The recorded Candy Road first clear reached Wave 6/6 with 20 lives in 5:23 and displayed 150 Gems, one Trait Crystal and two XP Candies. That is one sample, not a promised clear time.
Candy Kingdom Defense tier list by rarity stars
Higher stars receive a higher tier in this rarity-based list. Equal stars share a tier; the exact form matters.
| Tier | Stars | Unit forms |
|---|---|---|
| S | 6★ | Marceline Beast · Lemongrab |
| A | 5★ | No verified form in this guide yet |
| B | 4★ | Lady Rainicorn · BMO · Flame Princess |
| C | 3★ | Finn · Jake |
| ? | — | Billy |
S applies to the six-star Marceline Beast form, not automatically to base Marceline. Billy’s stars remain unconfirmed. Rarity tiers do not measure controlled combat performance.
How to prepare a Marceline Beast evolution
The completed Marceline Beast route is a concrete example of the Shrine process.
10Hunson’s AmuletsNightosphere · Act 5
5Enchiridion PagesChallenge rewards
1,000GemsEvolution cost
Before EVOLVE
Farm Hunson’s Amulets in Nightosphere Act 5, Lord of Evil. Bring the hero to the Shrine and read owned/required counts for every material. A recipe preview alone is not a completed evolution.
After confirmation
The recorded success kept LV 50 and Radical. The resulting Beast profile has 2,244 DMG, 2.34s SPA and 38 range with that level, trait and stat-grade combination.
Which Act 5 drops your evolution material?
Choose the personal material first, then the exact stage. First-clear and replay rewards are separate.
| Hero / evolution | Material | World and stage |
|---|---|---|
| Bubblegum → Candy Elemental Bubblegum | Elemental Candy | Candy KingdomAct 5 · Slumber Party Panic |
| Jake → Alien Jake | Sandwich | Ice KingdomAct 5 · Ice King’s Wrath |
| Finn → Adult Finn | Robo-Arm Part | Fire KingdomAct 5 · Burning Low |
| BMO → King BMO | Core Driver | MO FactoryAct 5 · Be More |
| Lemongrab → Lemongrab 3 | Sour Lemon | Castle LemongrabAct 5 · Lemonhope |
| Marceline → Marceline Beast | Hunson’s Amulet | NightosphereAct 5 · Lord of Evil |
| Lady Rainicorn → Prism Queen Rainicorn | Rainbow Crystal | Crystal DimensionAct 5 · The Crystal Queen |
Each recorded REPLAY card lists 50 Gems and one personal item. These are menu-listed rewards; do not treat the separate Infinite 30%-every-ten-waves mechanic as the Act 5 drop rate.
Feed for the XP you need, not the items you own
The inventory count is not the selected count. Review the preview before consuming candies or duplicate heroes.
150 XPXP Candy
600 XPBig XP Candy
Check overflowBefore confirming Feed
The captured Rainicorn and Flame Princess previews project Lv50 and warn about unused XP. Reduce the selection when that warning appears. Their preview values are not proof that the resources were consumed or that every future form has the same cap.
Feeding changes hero XP. Use Trait Crystals for traits and Juice for stat grades. These are separate operations.
Summon, reroll a trait, or reroll stats?
Identify the operation before spending. The recorded interfaces use different resources for different changes.
Gems
Summon a hero
The captured summon screen lists 50 Gems for one pull and 450 for ten, with Legendary or better guaranteed in 50 summons. Check the current pool and counter before spending.
Trait Crystal
Change the named trait
The trait interface shows one Crystal per reroll at Castle Lemongrab. The same trait can return; Juice does not replace this resource.
Juice
Change three stat grades
Use the Reconditioning Chamber for Damage, Range and SPA grades. A letter beside a stat is separate from the rarity tier in the unit list.
Check the mode before comparing rewards
A story first clear, a story replay and a Dungeon Train challenge have different reward panels.
Story progression
Use the Candy Kingdom stage order to identify your next clear. Frosty Fudge Pass is Act 3 on Hard in the recorded story screen, with 12 waves and 15 lives.
Dungeon Train Pages
Frosty Fudge Pass also appears as a Train challenge with 2× enemy HP, 120 Gems and one Page listed. FIRST WIN separately lists three Trait Crystals and two Juice; a challenge clear receipt is not recorded.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many story stages does the game list?
The official Roblox description lists five worlds and 25 story stages. It does not describe the layout of every stage.
Are Finn’s stats shown for every upgrade?
No. Captures show in-battle stages 1, 2 and 4. Stages 3, 5 and 6 are not verified in this record; preview text is labeled separately.
Does the Candy Road page contain a guaranteed strategy?
It reports one first-clear result. The evidence does not support a fixed route or guaranteed strategy for all six waves.
Is RELEASE confirmed to be working?
Recorded redemptions of RELEASE awarded 1,500 Gems, 15 Trait Crystals and 5 Units of Juice. Its current availability has not been retested; check the in-game response before relying on the code.
How does the tier list rate units?
Units are grouped by rarity stars: 6★ S, 5★ A, 4★ B, 3★ C, with ties for equal stars. Current S-tier forms include Marceline Beast, Lemongrab. These are exact-form rarity ratings, not controlled combat-performance rankings.
Where should I start with unit evolution?
Use the Evolution Materials guide to check the recipe and material-drop stages, then open the relevant unit guide. Marceline’s guide includes a completed Marceline Beast evolution; distinguish a material preview from a recorded success.
