Candy Crush Friends Saga Blockers and Descriptions

Blockers

Blockers are objects in the game that are in you way that can be removed. Some can have multiple layers making you have to hit them many times before they will disappear. Some blockers can help when you remove them by hitting other areas of the board and some can be a nuisance by blocking your striped candy going through them.

You don't always have to remove a blocker as it may not be in the way of the goal of that level.

Here is a listing of the current blockers and their characteristics
