Voluntary Breaks and Personal Limits
Playing Ferry Locks is intended for an audience aged 18 and older, though no strict age verification is enforced. Since the game lacks external safeguards, players must monitor their own spending and time. You can take breaks at any time, but note that reloading the page discards any unfinished round without refund. Setting personal limits on stake size, such as the default 25 coins, helps manage your virtual balance effectively.
No Cash Value and Local Storage
All winnings in Ferry Locks are virtual coins stored in your browser's local storage. These coins have no real-world cash value and cannot be exchanged for money. The game does not feature a cashier, deposit, or withdrawal system. Your balance is reset to 1000 coins manually if it falls below 10, but this is a local mechanic, not a financial guarantee. Clearing your browser cache will remove your saved wallet and fractional carry data.
Game Mechanics and Risk
In Ferry Locks, you choose an exit lock from 1 to 4 before starting. Each lock has a specific survival chance, with payouts ranging from 1.2x to 4.8x gross. The game settles automatically when you reach your chosen exit or fail. There is no manual stop or autoplay feature. The expected return is approximately 96%, but outcomes are independent, and past results do not influence future rounds.
