Hi and Welcome to our Community
You start any game you play with a full set of five lives.
Unlimited Lives can sometimes be bought or occasionally are offered as a prize in many of our games. It's a great way to play for longer without running out of lives.
Unlimited Lives are controlled by a timer, so when they're won or bought, the clock will begin to 'tick' down until the timer reaches 00:00 and your game returns to the usual way of using lives.
It's important to know that the lives will continue expiring when you're not playing, so if you're playing to win them before going to bed or not playing for some time, be aware that they'll continue to count down while you're away.
Depending on how you win or buy your lives, you should be able to 'stack' them too - so if you make a purchase which includes Unlimited Lives and you have some you've just won, you should find the timer increases to include both.
Unlimited Lives are only valid in the game you win/purchase them on and cannot be transferred between King games.
@Elvin Hi and welcome,
It is the game studio that decide how many lives a game can have and with all King games the standard is 5, you can then improve this with the gold or diamond trophy if you have the master trophy feature and get 6 lives for the next episode
Thank you
Welcome to the friendly King Community.
The number of set lives you get in the game depends on the test group that means who gets how many set of lives is determined by the test group. Promotion allocation is random, and so king unable to add or remove the active promotions for specific players. Before any change is implemented a randomly chosen group of players is selected to trial the feature, and based upon how the change is viewed king then decide whether the change is one they want to adopt or not. This feature has been rolled out to different players for a certain amount of time but not everyone will receive this.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
