Olé, I'm so glad! The truth is that now that the wheel runs faster it's difficult for me, but before I already had the trick down:When it starts rolling and the 3☆ are "in the clock position and 15 minutes", I hit it and many times I got...Now it's harder for me...
It did cross my mind that timing plays a part to determine when the wheel will stop. I tried for a short period of time before I gave up on this idea.
From my shallow IT point of view, the likely sequence of events are:
My conclusion: It's not within our control, it's completely random.
I have hit it before but not very often. You get all the boosters on the wheel.
You think it's weird to keep a notebook @cookiemae ? You should see my collection of bits of paper and notes that I make! That is really interesting what you shared with us there. I will try your method starting this morning. You are right about the algorithms of course. They have become more apparent in 2024, so more players are able to see through them now.
I still admire your gift to always win the Star Tournament. I look at it sometimes and play a few levels, which are usually the more interesting ones. Have you noted a change in the levels they pick recently? Have you any idea how many different levels there are in the Star Tournament before they repeat?
I agree with that @quekkc . I never hit the jackpot until about 2023 I think. Since then I occasionally hit it. I'm trying to use the "time it" method Alienscar suggested above, but it will take a long time to find out if there is a way to affect where it lands at one chance per day. Have you ever tried that and do think it might work?
@Alienscar I think there maybe a pattern as well. I find that if I let it run for a certain length of time that I can usually hit the jackpot. I just about got the time down but I get inpatient sometime and stop it.I think most of Candy Crush has an algorithm it's just finding it. Same thing with the episodes if you notice a lot are repeating pretty regularly after a while you can predict how it's going to play out if you are paying attention. I know it's kinda weird but I keep a notebook. Lol I'm sure it's not that deep for most people they probably just play as is. Me I have lots of time ☺️
I believe the probabilities for hitting each of the booster are predefined in the algorithm. They must have increased the probability for the jackpot say from 1% to 10% in recent years. That's why I have never hit the jackpot in the earlier years.
Yes, I have achieved it several times.Luck!!
Yes I have
Interesting to hear all this. I always assumed that in Sweet Cinema whichever one you tap on, it would be the same outcome. Whether that is random though I cannot tell. It probably does not matter as most players would continue until all prizes have been won and to King the order would not matter. On the subject of randomness, when the lucky egg was first introduced I got a a test version where there was a choice to pick one out of four or five eggs, to reveal an inner prize of a choice of different colours, each of which would give a different prize. In fact I must have had a faulty test version, because whichever egg I chose it always without fail was the same colour and prize, and I must have tapped on at least 10 or 15 eggs while I had that event. That is one reason I don't trust that anything like this is not predetermined.
I do suspect that it actually is timeable, to some degree. During the first few months I played, I would always try to time the stopping, and I got the 3 stars quite a few times back then. After those first few months, I started just randomly clicking on Stop, and I have gotten the 3 stars much less often. Recently I realized this, and so I've started trying to time it again, but I haven't yet had success since starting to time it again; I'm hoping it will really help, but admittedly I don't know for sure.
I have done statistical analysis on the prizes for the Sweet Cinema (back when it was 9 tries, not the 16 that it is now), and I decided the statistics were quite clear that was totally random. So now I always pick the choices in the same order every time, to speed up the process by not having to decide. :-) Indeed, I have always suspected with Sweet Cinema that perhaps it doesn't even set up the board in advance - it probably doesn't even calculate what is where, but rather just serves up one at random from what is remaining when you click on one. So I agree with Christine that almost everything like this in Candy Crush is random. But it seems like maybe the booster wheel is an exception - maybe.
Yes, you get all rewards altogether. You can see from my avatar. I got it more frequent than the Daily Treat machine. I never ever win a jackpot from that machine thing.
What you are suggesting seems to go against anything that King do but I have never spent any time even wondering if it might be something we can control, so you might be right and I might be wrong. I just assumed it was predetermined by an algorithm because everything else in the game is! It will be hard for me to test as I do not know any way to spin more than once in a day.
I have hit the Wheel jackpot many times @bkuzma1969 On average I receive the jackpot every four to five weeks.

There is no way to influence that.
I am not sure about that @christinewupp it sometimes seems to me that if you select stop at just the right time you can get good results. This week I have managed to get three lollipops, and I was trying to get them. You have to experiment and watch where the wheel stops with relation to when you press stop.
It isn't consistent but you just have to watch. Sometimes I can get a lollipop by pressing stop just as the lollipop is at the top other times I get it by stopping the wheel two boosters after the lollipop.
It may be an illusion, but it is still good when King decides to let us get it, I got it 2 or 3 times last year.😀
Hello @DragonExpress No, there cannot be any tips! The wheel is not a real wheel a spins! King decide what boosters we will get each day. There is no way to influence that. The wheel is just a graphic representation. It's all an illusion.
Any tips? I only got it one time🎉
Got it quite a few times. On average I'd say once per month.
