Responsible Gaming Principles

Key rules for safe gaming in Minesdrop

🎯

Play for Entertainment

Minesdrop is created for relaxation, not for earning. Perceive the game as leisure, not as a source of income.

πŸ’°

Set Limits

Use only funds whose loss is not critical. Don't spend money needed for vital needs.

⏰

Control Time

Determine the maximum time for gaming sessions. Don't let the game interfere with work, family, or other important activities.

🧠

Play Sober

Don't play while intoxicated, under the influence of substances, or under strong emotional stress. Make decisions only with a clear mind.

🚫

Don't Chase Losses

After losing, don't try to recover funds by increasing bets. Accept losses as part of the gaming process and avoid emotional decisions.

πŸ‘₯

Don't Play Alone

Discuss your gaming experience with loved ones. If the game has a negative impact on life, don't hesitate to seek support.
