Original Casino Games Guide

What Are Casino Originals?

Casino originals are proprietary games designed in-house by sweepstakes casinos. Unlike slots or table games from third-party providers, originals are unique to specific platforms and typically feature:

• Provably fair mechanics — you can verify each outcome independently
• Higher RTPs — often 97-99%, better than most slots
• Simple, fast gameplay — rounds complete in seconds
• Adjustable risk — you control the risk/reward ratio

Currently, Stake.us has the most comprehensive originals library. WOW Vegas and Pulsz are also adding original games.

Popular Original Games

Crash

How it works: Place a bet and watch a multiplier climb from 1.00x upward. Cash out before it “crashes” (drops to 0). The longer you wait, the higher the potential payout — but crash at the wrong moment and you lose your bet.

RTP: ~97% (varies by platform)
Strategy: Setting auto-cashout at 1.5-2x provides consistent small wins. Higher multiplier targets (10x+) offer massive payouts but hit much less frequently.

Plinko

How it works: Drop a ball from the top of a triangular peg board. It bounces randomly and lands in a prize slot at the bottom. Center slots pay less; edge slots pay more (up to 1000x).

RTP: ~97-99%
Strategy: Choose your risk level (low/medium/high) and number of rows. More rows = more randomness. Low risk gives frequent small wins; high risk gives rare but huge payouts.

Mines

How it works: A 5×5 grid contains hidden mines. Click tiles to reveal gems (multiplier increases) or mines (game over). You choose how many mines (1-24) before starting — more mines = higher multipliers per safe tile.

RTP: ~97%
Strategy: With 3-5 mines, aim to uncover 4-6 tiles before cashing out. This balances risk and reward effectively.

Dice

How it works: Set a target number (1-100) and choose Over or Under. Roll the dice — if the result matches your prediction, you win. The further from 50% your target, the higher the payout.

RTP: ~99% (one of the highest RTP games available)
Strategy: Conservative targets near 50% (like Over 49) give ~2x payouts with ~49% win rate. The near-99% RTP makes this one of the best-value games at any sweepstakes casino.

Limbo

How it works: Choose a target multiplier. A random multiplier is generated — if it meets or exceeds your target, you win that payout. Simple as that.

RTP: ~97-99%
Strategy: Low targets (1.1-1.5x) win frequently but pay little. Higher targets win rarely but can deliver massive payouts. Find your comfort zone.

Keno

How it works: Pick 1-10 numbers from a grid of 40. The game draws 10 random numbers. The more matches, the bigger your payout.

RTP: ~95-97%
Strategy: Picking 4-6 numbers balances hit frequency with payout size. Selecting all 10 numbers offers jackpot-tier prizes but wins are extremely rare.

Originals vs. Slots: Which Is Better?

Bottom line: Originals offer better mathematical value (higher RTP), while slots provide more entertainment variety. Many players enjoy both — using originals for efficient SC play and slots for entertainment.
