Game Mechanic

Ball-drop arcade game with adjustable risk levels and row counts

Step-by-Step Guide

  1. 1

    Choose your risk level (Low, Medium, or High) which changes the multiplier values at the bottom bins.

  2. 2

    Select the number of rows (8–16) — more rows means more pegs and a wider spread of possible outcomes.

  3. 3

    Set your bet amount and click Drop to release the ball from the top of the board.

  4. 4

    The ball bounces left or right at each peg with equal probability, following a path determined by the provably fair system.

  5. 5

    When the ball lands in a bin at the bottom, your bet is multiplied by that bin's value and added to your balance.

Provably Fair System

Each peg bounce is determined by a single bit derived from HMAC-SHA256(server_seed, client_seed:nonce:cursor). For a 16-row game, 16 random bits are extracted from the hash output. Bit = 0 means bounce left, bit = 1 means bounce right. The server seed hash is shown before you drop — after rotating seeds, you can recompute every bounce independently.
