Hi Everyone- Thanks so much for taking the time to provide us with your feedback, these comments will be passed on.
Though winning the Jackpot is rare, there's always a prize available for the Daily Booster Wheel and it costs absolutely nothing to spin it. This represents 365 FREE boosters a year!
The Jackpot is like any other game which includes a spinning wheel, it's really down to luck and chance where it stops! It's similar to playing any lottery, sometimes it just doesn't land where you'd like it. Our players aren't obliged to spin the wheel at all, so we understand if they'd prefer not to – but there’s really nothing to lose if you take a chance!
Don’t forget, we also have the Sugar Drop Challenge along with the numerous promotional games we frequently run, all of which offer you lots of chances to win free tasty extras.
We're also running promotional feature games more frequently now which offer the chance to win even more free Sweet rewards!
Thanks again for the feedback, we value the thoughts of all of our loyal players! :-)
Have a sweet week!

While I appreciate your comment, and you are absolutely right that it's basically 365 free boosters a year, it's also very frustrating to have you say that it's "like any other game that includes a spinning wheel." If that were true, players would have a 12.5% chance of hitting the jackpot because there are 8 equally divided sections that it can land on. Given that this particular wheel is just based on code behind the app and there is clearly less than 12.5% chance of hitting that spot, maybe what the developers could do is have the jackpot triangle be a much smaller piece of the pie, one that graphically represents what the statistical chances are of winning, whatever those may be. I think that would make everyone feel less cheated. Just don't brush it off with an answer like, "it's just like any other wheel" when maybe what you mean is "it's just like any other wheel that has unequal odds on different triangles, even though we make it look like they all have the same odds."

I think I'm in the same boat as everyone else; I've played Candy Crush for years now and have yet to hit the Jackpot. I've tried hitting the stop button in almost every single spot imaginable, yet the wheel either stops right before, or barely ticks over and out of the Jackpot. It's rigged, no doubt about it. And for King to say that it's "rare to hit the Jackpot" is a lie, rare is winning the lottery, hitting the Jackpot is like seeing a unicorn.

At least we win something everyday, although it isn´t the big prize

Come on Candy Crush God's, give us some answers. I have been playing Candy Crush for 5 yrs and I have never once won the jackpot on the wheel. I feel like this entire game is rigged. You win when you guys decide we win, passing a level the same way. I have decided to stop playing because of this reason. It's the "dangle the carrot" in front of you. On to more honest games. Bye.

I have been playing the lottery for longer then that and hardly ever won a dime; I don´t believe it is related to the amount of years we´ve been playing.

My guess is the odds are 8 factorial.... = 8x7x6x5x4x3x2x1 = 1 in 42,000

Nice one!

My theory is that if you spend stupid amounts of real money on a regular basis, then you'll eventually be awarded the jackpot.

Don´t try the same for the lottery I´d say!

Hi Sumerbrooke90, this question has appeared here before https://care.king.com/en/candy-crush-saga/jackpot
Also I remember having seen posts on Facebook and tweets from people who won the jackpot. I haven't won it (yet?) either.

Same for me here buddy

It's rigged. I don't believe the "correct answer" featured at the top is a real person. Company-created propaganda. Businesses often pad their boards like that.
I've played daily for three years. Never won jackpot. Noticed how the wheel either slows down suddenly upon getting close, or speeds up subtly to move past it. So my conclusion is, it's rigged to impossible odds.
My retaliation? I have never spent a single dime of real life money on this game, and will not, until I win a jackpot

Seriously? I've never won the Jackpot either but that does not give me the right to accuse others who have as being fake for the only reason that I have a "feeling". You can't just dismiss everything that doesn't match with your point of view/ narrative as being fake.Something to think about, it may look like a wheel, but it's just a mechanic that's been programmed look and behave like one for aesthetic reasons. In reality, as soon as you hit that stop button the outcome is decided and not when the wheel actually stops. That's how spinning a wheel in real life works, not so in the land of programming and computers.

I'm on level 1325....NEVER WON.
Barely ticked to next slot a bunch of times.

How after 5 yrs of playing, we have hit every single thing on the wheel but the jackpot? Answer is simple, it is rigged. Which also means when you pass a level is rigged too. Complete dishonest on Candy Crush's part. They do it so that you will spend money to pass a level.

I believe you are right. All of the post that say they won I feel are fake, from Candy Crush. I believe they are extremely dishonest.

I've won it several times now. My husband hasn't so I showed him the last time so he'd believe me.

You should do the lottery as you are one in a million! I've been playing this game for about 4-5 years and never won it - same as most people.

I am on level 1664 and never won the jackpot. The wheel actually speeds up a bit if it is close! Rigged for sure.

I was on level 1420 before I won the jackpot. The very next day the game crashed and I went back to 0 losing everything.

Should be a 1:8 chance but these 'games' are psychological manipulation of the most cynical kind & therefore are no more than a racket. Spend real money at your peril...

EITHER INCREASE THE ODDS OR REMOVE THE JACKPOT SPACE FROM THE WHEEL.
Same frustration here - I'm on level 940 and have never hit either. King Co - remove the useless space and add a bonus item so I don't feel played every time I spin the wheel.

Update - now on level 1400 and STILL never landed on Jackpot. C'mon guys, will the company founder if you un-rigged the program?

Maybe it's setup for 1 winner a month or less. Wheel always hits right before or after a lot of the time but I still never won

Exactly Starshine, I´ve noticed that too!

I am stuck on level 1152, or so for about two months! I have payed for 3 years now in my spare time and NEVER hit the JACKPOT! I'm stuck and my few friend players are way behind me and don't play. Please add me and and hope to find other players.

I think you can ask people here https://www.facebook.com/candycrushsaga/?fref=ts to add you
