Royal Match Gets Harder >Level 7100 [130,000 Coins]

Royal Match Gets Harder

As some may know, I’ve been grinding Royal Match to get into the Royal League ASAP. Levels had been a breeze and I was able to amass a ton of free coinage, at one point sitting on a hefty +140,000 Gold Coins.

That was until I hit somewhere around the 7100 level mark when suddenly the puzzles felt more challenging.

But I’m not here to complain. It’s definitely a net positive because things were a little too easy.

Anyway, let me share the new obstacle that’s causing my current financial stagnation.

Royal Match Does Get Harder! New Obstacles and Challenges

Before I discuss the increased difficulty, it’s worth explaining that Royal Match is generally easier to play once you’ve built up a surplus of free coins.

Having loads of cash means you can buy your way out of trouble and retain that ever-so-precious Super Light Ball.

I’ve already shared my tips on how to play Royal Match, so I won’t rehash it.

Of course, 140K is a great wad of cash to have in a pinch, but even that could quickly disappear, as I was finding out.

I had initially hoped to reach 200K before coming on here to offer some more tips, but the game wasn’t having it.

So instead, I’ve decided to share an account update and expose the new obstacle that seems to have caused a flux in my free coinage extraction technique.

It’s this thingy (The Blue Diamond Counters Box):

Royal Match - Blue Boxes Diamond Countdown 2

“A” = Blue Diamonds you have to trigger to complete the countdown in box “B”.

The good news is that tile-swapping next to Blue Diamonds (“A”) will trigger them, meaning they don’t need to be hit with Boosters.

However, the bad news is that only one of the larger “B” boxes will countdown at a time, as seen below…

As you can see in diagram “1”, both larger boxes are at “20”.

In the next frame, the top box has been reduced to “9” (by triggering the smaller Blue Diamond boxes).

In the final frame, the top box has been fully uncovered.

Once the large blue boxes are uncovered, you then have to break through 5 additional layers, slowly carving out a Pharaoh Dog’s head:

This new mechanism can be quite challenging as you try to trigger the Blue Diamonds enough to countdown all of the larger boxes in the puzzle.

OK, here’s a quick review of my F2P account. First, let’s revisit the data from my last account review:

Last Review (May 2024)

Account birth: 08/2023
Gold Coins: 59028
Pre-game Boosters: 128 Rockets, 240 TNTs, 10 Light Balls
In-Game Boosters: 8 Royal Hammers, 9 Arrows, 7 Cannons, 7 Jester Hats
First Try Wins: 6262
Helps made: 1074
Helps received: 69
Current Area: 82
Current Level: 6383

And now, the current data:

Current Stats (June 2024)

Account birth: 08/2023
Gold Coins: 130406
Pre-game Boosters: 183 Rockets, 374 TNTs, 2 Light Balls
In-Game Boosters: 8 Royal Hammers, 3 Arrows, 4 Cannons, 3 Jester Hats
First Try Wins: 7495
Helps made: 1259
Helps received: 69
Current Area: 95
Current Level: 7670

The major difference is the amount of Gold Coins; up from 59,028 to 130,048.

But it would have been much more had I not pressed ‘Play On’ so many times!

My final thoughts:

I’m on the cusp of the Royal League and will write about it when I arrive.

It seems, for now, that I’ve made it past the Blue Counter levels, but at a cost of well over 10,000 gold coins!

Now then, what in the hell is this…

    1. Hey Ariana, yes I’m still getting them sporadically but hopefully they won’t take centre stage again. I’m happy to be storing coins again. Congrats on 8000, when you get there!

  1. Hi
    Hope you don’t mind me asking. How did you accumulate over 100,000 gold coins, did you buy them?
    I have spent so much money, that it is ridiculous🥹
    I am at level 8801 on my first royal league and as per usual, many times need to play on but cannot justify the spend! I have bought the smaller packages and sometimes just coins on their own, but they don’t last, I think it sometimes makes me waste them and want to rush through the levels!
    Any help will be very much appreciated.

    Those blue counter obstacles are a pain 😟

    1. Of course, Shazel. I’m trying to share my Royal Match strategies on my blog and have an entire section over here.

      I wrote about earning free coins in this post too.

      And, I’m writing a post as we speak about the King’s Cup (I now have 146K free coins, -it was over 150K but it fluctuates).

      In my opinion, the amount I’ve managed to amass allows me to lose/spend coins to extend games when needed without having to worry about losing the Super Light Ball (which is the key).

      Also, I do love puzzle-strategy games and am quite aggressive about completing levels, as detailed in my Royal Match Tips.

      All that said, I’m still not in the Royal League and things may change for me once there. I’m currently on level 8275.

      I hope something listed above is helpful in some way. Thank you for finding my blog!

  2. Hi! I’ve read a few of your posts and agree with all of your strategies! I started playing this game in January this year and entered into the Royal League when it was still 7700 levels and very quickly spent all of my coins and boosters! It was surprisingly hard to pass through without spending any money and I kind of lost patience waiting for hearts so I created a 2nd account. This time around I’m smarter about accumulating coins and currently have over 380k coins and I’m on level 7169. I’ve learnt some strategies from you so thank you so much for sharing! I don’t enjoy losing my Super Light Ball so have spent more time playing on my 2nd account now. I look forward to your blog when you get into the Royal League 🤩

    1. Hey Catherine! I’m in the Royal League now and am currently playing through my second League.

      The first time round, I was completely robbed! But I’ve been working on a strategy to mitigate the sometimes ridiculous aggression of the RL.

      I’ll be publishing that soon. Thank you for the support, I really appreciate it!

      1. Yes!!! Haha! Me too!! I was fully robbed the first time!! Looking forward to your post soon! Most of my team mates are all in the Royal League, so I’ll share your upcoming post with them too 😁
