Date of Last Update: 12 April 2024
Hit Fortune - Casino Slots is committed to endorsing responsible gameplay as a policy of customer care and social responsibility.
We believe it is our responsibility to you, our customers, to ensure that you enjoy your experience on our platforms, while remaining fully aware of the potential risks that can be associated with computer gameplay if you don't remain in control.
To ensure that you continue to enjoy safe and manageable play, we fully support responsible gameplay and have put measures in place to assist players who wish to control their play and we reserve the right to activate these measures unilaterally if, in our sole discretion, we consider them necessary.
A. KEEPING TRACK OF YOUR PLAY
Playing computer games should be treated as a fun pastime. Here are some tips to help you maintain control of your gameplay:
Keep it fun
Playing computer games is a form of entertainment, but they should be played in moderation and not to escape reality or to generate income through winning prizes.
Don't spend too much
Set a budget for your entertainment and stick to it. Only purchase Golden Coins if you can afford to. You can always make use of free play via Hit Fortune - Casino Slots alternative methods of entry (see SWEEPSTAKES RULES ).
Keep track of the time
We're thrilled you're here and we hope that you can continue playing, but don't let gameplay take up too much of your time. Just like going to the movies, we're here when you need some entertainment.
Make use of our gameplay management tools
If you need some time out, you can take a break from playing at any time by following the steps in section 2.
If you think you may be playing too often, consider the self-assessment questions in section 3 below.
B. STAYING IN CONTROL
We encourage our customers to game responsibly, so we offer a variety of responsible gameplay features.

We will endeavour to apply your limits as soon as practically possible, however, please note that this process takes a reasonable working period to implement. The limits will not come into effect until they have been fully implemented and this has been communicated to you.
