How Mosaic Seams Works
The game displays four independent tiles, each showing one of three equally likely shapes. Players count matching adjacent pairs across the three seams. Each match returns 0.96 times the stake. The total gross return can be 0, 0.96, 1.92, or 2.88 times the stake. The expected return is 0.96 times the stake per round.
Stakes, Payouts, and Settlement
Stakes are set at 10, 25, 50, or 100 coins, with 25 as the default. The stake is deducted once at the start and persists before animation. Payouts are computed in hundredths, with fractional carry saved separately. Automatic settlement occurs at the end of the reveal or when the user chooses to exit. There is no manual stop or autoplay.
Wallet Mechanics and Controls
The initial balance is 1000 coins. A manual refill is available only when the balance drops below 10, setting the balance to 1000 rather than adding to it. Whole coins are stored in localStorage, while fractional hundredths are kept separately. Reloading the page discards any unfinished round without a refund. Controls are disabled while a round is active.
Frequently asked questions
Does reloading the page refund my stake?
No. Reloading discards the unfinished round without refund or resuming settlement. The stake remains deducted.
How is the payout calculated?
Payouts are based on matching adjacent pairs. Each match returns 0.96 times the stake. The total is the sum of matches, computed in hundredths.
