Responsible Game Design Principles in Gates of Olympus 1000

The design of Gates of Olympus 1000 incorporates several features to promote responsible play:

• Transparent Mechanics: All game rules, paytables, and feature explanations are easily accessible directly within the game via the 'i' (information) button, providing 7 dedicated information pages for players.
• Clear Balance and Bet Display: Your current balance and bet amount are always clearly visible on the game screen, helping you track your spending at a glance.
• High Volatility Transparency: We explicitly state the game's high volatility, managing player expectations regarding win frequency and potential.
• Optional Features with Clear Costs: Features like the 'Ante Bet' and 'Buy Bonus' are optional. Their costs (e.g., 100x stake for Buy Bonus) are explicitly communicated within the game, ensuring players make informed choices. While these features offer alternative ways to engage, we advocate for their responsible use and require our operator partners to provide robust tools that allow players to manage their spending effectively, especially when using such options.
• Minimum Delay Between Rounds: A mandatory minimum delay between spins (typically 3 seconds) is implemented to prevent rapid, impulsive play.

Recognising Problem Gambling and Seeking Help

Gambling should always be a form of entertainment and never a source of stress or financial difficulty. If you find that it's no longer fun or you're experiencing negative consequences, it's crucial to recognise the signs and seek help. Please be aware of these common warning signs of problem gambling:

• Playing longer than planned or spending more time gambling than intended.
• Spending more money than you can afford to lose.
• Chasing losses – trying to win back money you've lost, often leading to further losses.
• Lying to loved ones about the extent of your gambling or financial situation.
• Feeling anxious, guilty, or depressed because of your gambling activities.
• Borrowing money, selling possessions, or neglecting bills to fund gambling.
• Neglecting work, studies, or family responsibilities due to gambling.

Tips for Safer Play

• Set a budget before you start playing and stick strictly to it. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose.
• Never gamble under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or when feeling emotional (stressed, sad, angry).
• Take regular breaks – step away from the game for at least 15 minutes every hour to clear your head.
• Remember: gambling is entertainment, not a way to make money or solve financial problems.
• Never try to chase losses – this often leads to further financial strain and deeper problems.
• Set time limits for your gaming sessions and adhere to them.
