How it works.

Every game in the arcade is one of exactly two kinds. Which kind it is decides where the prize money comes from, and what your play changes.

Instant games — the board decides, your play converts

The board decides what's winnable, your play converts it.

At the moment an instant round starts, the chain’s randomness decides two things: whether this board is winnable at all, and — if it is — which prize it holds. Your skill does not change what the board contains. It decides whether you finish the round and collect what is already there.

A losing board is a real round. All eight slots reveal, and no icon appears three times. Prizes are fixed and known before you play, and they are paid from a house-guaranteed reserve — not from other players’ entries.

• Sharp Shooter — 1 USDC a round, 35s on the clock. Match any icon three times to win its value, up to 250 USDC.
• Beatdown — 2 USDC a round, 45s on the clock. Match any icon three times to win its value, up to 500 USDC.
• Full Tilt — 2 USDC a round, 100s on the clock. Match any icon three times to win its value, up to 500 USDC.
• Big Brain — 2 USDC a round, 75s on the clock. Find four pairs to crack the vault, and it pays the prize it drew — up to 500 USDC.
• Drop Zone — 5 USDC a round, 46s on the clock. Match any icon three times to win its value, up to 1,250 USDC.

Draw games — you pick, the draw decides

A draw game asks you for five numbers from 1 to 50. The mini-game is how you choose them: your aim and your timing genuinely control which numbers land on the ticket. Nothing is decided in advance, and no number is worth more than another.

Every number combination has equal odds — skill picks your numbers, the draw decides winners.

Fifteen percent of every ticket is the house’s; the other 85% goes to the prize pools. Winners in a tier split that tier’s pool — so prizes are shares of real money collected, never a figure we promise in advance. If a tier is not won, it rolls into the next draw.

Per ticket, the odds are the same for any five numbers you choose: match 5 is 1 in 2,118,760, match 4 is 1 in ~9,417, and match 3 is 1 in ~214.

• The Claw — 1 USDC a ticket, drawn weekly.
• Daily Digit Dash — 2 USDC a ticket, drawn every day.
• Pocket Picks — 3 USDC a ticket, drawn weekly.
• Bull Rush — 5 USDC a ticket, drawn weekly.

When you are charged

Instant games are charged when you tap through the price gate, because the round’s outcome is drawn the moment it starts — the round begins paid.

Draw games are charged only when you lock in a completed five-number ticket. Starting a run is free. If you bust or walk away, you are charged nothing and no ticket is entered.
