How it works
1Enter your stake and choose the number of mines, from 1 to 24.
2Tap Place mines. The mines are buried and cannot move.
3Tap a tile to turn it. A safe tile raises your pot. A mine ends the board.
4Tap Cash out to take the pot. It stays locked until you have turned a tile.
You can only have one board at a time.
What the pot pays
Multiplied by your stake. Any mine count from 1 to 24 can be chosen. The board shows the full climb for your setting before you stake.
| Mines | After 1 tile | After 3 tiles | Last tile pays |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1.0x | 1.08x | 23.75x, after 24 tiles |
| 3 | 1.08x | 1.42x | 150x, after 20 tiles |
| 5 | 1.19x | 1.92x | 150x, after 15 tiles |
| 10 | 1.58x | 4.80x | 150x, after 8 tiles |
| 24 | 23.75x | n/a | 23.75x, after 1 tile |
What are the odds?
- The house keeps 5% of your stake on average, however many mines you pick and wherever you stop. Your return is 95%.
- There are two exceptions. With 1 mine, stopping after the first tile pays 1.0x, which returns 96%.
- The other is the 150x ceiling. If you play every tile to the ceiling, your return is lower: 65.2% with 3 mines, 71.1% with 5 and 89.2% with 10.
- You reach the ceiling on 0.43% of 3-mine boards, 0.47% of 5-mine boards and 0.59% of 10-mine boards.
- Pots are rounded to whole dollars.
When does a board end?
- When you turn a mine, you lose your stake.
- When you cash out, you are paid the pot.
- When the multiplier reaches 150x, or you clear every safe tile, you are paid automatically.
- When 30 minutes pass without a result, the board expires and the pot is lost.
What happens if the casino cannot pay?
- If the vault holds less than your pot, you are paid what is in the vault.
- You then take over the casino.
Tips
- You cannot cash out before turning a tile. Your stake is already in the vault.
- A closed casino still lets you finish a board you already started.
- More mines means fewer safe tiles and a bigger pay per tile. It does not change the 95% return.
