Responsible Gambling
Responsible Gambling
Gambling involves risk. Chicken Shoot, like all casino games, has a built-in house edge (6% based on the 94% RTP). Over time, the mathematical expectation is that you will lose more than you win. This is not a flaw in the game. It is how all casino games work, and understanding this is the first step toward responsible play.
Set Limits Before You Play
- Budget limit: Decide how much you can afford to lose before opening the game. Never gamble with money needed for rent, bills, or essentials.
- Time limit: Set a timer for 20-30 minutes. Chicken Shoot rounds are fast (a few seconds each) and it is easy to play hundreds of rounds without realizing it.
- Loss limit: Walk away when you hit your pre-set loss limit. Do not increase your bets to recover losses.
Warning Signs
If you experience any of the following, consider seeking help:
- Gambling with money you cannot afford to lose
- Borrowing money to gamble
- Feeling anxious or irritable when not gambling
- Lying about the amount of time or money spent on gambling
- Neglecting work, family, or personal responsibilities because of gambling
- Chasing losses by increasing bet sizes after losing streaks
