Wallet and Refill Rules
A fresh wallet starts at 1000 virtual coins. While idle below 10, manual refill sets the integer balance to exactly 1000 and preserves fractional carry. Settled balance, including zero, and fractional carry persist in this browser when its site storage remains available. Reloading an unfinished round loses that round without refund or resume: its stake has already been debited. The demo has no account, deposits or withdrawals; its coins have no cash value.
Game Mechanics and Controls
Spiral No Neighbours uses a four-by-four board. Choose 3, 4 or 5 mines; the initial legal-board counts are 364, 715 and 792 respectively. Each legal board is equally likely. Read cells in zero-based order 0,1,2,3,7,11,15,14,13,12,8,4,5,6,10,9: two consecutive entries cannot both contain mines. This reading-order rule does not forbid every geometrically adjacent pair.
Stake choices are 10,20,50,100,200 virtual coins. Stake, mine count and refill are locked during a round; sound remains available. Manual bank is available after at least one safe reveal. Certain mines and safe transitions above 1000 times stake are disabled. All safe cells revealed or no eligible reveal remaining automatically banks the current quote. There is no automatic round queue.
Payout Math and Probabilities
After a safe reveal, gross quote = 0.96 × captured stake × initial legal-board count ÷ remaining compatible-board count. The stake is debited at the start; gross return includes the returned stake, so net round change is gross return minus captured stake. A mine returns zero. With 3 mines, safely revealing cell 0 leaves 286 of 364 boards and gives 1.221818… times stake; safely revealing cells 0,1,2 leaves 165 and gives 2.117818… times stake. Cell indices here start at zero; button labels start at one.
For a stated safe path followed by banking, its survival probability is remaining boards ÷ initial boards. Multiplying this by its gross quote gives an expected gross return of 0.96 times stake. This expectation concerns legal-board sampling and eligible strategies, not a promised session return. Integer wallet credits round down gross return plus saved fractional carry, retaining the remainder for later settlements.
Storage and Privacy
The game saves demo balance and fractional carry in browser localStorage. Clearing cached files alone may leave this site storage intact; removing site storage can reset these local values. This guide declares Google Fonts and uses a Statinside counter in the page build. These observations are not a complete inventory of network requests or data processing, and do not establish anonymity, a retention period or absence of other processing.
Identity and Scope
This guide is independent. The queried name 3phase is not established as a verified operator, app, or service by this page. No licence, bonus, payment method, KYC process, or support channel is confirmed. The demo does not reproduce any outside product. The page explains this guide's own scope; it does not invent legal releases or establish an outside company's policies.
Responsible Use
This guide is intended for adults aged 18 and over; that audience policy does not establish local law or implement an age check. Choose a personal time or virtual-coin limit and take breaks. The interface has no account-level blocking or self-exclusion tool. If play interferes with daily life, consider appropriate qualified help in your area.
Frequently asked questions
Does the demo have an account login?
No. The demo has no account-login flow. It uses a local virtual wallet with no cash value.
How does the refill work?
Manual refill sets the balance to exactly 1000 when idle and below 10. It preserves fractional carry. It does not add 1000 coins to the existing balance.
Is 3phase the official operator?
This guide does not establish an outside operator’s identity or licence. It provides its own original virtual-coin demo.
