Voluntary Breaks and Personal Limits
There are no enforced age gates or automatic time limits in this demo. You are responsible for setting your own limits on how many rounds to play or how many virtual coins to spend. You can stop at any time by simply refreshing the page, which discards the current round without refunding the deducted stake. These limits are personal choices, not clinical guarantees of responsible play.
Virtual Coins and No Cash Value
The Ferry Locks demo operates entirely with virtual coins that have no real-world cash value. You cannot deposit, withdraw, or convert these coins into currency. The initial balance is set at one thousand coins, and you can manually restore it to this amount only when idle and below ten coins. Since there is no cashier or payment flow, your activity is purely for entertainment.
Observed Data and Local Storage
Your wallet balance, fractional hundredths, and pending round flags are stored in your browser's local storage. This data is reset if you reload the page, meaning unfinished rounds are discarded without refund. Third-party analytics like Statinside may track visits, and Google Fonts are used for rendering. Clearing your browser cache will remove this local data.
