== Slots ==
xEveryone's favorite, the classic slot machines. These are simple, three-slot, single payout line machines of a classic design. === Slots: Bet limits ===* Players: 1* Minimum bet: Depends on machine* Maximum bet: Depends on machine === Slots: Machine types === There are four different types of slot machines: Copper, Silver, Gold, and Platinum. The slot machine type determines how many chips you need to insert per game.* Copper: 1 chip = 1 credit* Silver: 5 chips = 1 credit* Gold: 25 chips = 1 credit* Platinum: 100 chips = 1 credit Multiples of each machine type are available on a casino's slots floor. Simply select the one you want to play on. === Slots: How to play ==='''''Caution:''' This section makes use of '''Unicode symbols''' and may not display correctly on all browsers or devices.'' * Select the number of credits to bet, from 1 to 3, then insert the requisite amount of chips.* Spin to win! To simulate the slots spinning randomly, roll '''3d8''' once per game. Each number represents a symbol (see the table below): {| class="wikitable" style="font-size:10pt"|-! Roll !! Symbol name || Symbol || Payout (1 cr) || Payout (2 cr) || Payout (3 cr)|-| '''1''' || Blank || || None || None || None|-| '''2''' || Bar || ㍴ || 30 cr || 60 cr || 90 cr|-| '''3''' || Watermelon || 🍉 || 50 cr || 100 cr || 150 cr|-| '''4''' || Star || ⭐ || 75 cr || 150 cr || 225 cr|-| '''5''' || Bell || 🔔 || 100 cr || 200 cr || 300 cr|-| '''6''' || Diamond || 💎 || 200 cr || 400 cr || 600 cr|-| '''7''' || Lucky 7 || ❼ || 500 cr || 1000 cr || 2000 cr|-| '''8''' || Lightning || ⚡ || ⚡ 2 cr<br/>⚡⚡ 5 cr<br/>⚡⚡⚡ 20 cr || ⚡ 4 cr<br/>⚡⚡ 10 cr<br/>⚡⚡⚡ 40 cr || ⚡ 6 cr<br/>⚡⚡ 15 cr<br/>⚡⚡⚡ 60 cr|} A winning combination is any triplet of symbols, except Blank. You may also win small amounts of credits if you roll one or two ⚡ (lightning). Winning combinations cause the machine to give you additional credits, at varying rates depending on the amount you bet. You may cash out at any moment, which will convert your slot credits back into chips.
== Video poker ==
xVideo machines simulating games of five-hand poker. === Video poker: Bet limits ===* Players: 1* Valid bets: 5, 10, 15, 20, or 25 chips === Video poker: How to play === * Insert 5, 10, 15, 20, or 25 chips. The more you insert, the higher the potential payouts.* The machine displays five randomly selected cards from two standard 52-card decks. Your objective is to form a hand using the cards given.* Select between 0 and 5 of the cards displayed to HOLD. Any cards not selected are discarded and replaced with new ones.* If your hand is one of the valid combinations, you win. {| class="wikitable" style="font-size:10pt"|-! Combination || Description || Payout|-| '''Royal Flush''' || 10-J-Q-K-A of the same suit (a Straight Flush with the highest-value cards) || '''100x''' bet|-| '''Straight Flush''' || Straight + Flush (except 10-J-Q-K-A) || '''25x''' bet|-| '''Four of a Kind''' || Four cards of the same value. || '''10x''' bet|-| '''Full house''' || Pair + Three of a Kind. || '''5x''' bet|-| '''Flush''' || Five cards of the same suit. || '''4x''' bet|-| '''Straight''' || Five cards of sequential values but not the same suit.<br/>Valid sequential order: 2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-J-Q-K-A || '''3x''' bet|-| '''Three of a Kind''' || Three cards of the same value. || '''2x''' bet|-| '''Two pairs''' || Two pairs of any of the same value. || '''1.5x''' bet|-| '''One pair of face cards''' || One pair of jacks, queens, kings, or aces. || '''1x''' bet|} {{GMTip|tiptext=Simulating cards with dice is not recommended, as it has several limitations.<br/>We strongly recommend using the [https://www.random.org/playing-cards/ random.org playing card generator], as it can be configured easily.<br/>When generating cards for video poker, set the deck amount to '''2''', make sure jokers are not included, then draw '''10''' cards. For convenience and ease of copy-pasting, we recommend turning on "Show cards as text".<br/>The first five cards will be used as the player's starting hand, and the next five are hidden from the player, to be used as cards to distribute ''after'' the player has decided which to hold and discard. This method ensures that no unwanted repeats are created.}} = Table games = These table games are playable by sitting at one of the tables in the corresponding room.
== Baccarat ==
xA classic casino game, based on the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baccarat_(card_game) Punto Banco] variant. No-one actually gets to touch cards - you simply bet on which side of the table gets a higher score than the other... or whether they tie. === Baccarat: Bet limits ===* Players: 1-4 plus dealer* Minimum bet: 20 chips* Maximum bet: No limit* Valid bets: Multiples of 20 chips only.* Decks used: 8 === Baccarat: How to play === * Each player places their bet, choosing whether to bet on the Player side, the Banker side, or a Tie.* The objective is for the side you bet on to win - or for both sides to have the same score if you bet on a Tie.* In Baccarat, numbered cards are worth their face value, except for 10, which is worth 0. All face cards (J-Q-K) are worth 0, and Aces are worth 1.* Each side is aiming to get as close as possible to 9 points. If the score were to be 10 or more, only the rightmost digit is counted; therefore, a 13 is equal to 3, and a 10 is equal to 0.* The dealer draws two cards for the Player side, then two cards for the Banker side.** If one side gets 8 or 9 with the initial two cards, it is called a '''Natural'''. No more cards are drawn for either side. Highest score wins.** If neither side gets a '''Natural''', the Tableau is consulted. '''Tableau:'''* If the Player side has a score of '''5 or less''' with two cards, the Player side hits (gets a third card). If the Player side has a score of '''6''' or '''7''', the Player side stands (no more cards).* If the Player side stands, the Banker side plays as the Player would: hit if the score is '''5 or less''', stand on '''6''' or '''7'''.* If the Player side hits, check the Banker score:** If Banker score is '''2''' or less, Banker always hits.** If Banker score is '''3''', Banker hits, unless Player's third card is an 8.** If Banker score is '''4''', Banker hits, unless Player's third card is any of the following: 2-3-4-5-6-7** If Banker score is '''5''', Banker hits, unless Player's third card is any of the following: 4-5-6-7** If Banker score is '''6''', Banker hits, unless Player's third card is any of the following: 6-7** If Banker score is '''7''', Banker stands. A math formula can be used to determine whether to draw or stand. Take the player's third card, and count 8 as -2 and 9 as -1. Divide the third card's value by 2, round down, and add 3. If the Banker's score is equal or less than the result, the Banker side draws.* Example: Player side's third card is a 7. 7/2 = 3.5. 3.5 rounded down is 3. 3+3 = 6. If the Banker's score is 6 or less, Banker may draw. '''Payouts:'''* Bet on Player, Player side wins: You win '''2x''' your bet.* Bet on Banker, Banker side wins: You win '''1.95x''' your bet.* Bet on Tie, both sides have the same score: You win '''9x''' your bet. {{GMTip|tiptext=This is another card-based game; we recommend the [https://www.random.org/playing-cards/ random.org playing card generator].<br/>Set the deck amount to '''8''', make sure jokers are not included, then draw '''6''' cards. You may ignore the suits - only the values matter.<br/>Separate the six cards into two halves. The cards on the first half are Player side cards, and the cards on the second half are Banker side cards. Reveal the first two cards on both sides then refer to the rules to find out whether you should reveal the third card. Calculate scores accordingly.}}
== Blackjack ==
xA classic casino game. Try to beat the dealer's score, but do not go over 21, or your hand goes bust. === Blackjack: Bet limits ===* Players: 1-4 plus dealer* Minimum bet: 10 chips* Maximum bet: No limit* Decks used: 4 === Blackjack: How to play === * Each player places their bet. Once bets are placed, cards are distributed.* The dealer and every player receives 2 cards. One of the dealer's cards is face down, revealing only half of what they have.* Each player plays sequentially, and the dealer always plays last.* Card values are as follows:** Number cards = Worth their face value in points** Face cards = Worth 10 points** Ace = Worth 1 or 11 points (11 if the combined total of your other cards is 10 or less, 1 otherwise; two Aces = 12 points.)* A player may '''hit''' or '''stand''', and in certain conditions, '''double down''' or '''split'''.** '''Hit''': Get a new card.** '''Stand''': Keep your hand as is, the next player acts.** '''Double down''': Double your bet, and receive one card. You will automatically stand after receiving this card.** '''Split''': If your two starting cards are the same face value, you may place a second bet of equal value to the first to split your hand into two. You receive a second card for each, and you may hit, stand, or double down on each hand individually.* The dealer stands on soft 17. (see ''Special situations'' below to understand what soft and hard hands are.) '''Payouts:'''* If your hand's score is higher than the dealer's, or if the dealer busts (hand value went over 21), you win '''2x''' your bet.* If your hand's score is equal to the dealer's, you '''push''' and you get your bet back.* If your hand's score goes over 21, you '''bust''', causing you to lose.* If you get 21 with your starting hand (10 or face card + Ace), you get a '''blackjack'''.** If the dealer also gets a blackjack, it is counted as a push.** Otherwise, you win '''3x''' your bet. '''Special situations:'''* '''Soft and Hard:''' If your starting hand includes an Ace and you did not get a blackjack, your hand is referred to as '''soft''' as long as that first Ace is worth 11. All other hands are referred to as '''hard'''. It is always safe to hit on a soft hand. However, hitting may cause your hand's score to decrease.** For example, 7 + Ace forms a '''Soft 18'''. If you hit and get a King, it is still 18, but it becomes a '''Hard 18'''. If you hit and get a 5, your hand becomes a '''Hard 13''' (7 + 1 + 5 = 13).* '''Folding:''' If the dealer initially shows an Ace, you have the possibility to '''fold'''. Doing so will return '''0.5x'' of your bet.
== Double or Nothing ==
xAn unconventional card game that seems deceptively simple at first, but has proven diabolically addictive and very popular. The name is often shortened to ''DoN''. === DoN: Bet limits ===* Players: 1-4 plus dealer* Minimum bet: 10 chips* Maximum bet: No limit* Decks used: 4 === DoN: How to play === * Each player places an initial bet.* The dealer draws five cards face down, then reveals the first card.* The objective is to bet whether the next card will be higher, lower, or equal value to the last face-up card.** Card values in order: 2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-J-Q-K-A* If your guess is correct, your bet is '''doubled''' ('''quadrupled (4x)''' if you guessed equal value). You are then offered a choice: take your chips, or bet all of it again for another round.* If your guess is wrong, your bet is lost.* The game continues until all players have lost, taken their chips, or until all five cards have been revealed. To prevent potentially ruinous streaks of luck, a new game requires new bets. {{GMTip|tiptext=This is the simplest of the card-based casino games. As before, we recommend the [https://www.random.org/playing-cards/ random.org playing card generator].<br/>Set the deck amount to '''8''', make sure jokers are not included, then draw '''5''' cards. You may ignore the suits - only the values matter. Reveal each card as needed, then generate new cards on a new game.}}
== Roulette ==
xThe oldest of casino games. Early variants of roulette were known to the Mazes as early as Era 3. Predict where the ball will land and win big. === Roulette: Bet limits ===* Players: 1-4 plus dealer* Minimum bet: 20 chips* Maximum bet: No limit === Roulette: How to play === * Each player may place their bets on a specific number or a range of numbers (see below for the list of valid bets). A player may place more than one bet.* After each player has placed their bets, the dealer calls "No more bets," and spins the roulette, releasing the ball. To simulate such a roll, the GM rolls '''1d38'''.* The ball lands in one of the cells. A result of 1-36 corresponds to its face value. 37 corresponds to 0, and 38 corresponds to 00.* Check if the number is within the range of your bets. If they are, you win. The narrower the range, the more you win. === Roulette: Table of numbers === {| class="wikitable" style="font-size:10pt"|-| '''<span style="color:#008800">0</span>''' || || '''<span style="color:#008800">00</span>'''|-| '''<span style="color:#FF0000">1</span>''' || '''2''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">3</span>'''|-| '''4''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">5</span>''' || '''6'''|-| '''<span style="color:#FF0000">7</span>''' || '''8''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">9</span>'''|-| '''10''' || '''11''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">12</span>'''|-| '''13''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">14</span>''' || '''15'''|-| '''<span style="color:#FF0000">16</span>''' || '''17''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">18</span>'''|-| '''19''' || '''20''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">21</span>'''|-| '''22''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">23</span>''' || '''24'''|-| '''<span style="color:#FF0000">25</span>''' || '''26''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">27</span>'''|-| '''<span style="color:#FF0000">28</span>''' || '''29''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">30</span>'''|-| '''31''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">32</span>''' || '''33'''|-| '''<span style="color:#FF0000">34</span>''' || '''35''' || '''<span style="color:#FF0000">36</span>'''|} === Roulette: Valid bets and payouts === {| class="wikitable" style="font-size:10pt"|-!
