Good game but I’m stuck on a level I can’t pass – Matchland Quest Review

I’ve been playing this game for at least a year now and I love it. However, the game recently went into a mode that said I need to pass all the sea levels before I can level up in the actual game. This wouldn’t be a major problem if level 9 in the sea world was passable. In level 9 in the sea world, there are 3 tasks to complete that get checked off as you complete them. One of these tasks has two arrows facing opposite directions which I can only assume means that you have to get 15 of these moves to be checked off. You think that would be simple but unfortunately whenever you make a move at all, one of your “lives” for that task is taken away and somehow for some horrible reason, that task is rendered completely uncompleted. Has anyone else encountered this in their game? It’s really frustrating and it makes me feel discouraged. I want to keep playing but how can I if the game won’t let me move forward?
