Our games are not a prize draw, and a prize draw is not gambling
Hit Engine builds slot games, which are played on Stake Engine under Stake’s own terms and Stake’s own responsible-gambling controls. We are not yet running a prize draw — this page describes how one will work once entries open. Any prize draw we run ourselves is a separate thing: no purchase, wager, or spend is required to enter or win. The free postal route described on Free entry has exactly the same odds as entering with a bet. Entering or winning a Hit Engine prize draw does not require you to gamble.
A demonstration round is published at /raffle. It is a fixture: no prize, no entrants, and the entry list is synthetic. It exists so the draw verifier can be checked against real cryptography before a real round opens, and it is labelled as such wherever it appears.
If gambling is affecting you
If gambling stops being fun, these independent organisations offer free support, wherever you are based:
- GamCare — advice, support, and free counselling.
- BeGambleAware — information and support for anyone worried about their own or someone else’s gambling.
- Gambling Therapy — free support in multiple languages.
- GamStop — free self-exclusion from UK-licensed gambling sites.
Self-exclusion
We do not operate a casino, so we have no player accounts of our own to exclude. If you want to stop gambling on Stake, self-exclusion is set through Stake’s own account settings, or through GamStop above. If you want to stop receiving communications from us about a prize draw, contact us at the address on Terms and we will act on that request.
