Game Mechanics and Rules
The game displays four independent tiles, each showing one of three equally likely shapes. Players count matching adjacent pairs across the three seams. Each match returns 0.96 times the gross stake, resulting in total payouts of 0x, 0.96x, 1.92x, or 2.88x. The expected return is calculated as three matches times one-third probability times 0.96, equaling 0.96. Stakes are set to 10, 25, 50, or 100 coins, with 25 as the default. An exit or arc choice resets the game to 1 coin upon reload.
Wallet and Settlement Details
A captured whole stake is deducted once at the start and persists before any animation. Gross returns include the stake and differ from net profit. Payouts are computed in hundredths, adding saved fractional carry while crediting floor whole coins and keeping the remainder. Automatic settlement occurs at the chosen exit or end of reveal, with no manual stop or autoplay. Reloading discards any unfinished round without refund or resumed settlement.
Controls and Observed Facts
Manual idle refill is available only when the balance falls below 10 coins, setting the balance to 1000 coins rather than adding that amount. Controls for stake, start, and mode are disabled while the round is active, and the refill button is hidden. The demo requires no account, using local storage for the wallet and fractional hundredths. Google Fonts, Statinside analytics, and external login buttons are observed, but their affiliation is not verified.
