Game Mechanics and Payouts
Before starting, you choose one exit lock from options 1 to 4. The game then subjects your selection to successive survival checks with independent probabilities: 80% for the first lock, 75% for the second, two-thirds for the third, and 50% for the fourth. Reaching your chosen exit yields a gross multiplier of 1.2x, 1.6x, 2.4x, or 4.8x depending on the lock selected. If you fail any check, the round ends immediately with zero return. You cannot manually exit during the active round.
Stakes, Wallet, and Settlement
The available stakes are 10, 25, 50, and 100 virtual coins, with 25 as the default. Your stake is deducted once at the start and persists even if you reload. Payouts are calculated in hundredths; any fractional amount is saved separately as carry-over, while whole coins are credited to your balance. The demo uses a manual idle refill that restores your balance to 1000 coins only when it falls below 10. Reloads discard unfinished rounds without refund or resume capability.
Technical Details and Privacy
Settlement is automatic upon reaching the exit or failing a check. The game stores your whole wallet, fractional hundredths, and pending round flags in local storage. It uses Google Fonts and Statinside analytics. External login buttons link to unverified services. No account is required to play, and the demo does not involve deposits or withdrawals. The game is intended for users 18 and older, though no strict age gate is enforced.
