Keep it a splash of colour

Why a free alley is still 18+

Social casino games share the visuals, sounds and tempo of real gambling. Paint Pot Alley is aimed only at adults above the legal gambling age and is not meant for anyone under 18. We ask about age twice: on the banner you first see, and as a tick you must give when you make your account.

Things Pigmund will never do

• Run, sponsor or promote real-money gambling.
• Award prizes with any real-world value.
• Sell coins or slip in-app purchases into a game.
• Wave you off to gambling operators or affiliates.
• Use timers or streak counters to pull you back down the alley.

A straight word from the scaffold

A free game can be set up to feel lavish, and it tops up your pot without charge. Real-money games do neither. Doing well in the alley is no hint of how you would do with money on the line.

Drips to keep an eye on

• Playing far longer than you intended.
• Getting cross when it is time to stop.
• Using the reels to dodge a low mood.
• It is pushing out sleep, work or time with others.
• You catch yourself looking for a real-money version of the walls.

Staying in charge of the brush

• Settle on a finishing time before you pick up the brush.
• Keep autoplay switched off and spin by hand.
• Down tools for regular breaks.
• Clear this site’s data to reset it all, or block the site through your device settings if you want to quit for good.
