What happens with crown chests crowns when chest is not unlocked?

To unlock the Crown chest, you need to get 10 crowns within a day. For each day I have played so far, I managed to get this (most of the time easily). However, today is the first day I will not manage to reach this limit. I am at 8 (of 10) right now, and I do not have the time to play a game (yes, I do have the time to post this question).

I don't mind that I cannot open the crown chest for today, but I am probably busy tomorrow as well. Do I have to start from scratch, or can I continue with 8 chests, and skip a day?


As far as I know from my experience and the wiki, your chest will remain at 8/10 until you unlock it, and since it would have been more than 24 hours after the current chest was firstly available for unlock, you'll be able to unlock the next chest as well. (Not entirely sure for the one after that though)

So you will:

  1. Be able to unlock your current chest with only 2 crowns.
  2. Be able to unlock the next chest with 10 crowns immediately after you are done with 1.
  3. Wait 24 hours after completing 1. to unlock any subsequent crown chest (and carry on as usual).
