Keeping it fun
- Decide how long you want to play before you start, then stick to it.
- Take regular breaks. Stand up, stretch, look away from the screen.
- Don't play when you're tired, upset or when you should be doing something else.
- Remember: coins have no value and winning in a free game says nothing about real-money gambling.
Signs it's time for a break
- You're playing for longer than you meant to
- You feel irritable or restless when you stop
- Games are getting in the way of sleep, work, study or people
- You feel tempted to move on to real-money gambling
