How to play?

2. DEPOSIT some cryptocurrency or use FAUCET feature.
3. Set up your BET by specifying:
   • BET AMOUNT – amount of crypto-money you want to place;
   • GAME TYPE – LOW, if you think the next roll will be smaller than the target number, displayed on the field. HIGH, if you think the next roll will be greater than the target number;
   • WIN CHANCE – the lower the chance, the higher the payout.
4. Hit ROLL.

Then a random number between 0 and 9,999 will be generated and compared to the target number in the following way:

• If the chosen GAME TYPE is LOW and the random number is LESS than the target number then RESULT is WIN, otherwise LOSS;
• If the chosen GAME TYPE is HIGH and the random number is GREATER than the target number then RESULT is WIN, otherwise LOSS.

In case of WIN, your WIN AMOUNT equals to BET AMOUNT times PAYOUT to your BALANCE. In case of LOSS, your WIN AMOUNT is 0.

Please note that due to rounding WIN CHANCE to the hundredths instead of displaying all digits after comma, a user can see a different PAYOUT amount with the same WIN CHANCE.

Qualified wager amount is a part of your Total Wager Amount which we take into an account while calculating your Level.

Qualified wager amount depends on a wager age - wagered amount for today counts as 100% however, yesterday's wagered amount will be decreased by 0.5%, wager amount from 2 days ago will be decreased by 1% and so on. In other words wager amount will be subtracted by 0.5% for each day that passed since then.

Until your Faucet winnings will reach the minimum withdrawal amount, the Faucet Wager will have a negative effect on a Qualified Wager. So if you have 1 BTC Qualified Wager and recently wagered 0.1 BTC from a claimed Faucet, Qualified Wager will be reduced to 0.9 BTC. Negative Faucet Wager will also degrade by 0.5% per day.

After your Faucet winnings will reach the minimum withdrawal amount, the Faucet Wager will be counted as real money and will be eligible for Qualified Wager Amount.
