Survival Odds and Gross Payouts
Before starting, you choose an exit lock between one and four. The survival probabilities for each lock are eighty percent, seventy-five percent, two-thirds, and fifty percent respectively. If you survive your chosen lock, the game returns a gross multiplier of 1.2, 1.6, 2.4, or 4.8 times your stake. Failure results in a zero return. The score function confirms that survival probabilities multiply with gross returns to yield an expected return of ninety-six percent.
Wallet Mechanics and Settlement
Your stake is deducted immediately at the start of the round and persists through the animation. Payouts are calculated in hundredths, adding any saved fractional carry before crediting whole coins. The remainder, up to ninety-nine hundredths, is kept separately. Settlement is automatic at the exit or end of the reveal, with no manual stop option. If you reload the page, any unfinished round is discarded without a refund or resumption.
Controls and Wallet Restoration
You can select stakes of ten, twenty-five, fifty, or one hundred, with twenty-five as the default. Controls lock while the round is active. Manual wallet restoration is only available when idle and the balance falls below ten. This action sets your balance to one thousand rather than adding to it. The fractional hundredths and pending round flags are stored locally, ensuring precise tracking of your virtual coins.
