Mechanics
The numbers behind the games.
Every game runs on arithmetic that is published, checkable and mostly misread. These pages derive it rather than assert it, so you can redo the calculation yourself.
RTP
RTP is the share of everything wagered that a game returns to players on average, over millions of rounds. The remainder is the house edge. Neither number describes a single session.
RTPHouse edge
The house edge is the fixed percentage of each stake the operator keeps on average. It is a property of the rules, so it applies identically to a beginner and to an expert on games of pure chance.
House edgeVolatility
Volatility does not change what a game costs on average. It changes the spread of outcomes, and therefore how likely you are to run out of money before the average has any chance to show up.
VolatilityWagering requirements
Multiply the bonus by its wagering multiple to get the amount you must stake. Multiply that amount by the game's house edge to get the expected cost of unlocking it. If that cost exceeds the bonus, the offer has negative value.
