Crazy Cake Swap is a new matching game by Zynga for the iOS and Android platforms. Your goal here is to navigate from level to level, beat them by matching cakes, and to overcome all kinds of other obstacles. You can even put your face on the baker and play the game with your friends. Read on for some tips and tricks for Crazy Cake Swap!
The special pieces in this game can be activated by making a match of four or five in a row, five in an L- or T- or +-shape, or by making a 2×2 block of pieces. Four in a row makes a line-clearing piece, while five in a shape makes a bomb piece and five in a row makes a rainbow piece, which clears out all of one color. 2×2 makes a frosting pepper piece that, when tapped, automatically clears out a space that leads to your goal.
Even better than merely using a special piece is to mix two of the special pieces together. Do this for varying effects- for example, mixing two bombs makes a 5×5 blast, and mixing a line and a bomb makes a huge blast that takes out a 3-wide line horizontally and vertically. Mixing two rainbow pieces together blows up the entire stage. Mixing a special piece of another kind with a rainbow piece turns all pieces of the same color into that special piece, which can be even more effective than the two-rainbow mix.
After the first two hours of the game, your lives will go to 5. If you want to get more lives, you have to wait for half an hour, or to circumvent that, you can ask your friends on Facebook for more lives. In addition, you can also set the time ahead on the phone or tablet that you are playing on, in order to get more lives right away without having to ask people.
One unique feature of the game, which goes with Zynga’s social core values, is that you can ask your friends for help on beating a level. They will then be able to play the level for you. If your friends ask for help on beating a level, you can do the same thing for them.
Gold is the premium currency of the game. Right now, the only known way to get more gold is to purchase it off of the in-app purchase store. As the game ages and more updates are added to it, expect special events that will give you the opportunity to win more gold without having to buy it using real-life money.
