To beat the level 8463 of Candy Crush Saga we've compiled a small list of general tips that should help you along the way. While some tips are more useful than others, it's always good to be reminded of the basics.
#01 Start your candy crushing at the bottom. so that you can create chain reactions to destroy more pieces and get a bunch of points.
#02 Don't follow suggestions blindly, A lot of the time, you'll be able to find a better match on your own.
#03 If you just make every match you can see without thinking, you'll fail the harder levels.
#04 If you start a level and don't like the layout of the candies, you can back out without losing a life if you haven't made any moves.
#05 When playing a level, you can always hit the 'Quit' button to check your progress. Don't worry, this does not mean it will actually make you quit the level you are on.
#06 Matching three candies together only clears those candies, but matching four or five creates a special candy.
#07 Combos are extremely powerful. If you can maneuver special candies together, they do a whole lot more good together than they would alone.
#08 The direction you swipe your finger to create the candy matches the direction of the stripes, and the candy will clear a line horizontally or vertically that matches its stripes.
#09 If you see candies with a +5 icon, try to include them in a match. These are extra time candies, and they show up in timed levels.
