Level 43 was the eighth level in Aurora Chocorealis and the 9th moves level in Dreamworld. To pass this level, you must score at least 160,000 points in 22 moves.
When you complete the level, Sugar Crush is activated and will score you additional points.
This level is far harder than its counterpart in Reality. The target score is much higher, and the liquorice locks are arranged in such a way that getting rid of them requires a lot of luck.
Also, it is really easy to trigger big cascades; but then again, triggering a cascade may destroy too many of one colour on the moon scale.
The only moon struck lasts for only one move, making it harder to reach the target score.
The player is required to earn at least 7,280 points per move.[1]

Strategy[]
Focus on clearing liquorice locks before the moon struck and then try to create as many special candies as possible. Try to aim for large cascades, but be careful about the moon scale.
It is also very helpful to make colour bombs, but make sure not to activate them in the game as they will activate automatically at the end of the game during Sugar Crush. This gives you huge points in the Sugar Crush.
Glitch[]
For unknown reasons, the target score for mobile versions is different depending on systems. On iOS, the target score is very low, with 1-star score being 40,000 points. However the Android devices have the score requirement much higher, being 160,000 points. Unlike on the web version, candies have different behaviours on mobile. Furthermore, the moon struck is much less powerful, resulting in less points, which causes the player to easily fail to meet the target score requirement.
Trivia[]
The Reality counterpart of this level is a timed level.
With its buff, this level has less liquorice locks than Reality.
