Minigames
The Minigames (also called the Casino) are a set of gold-gambling games available in the Tavern. They provide high-risk, high-reward entertainment and contribute to quest progress (via the casino_win event type).
Access them via /gamble (or through the Tavern hub). You bet a chosen amount of gold (minimum varies by game) and play against the house or other mechanics. Winnings can be substantial, but losses are permanent.
All games tie into the broader quest system — net positive winnings tick casino_win progress for daily contracts and Horizon paths.
Classic card game against the dealer.
- Goal: Get as close to 21 as possible without going over.
- Controls: Hit, Stand, Double Down (early game only).
- Payouts: 1:1 for normal win, 2.5:1 for Blackjack (natural 21).
- Push (tie) returns your bet.
The dealer hits until 17 or higher. Busting (over 21) loses.
Bet on color, parity (even/odd), or a specific number (0-36).
- Wheel spin determines the result (red/black/green 0).
- Payouts:
- Color or parity: 1:1 (double your bet)
- Number: 35:1
- 0 is green and loses on color/parity bets.
Use the modal for number bets.
Watch a multiplier rocket climb. Cash out before it crashes for your bet × current multiplier.
- Starts at 1.00x and grows exponentially (roughly e^(0.06t) with variance).
- House edge ~1% via the crash point generation.
- Cash out at any time while it's running.
- If it crashes before you cash out, you lose the full bet.
- Auto-lose on timeout if AFK.
High tension — risk increases sharply after 2x.
Bet on one of four horses in a race to the finish (20 units).
- Horses have different speed profiles (steady vs. high variance).
- Catch-up mechanics help trailing horses.
- Winner pays 4x your bet.
- Race animates live with periodic updates.
Pick your champion and watch the drama unfold.
- Start small to learn the mechanics — the games are fair but variance is high.
- Blackjack and Roulette have the most "skill" elements (basic strategy for BJ, betting patterns for Roulette).
- Crash and Horse Racing are pure risk/reward with heavy gambling appeal.
- Track your net wins for quest progress — big sessions help complete
casino_winobjectives. - Never gamble more than you can afford to lose. The house always has an edge over time.
- Games are available 24/7 in the Tavern and integrate with daily check-ins and other economy sinks.
Minigames serve as a fun, optional gold sink/source that adds variety and social bragging rights (via big wins) without affecting core progression.
Fortune favors the bold... and the lucky.
