Recently, I have started my journey in the Arcadecolony platform and initially, I have invested a handful of my Hive for playing their potential games. At the moment I ma playing the Moonkarts, a multiplayer racing game and the Stakehouse Den which is a Web3 Social Casino games that is published by Invennium Corp and the Arcade Colony platform.
I play the Stakehouse Den relatively less frequent as the generated hot sauces in the game that is the required currency for the casino is accumulated in my refrigerator that doesn't require too much time like the Moonkarts need fro racing in the multiplayer mode for grabbing the leaderboard reward every season. The Arcade Colony DAO has assigned 80M tokens for 5 years to the Stakehouseden and it will provide eight (8) games of chance to play on the platform.
In the Stakehouseden platform, there will be 8 games per their whitepaper and the first three three games are live on the platform and they are the Roulette, video blackjack, and slots. The next game, Video poker will be added as the fourth game in coming days. The other games will be also added soon in the platform.
I want to mention some things that can be useful for many people like me as Muslim. The reward pool is not from the existing players and so the casino rewards are not Haram in my opinion. Here you are not dealing your direct assets that you have bought from the market but the secondary unlisted asset is being used which is not any kind of direct investment for gambling in my opinion.
The only limitation that I want to mention that the production of the hot sauces is so lower according to the reward ration compared to the investment perspective of the Moonkarts due to the higher leaderboard rewards. I hope the leaderboard reward will be start in the Stakehouseden very soon to attract more people in the platform. The overall playing steps are shown in the following image. I am not going to discuss them as it is similar with other web3 games that deals with the NFTs and NFT packs!
Blackjack
Blackjack is the most easiest to win game in the Stakehouseden platform in my opinion and I win the match many times as there is 50% winning chance for the this game. Most of the time I play this game in the platform.
In Blackjack, you have to deal with the computer dealer as your opponent. The rule for the game is to beat the dealer by having a hand value of your total cards closer to 21 without going over. If the total card's value is over 21 then it is “bust” and it results in an immediate loss.
For the game each card values are as the following -
Number cards (2-10) are worth their face value.
Face cards (Jack, Queen, King) are worth 10.
Aces are worth 1 or 11, whichever benefits the hand more.
My tips for playing this game is to be very critical for pulling a new card that can instantly make a sum of the cards over 21 and you can loose. You should not bet very high as often you can not win so, less bet is the key to success. The payout of the game is like: the inning hands pay 1:1, where the Blackjack usually pays 3:2 but it is in less possibility.
Slots
Sots is the most popular game in the platform and which is also very popular in the real casinos also. The Jackpot is the term for winning the most reward is often so lucrative for the players.
In this game, players can spin reels filled with various symbols, aiming to land matching combinations that will make a win where there will be different payouts for different symbols. The winning combination of the same kind of three symbols can be many as shown in the following picture for the Stakehouseden platform.
Here are the rewards payout of different symbols and the possibility for the symbols that creates a winning combinations as follows.
Following are the payout multipliers for each slot symbol:
Cherry = x2
Watermelon = x2
Diamond = x4
Spade = x4
Heart = x5
Club = x5
Four clover leaf = x7
Golden Horseshoe = x15
Seven = x25
Icon probabilities (per reel)
Cherry, Watermelon: 18%
Diamond, Spade, Heart, Club: 12%
Four clover leaf: 7%
Golden Horseshoe: 5%
Seven: 4%
Roulette
The first game of the Stakehouseden is the Roulette, which is a very popular casino game, but it is very difficult to win here as it needs extreme luck to win your profit. Similarly, the rewards are higher here for a lower chance of winning.
This digital simulation of the casino game can entertain players with the thrill of betting on the outcome of a spinning roulette wheel. The goal is to win $colony tokens by placing your bets on different numbers.
Most of the time I don't play this game, but if you want to learn the full rules of the game, you can visit their whitepaper by clicking here.
Still, I am going to learn more about the tricks and strategies to have more rewards, and I want you to share your knowledge on the game. If you have and queries about the game, please let me know in the comments, I will try my best to answer your queries.
Thank you so much for your time and attention.
I will catch you at the next.
