Game Mechanics
Four independent tiles display one of three equally likely shapes. You count matching adjacent pairs across three seams. Each match returns 0.96 times the gross stake. Total returns are 0, 0.96, 1.92, or 2.88 times the stake. The expected return is 0.96 per round based on linear probability.
Stakes and Settlement
Stakes are 10, 25, 50, or 100 coins, with 25 as the default. The stake is deducted once at the start and persists before animation. Payouts are computed in hundredths, adding any fractional carry and crediting floor whole coins. Automatic settlement occurs at the exit or end of reveal.
Wallet and Controls
The initial balance is 1000 coins. Manual refill is available only when idle and below 10 coins, setting the balance to 1000. Controls disable during active rounds. Reloading discards unfinished rounds without refund. Local storage saves the whole wallet and fractional hundredths.
