I believe that there may be 2 possible ways to win. 1 method has yet to be tested. it would require u to have won at least once or to have seen someone else win, the joystick part should be relatively easy so don't worry to much about that, but whenever you see someone play, count how many seconds it takes for the key to reach the desired prize. if someone wins while you were counting you will then know how long it takes for the key to reach the prize and win. timing obviously varies among each row of prizes. the other method is pretty much luck. it is believed that if enough people play key master that there will be enough money in the machine to equal the cost of the prize, which in turn changes the games difficulty, making it easier to win. that's why everyone thinks it is rigged. I myself, don't know if any of this is true. but the first method is definitely worth a try, especially if your not the one wasting money on chance. you watch & count each try till you have right number of seconds to win!
