Step 2: Accumulate at least 300 gems. Depending on your skill level, this may take anywhere from a few sessions to several days of play.
Step 3: Open the in-game shop and select Gold Coin to unlock it. The skin will be available in your ball selection menu from that point on.
Tip: Use the Reaction Trainer to improve your survival time — longer runs mean more gems per session.
