One method players use to obtain the Kings Rock this way is to keep a seven-day streak of spins, which will give you a boosted chance of getting one. While it’s not guaranteed, it’s certainly a more assured way of getting one than random spins once in a while. After 250 spins, that chance increases to over 50%.
