Design risks

The game's core mechanics, including 'slot machine' elements, 'Wheel of Fate,' and 'Jackpot' features, heavily rely on variable rewards and near-miss mechanics, which can be highly manipulative and encourage excessive play. The design promotes infinite play and escalating commitment through continuous upgrades and collection goals, making it difficult for players to find natural stopping points. While there are no direct monetization risks, the game's design could lead to compulsive engagement.
