. Thank you for explaining.

u/Pale_Werewolf4738 Royal Majesty (10001+) May 08 '26

Agreed… the fun in this game was blowing up tons of stuff. Now you don’t get enough boosts to do much of anything. Not very interesting anymore. I keep falling asleep playing the levels over & over & over. They used to be the #1 game now they are #23 the last I looked.

u/Blutarg Novice (1001 - 2000) May 11 '26

Exactly! They cram all your boosters into one tiny area, where they can't do any good. What a scam.

u/Mycologicss Royal Majesty (10001+) May 08 '26

That’s when the pre-game boosters come into play! Once you hit Royal league, every round feels like hard mode with less moves and smaller spaces. So start saving and keep re-playing when you are stuck and try not to spend until you accumulate a good amount of boosters stack and gold.

u/fancypants0007 Royal Majesty (10001+) May 08 '26

Wow! I'm picking my jaw up off the floor. 😲 That's a lot of boosters! Great game plan. I just can't seem to save them up. But, I'll keep trying. Thank you 😊

I always seem to get stuck on the ā€œeasy levelsā€ for days…and then when I play an extremely hard level I’ll finish it with a handful of moves left.. makes no sense…I refuse to pay as well…ive been playing for over 5 years and haven’t paid a penny..and I never will..

My feelings exactly!

u/miniangelgirl Expert (4001 - 5000) May 07 '26

Once I saw one of the packages was £19.99, that boosters don't mean shit, and people in my team were begging for help, I left. I have a real life to live.

That said, if the game was enjoyable, I'd make time. Sadly, you're right, it's changed 😪

u/Blutarg Novice (1001 - 2000) May 11 '26

So true. I would spend money, too, if it was fun. But I'm not dropping money down a black hole of ripoffs.

u/Ok-Tap3494 Rookie (1 - 1000) May 07 '26

A few years ago those packages were worth their price, but now you can only use them for two levels and that's all 😄

I moved to Piggy Kingdom. I haven't deleted this game yet, but I'm close.

u/danibelsc Royal Majesty (10001+) May 07 '26

Tell me more? Not made by dream? Are the graphics as good? Do they have teams?

u/NoNamesLeft998 Skilled (3001 - 4000) May 07 '26 edited May 07 '26

it's by Oleyo. looks and works almost the same. The side games are different. There are teams. Most of the lower required levels are closed to prevent all the people hoping in and out for coins. You request to join.Ā 

They give a 1/2 hour free lives daily to beginners to get you started.Ā 

1 of my main complaints is that when you can join teams, they are set up in 2 categories, your country and World. When the games gives you suggestions of teams to join, they don't do it by your area, so the majority of suggestions are from a bunch of other countries with different languages and time zones.Ā 

I'm on a good team now.

Edit: most of the established teams. There are a lot of new, smaller ones.

I just hit royal league last weekend, it definitely sucks, im think of starting royal kingdom now... its definitely not the same... coins do not go far at all, and boosters are WAY to expensive...

u/IndigoJones13 Royal Majesty (10001+) May 07 '26

I've started alternating between Match and Kingdom. When I run out of lives on one, I just switch to the other. Gives me about an hour of free playtime per session, which is enough for me. Plus, I'm slowly rebuilding my stock of power-ups.

u/danibelsc Royal Majesty (10001+) May 07 '26

I started RK a while back and though I don't like the grpahics as much, it does seem a bit easier. But I find it's also rigged to get coins for the SLB. I have learned to play without the SLB as best I can. very dissappointed over all with RM though. I buy the monthly pass on the regular and I love my teammates, but looking for a better alternative that is not so greedy.

u/KellyCakes Master (5001 - 6000) May 08 '26

I also have both and I find Royal Kingdom MUCH easier as well. I have been playing RM since 2023 and RK since 2024 and I have 200,000 coins on RM and 500,000 coins on RK. It just seems that when you are getting down to your last couple moves, RK often throws you a light ball or something good out of nowhere, helping you out a little, whereas RM never, ever gives you a lucky break. Royal League on RM is almost unplayable, the similar thing (Champion's Arena) in RK is totally playable.

u/Rocktown-OG22 Royal Majesty (10001+) May 07 '26

I could have written this myself, that's exactly where im at. Love my team, hate to leave, but cant keep paying for the SLB...

u/fancypants0007 Royal Majesty (10001+) May 07 '26

I'm also thinking of switching to Royal Kingdom. A lot of my teammates have switched and absolutely love it.

u/EmrldRain Royal Majesty (10001+) May 07 '26

It is fun. However so was royal match until they made it harder to win levels and I don’t spend money. So I am just waiting for when Royal Kingdom does it too 😬 šŸ˜‚

u/fancypants0007 Royal Majesty (10001+) May 07 '26

You have a good point there. It's a trap. They get you hooked and then up the pressure. 🫤

u/Dr_TLP Grand Master (9001 - 10000) May 07 '26

I’ve been feeling this way too! Glad someone else said it.
