Payout DNA

Every slot pays 96%. None of them pay the same way.

Certified RTP is a spike — essentially every game on the platform targets about 96%, so it separates nothing. What differs is how that 96% comes back: in small frequent wins, or almost never and then enormously. Pick a game and this finds the others whose payouts arrive in the same shape.

What else plays like this

One game sits at the centre. Each arm running out from it is one of that game's modes — its base spin, each of its bonus buys — and every star on that arm is a different slot whose closest-matching mode lands near it. The nearer the star, the more alike the two pay.

How to read it

The centreis the game you picked. Everything on screen is measured against it.
Each armis one mode of that game. A game with a base spin and three buys has four arms, and they are matched separately because they pay nothing alike.
Each staris another slot — placed on the arm it matches best, at the mode of its own that matches best.
Distanceis how differently the two pay. Close in means the wins land in the same sizes, at the same frequencies, with the same drought between them.

The match is made across the whole payout curve — how often a round pays nothing, how often it pays double, how often it pays a hundred times the bet, all the way to the top award — not on hit rate and volatility alone. Two games can share both of those summary numbers and still play nothing alike, and this is built to tell them apart.

Payouts are counted in multiples of the bet, not of what a mode costs to enter, so a bonus buy sits far to the right of the same game's base spin and matches other bonus buys — which is the comparison worth making. Figures come from each game's own lookup table, the file the operator's fairness system uses to settle real bets: 263 of 3,360 games on the platform have been read so far.

Base modes only, and one row per game. Volatility is the standard deviation of the payout in bet multiples — a buy's is inflated by its entry cost, so ranking buys alongside base spins would put the expensive ones on top by construction rather than by behaviour.
