What a game must do beyond the maths.
The certification layer: what happens when a round is cut off, the information a game must show while you play, and how the same title is classified market by market.A game’s odds are only half its integrity. These 3 references — grounded in GLI-19 and the UK Gambling Commission’s technical standards — explain the rules a certified real-money game obeys once the reels stop.
Game classification by market
The same game is a different legal object in every market — and its class decides which licence, rules, taxes and certifications bite.
Open →Game recovery (interrupted rounds)
What happens when a round is cut off mid-play — and why a dropped connection can never re-roll an outcome or quietly pocket a stake.
Open →The in-game user panel
The information a real-money game must show while you play — balance, stakes, time, outcomes — and the design rules it must obey on speed, autoplay and celebrations.
Open →Education, not advice. This explains what certification standards require so you can read a game clearly — it is a teaching summary, not legal or compliance advice. Requirements vary by market. 18+.
