What are Random Number Generators?

A Random Number Generator is a computerised algorithm that generates a random number that which provides a random spin or draw (playing cards) ensuring that video pokies and table games cannot be manipulated. The only programming that goes into Random Number Generators is that which ensures a minimum Return-to-Player (RTP) rate at reputable online casinos. The minimum RTP permitted by the Malta Gaming Authority is 92%, with Wildz delivering an RTP that provides, on average, 96.5%.

Do tricks and skills help players of online pokies?

When it comes to online slots, there’s no skill to be learned when it comes to gameplay. Pokies are games of chance, no tips or tricks can influence the outcomes of spins or bonus rounds. Random Number Generators ensure that each game is unpredictable, which, in turn, provides the Fair Gaming experience in which every player has the same odds of winning or losing.

Free Spins, multipliers and other mechanics provide great entertainment precisely because of the random nature of these games.

A better understanding of game mechanics and their potential influence on the outcomes of games comes with some experience, as well as some understanding of volatility in pokies. Volatility describes the risks of losing money, it also determines the amount of money you stand to eventually win, with a bit of luck. Experience is not equal to being able to beat the game, but it can give you an opportunity to better manage your bankroll.

Responsible Gaming

Responsible Gaming, also known as Safer Gambling or RG, is the set of social responsibility initiatives by the gambling industry – including governments, regulators, operators, and vendors – to ensure the integrity and fairness of their operations, and to promote awareness of the harms associated with gambling, such as gambling addiction, financial abuse, personal neglect. While RNGs play a part in this, operators must provide Responsible Gaming resources to players and players should exercise RG at all times.

RNGs and licencing

The use of licenced and regulated online casinos is advised. Bodies such as the Malta Gaming Authority have strict rules that must be adhered to before licences are provided, with practices, including those that incorporate RNGs, being maintained at all times. These are meant to protect the player.

The best way to explore Random Number Generators is to play some games. You can even play many games for free in Demo Mode at Wildz Casino to find out how pokies deliver RNG-based results in different ways. Take a browse through the game lobby to see if any titles catch your eye.
