Game Mechanics and Payout Structure
Mosaic Seams features four independent tiles, each displaying one of three equally likely shapes. You count matching adjacent pairs across the three seams. Each match returns 0.96 times the gross stake. The total payout is determined by the number of matches: 0x, 0.96x, 1.92x, or 2.88x. The expected return is calculated as three matches multiplied by a one-third probability, resulting in an expected gross return of 0.96 times the stake.
Stakes, Wallet Rules, and Settlement
Stakes are set at 10, 25, 50, or 100 virtual coins, with 25 as the default. The full stake is deducted once at the start and persists before animation. Payouts are computed in hundredths; any fractional carry is kept separately while whole coins are credited. Automatic settlement occurs at the chosen exit or end of reveal. Reloading the page discards any unfinished round without refund or resume.
Wallet Restoration and Controls
Manual idle refill is available only when the balance falls below 10 coins. This action sets the balance to 1000 coins rather than adding that amount. Controls for stake, start, and mode are disabled while a round is active. The fractional hundredths and pending round flag are stored in local storage. Clearing cache or refreshing resets these controls and discards the current state.
Frequently asked questions
Does the demo include a cashier or cash value?
No. The demo uses virtual coins with no cash value. There is no deposit, withdrawal, or cashier interface within the original demo.
What happens if I reload the page during a round?
The unfinished round is discarded without a refund. The deducted stake remains lost, and the game resets to its initial state without resuming the previous settlement.
