The game and its variable results
Directed Root Trees has four vertices, numbered 0, 1, 2 and 3. Twelve independent fair switches decide whether each directed edge is present: 1 means present and 0 means absent. For example, 0→1 and 1→0 are separate edges. The terminal score counts spanning trees directed outward from root 0. Each of vertices 1, 2 and 3 has exactly one incoming tree edge, and all three can be reached from 0 along the tree.
The quote can rise, fall or reach zero as edges are revealed. A high return in one round does not predict the next round or verify an outside gambling service.
Break after the round settles
With By hand selected, you can collect after the first reveal if the round remains active. You can also let its rules settle it. Then leave the controls idle and take a break. There is no pause-and-resume control: reload loses an unfinished round and does not refund its deducted stake. Switching away does not guarantee the round will wait.
Choose voluntary limits
Choose a personal time or virtual-coin limit before playing, and stop when you reach it. Stakes are 10, 20, 50 or 100. Auto 1.2, 2, 3 and 5 are collection thresholds, not session timers or loss limits. The demo has no enforced session limit or account-level self-exclusion tool.
Restoration does not erase a result
When no round is active and the balance is below 10, Restore balance sets it to exactly 1,000 free coins. It does not add 1,000, run automatically or reset the fractional remainder. A balance of exactly 10 is not eligible.
Free restoration changes the wallet but does not make repeated losses safe or turn virtual coins into money. Fractional carry remains. Consider stopping instead of restoring if you have reached your personal limit.
Expected return and privacy
For collection decisions based only on revealed information, with the round allowed to settle under these rules, expected gross return before whole-coin rounding is exactly 97% of the stake. This is an average across possible rounds, not a promised result for a session. The 0.97 factor is applied once in the quote; there is no second 3% collection deduction. Whole-coin credits include carry between rounds, so an individual wallet credit need not equal 97% of its stake.
The browser stores the wallet and fractional remainder in localStorage. The page also requests Google Fonts resources and loads the Statinside measurement script for counter ID 44, with a measurement image when JavaScript is disabled. These are observed parts of the page, not a complete account of all possible processing. Local storage and the absence of a login do not establish anonymity or a promise that no personal data are processed.
Audience and getting support
This guide is intended for adults aged 18 and over. That audience label does not enforce an age check or establish local legality. Virtual coins have no cash value, cannot be withdrawn and are not prizes.
If you find it difficult to stop or play is affecting daily life, step away and seek appropriate local qualified help. This demo does not provide treatment or demonstrate that play trains safer behavior.
Frequently asked questions
Can I pause an active round and return later?
There is no pause-and-resume control. Collect an available quote or let the round settle before taking a break. Reload does not refund an unfinished stake.
Is Auto a spending or time limit?
No. Auto collects at a quote threshold within one round. It does not enforce a session duration, maximum loss or self-exclusion.
Does the 18+ label enforce access restrictions?
No. It states the intended adult audience. It is not an implemented age gate or a statement about local legality.
