I beat the second level. On the third I spent 330 coins for a 3 pack of lightning bolts which is 3 per game. I used them all up in all three lives and the best I did was 30, 000 points short again. Either remove the paper and chains or get rid of one color. Frustrating is not fun!

The key word is LUCK. Nothing's more annoying than matching threes until you run out of moves and you are 30,000 points short. And that was with three lightning bolts! Watching paint dry is this much fun!!

I just kept playing it till I got lucky and got lightning bolts and matched them up with the exploding stars or the arrow pieces. Took me almost a month.

Same here, how did you get through it ?

I can't beat Paris level 25-3. I need to beat this level in order to receive the last collar, so I can get the pink gems, so I can build Pantheon, so that I can finally move past level 30. Ughhh.
