How Survival Rates Determine Your Payout
In the Ferry Locks demo, you select one of four exits before starting. Each exit has a specific survival chance at successive locks: 80 percent, 75 percent, two-thirds, and 50 percent. If you reach your chosen exit, you receive a gross return multiplier of 1.2, 1.6, 2.4, or 4.8. Failure at any lock returns zero. The game does not allow manual exits during the round, and the settlement is automatic upon reaching the exit or failing.
Mathematical Evidence and Expected Return
Simulation data confirms the expected return for each mode. For all four crash choices, the expected RTP is 96 percent. Simulated results over one million rounds show values between 95.98 and 96.27 percent, closely matching the theoretical expectation. The score function multiplies the survival probability at the exit by the gross multiplier, yielding values like 0.96 for the first exit. This confirms that the game is designed for long-term stability rather than short-term guarantees.
Wallet Settlement and Fractional Carry
Your stake is deducted once at the start of the round. Gross returns include your original stake. The payout is computed in hundredths, and any fractional carry is persisted separately. You are credited with the floor of whole coins, while the remainder between zero and ninety-nine is kept as a fractional carry. If your balance drops below ten, you can manually refill to one thousand. Reloading the page discards any unfinished round without a refund or resume option.
Frequently asked questions
How is the final payout calculated in Ferry Locks?
The payout is calculated by multiplying your stake by the gross multiplier for your chosen exit. The result is settled in hundredths, with whole coins credited and fractions kept as a separate carry.
What happens if I reload the page during a round?
Reloading discards the unfinished round immediately. Your stake remains deducted, and you do not receive a refund or a resumed settlement upon returning.
