Hive Casino
The casino is one of the fun places to visit in the hive. Whatever happens, you will always have a chance at winning/losing tokens. You get 50/75/100 (Depends on whether you have a Silver or Gold Card) free tokens daily so it's always worth a shot. Remember, if you already have 50 tokens or more, you do not get any more the next day.
The casino consists of:
- Top 10 Tokens List
- Token Exchange
- Slot Machines
- Black Jack
- High/Low Cards
- Rat Racing
- Hive Lottery
- Casino Shop
Top 10 Most Tokens
Here you can view the account names of the current Top 10 players with the most tokens and the amount of tokens they currently have.
You can also view The Casino Bank Account which tells you how many tokens the casino has made this week, and how much profit they have made over the entire span of The Casino's existence.
Casino : Token Exchange
Here you can trade 15 credits for 1 token (10 credits for subscribers). It's costly, but if you're nearing the amount of tokens you need for a specific item then it may come in handy. You can purchase anywhere from 5 to 500 tokens at once.
Prices was reduced on the 6th August 2009, due to a suggestion in the forums. They used to be 25c for non-subscribers and 20c for subscribed people !
Slot Machines
This game is a time passer if you have tokens to spend. You may gain a small profit but it is not used for maximum token gain. If you want to earn alot of tokens, play Black Jack or High/Low cards.
The Slot Machine has four different possibilities of symbols you can roll:
3 x Apple's = 4t and you have a 4/10 Chance of getting 3 Apples
3 x Coin's = 6t and you have a 3/10 Chance of getting 3 Coins
3 x BAR's = 8t and you have a 2/10 Chance of getting 3 BARs
3 x Seven's = 10t and you have a 1/10 Chance of getting 3 7s
It costs three tokens to play one round, and you get two turns to try and get three of the same picture.
Black Jack
|
Blackjack is the most popular game in The Casino. It can be a good way to gain fast tokens, but alas, it is a good way of losing them too.
In the game of Black Jack the goal is to get the highest card value possible without going over 21 while at the same time beating the Dealer. The dealer stops hitting on 17 or 1 card after getting a soft 17.
You can bet 5 to 150 tokens a hand, and the payout ratios are as followed:
- 1:1 - On a Win
- 3:2 - On Natural Black Jack (150% X your bet)
High/Low Cards
|
Higher or Lower, often referred to as High/Low, is the 2nd most used form of gambling in the hive. It can lead to high amounts of tokens due to its very high betting limit. It is also very risky as you have to guess whether the next card will be higher/lower 4 times.
It is generally used when you have higher amounts of tokens, as the max bet is high at 600 tokens.
The goal of the game is to guess whether the next card is going to be higher or lower than the current face up card. In order to win you must correctly guess four cards in a row.
You may bet anywhere from 5 to 600 tokens and the payout ratios are as follows:
- 3:2 - On a Win
Rat Racing
Every day at 9am and 9pm, the race is run. The rat which has won is announced in a system message on side chat. If you were not online for the Side Chat message, you will know if you won depending on your tokens, and will be able to check how much you won exactly via the Player news link on the main page. If you place a bet before midnight then you cannot change it. It lists which rat last won the race, how many people won tokens on the last race, and how many times each rat has won.
There are seven different types of rats to bet on:
Nippon - Not a rat, more PaulTech's pet mouse and he is faster than any rat in the hive.
Zorg Junior - Watch out for the blur of blue as this rat races past.
Rocket Rat - Some call it cheating, others call it amusement. The rat doesn't have to survive.
Robo-Rat - The product of years of wasted time, the remote control rat.
Where He Go - A fast rat on the race course, the problem is catching it after.
Road Kill - He may only have 3 legs, but he sure can hop like a kangaroo.
Old Sparky - Magnetically charged this rat glows yellow with electricity.
Hamster in Disguise - Speed and agility are good descriptive words. But not for this rodent.
|
You can bet anywhere from 1 to 200 tokens and the payout ratios are as follows:
- Rat 1 - 1:1
- Rat 2 - 2:1
- Rat 3 - 3:1
- Rat 4 - 4:1
