Pinball Rush should feel like arcade fun, never a route to easy money

Important Notice

Slots can hook you the same way any game can. If the rush from Pinball Rush starts hurting your wallet, your sleep, or people close to you, get help without waiting. You're not the only one, and someone is ready to listen day or night.

Signs of Problem Gambling

  • Spending more money than you can afford to lose
  • Neglecting work, family, or other responsibilities
  • Chasing losses by gambling more
  • Borrowing money or selling possessions to gamble
  • Lying about gambling habits
  • Feeling anxious or depressed about gambling
  • Being unable to stop or reduce gambling

Tips for Safe Gambling

Set a Budget

Load the machine with money you can lose and stop when the credits run dry.

Set Time Limits

Set a timer so one more ball doesn't turn into an all-nighter.

Never Chase Losses

Tilting harder won't win it back — accept the drop and move on.

Take Breaks

Step away from the board regularly to stay sharp.
