Game guide

Slots

Machine-based games where outcomes are determined by a random number generator.

How the game works

Each round resolves independently through a random number generator. Reels and animations present the result; they do not influence it.

Published return-to-player figures describe long-run averages across enormous numbers of rounds, not what any session will produce.

Probability concepts

Rounds are independent, so a machine is never "due". Features that appear to signal a near miss are presentation, not probability.

Volatility describes how widely results scatter around the average; higher volatility means longer losing stretches.
