Responsible Gaming

Our Commitment

While Phantom Reels uses virtual phantom coins with no real-world value, we still believe in promoting responsible entertainment habits and player wellbeing.

Remember: This is Entertainment Only

IMPORTANT:

  • Phantom coins have NO real-world value
  • You CANNOT win real money or prizes
  • This is NOT real gambling
  • Phantom Reels is for entertainment purposes only

Age Restriction

You must be 18 years or older to use Phantom Reels. This age restriction exists even though no real money is involved, to promote responsible entertainment habits.

Healthy Gaming Habits

Even with virtual currency, it’s important to maintain balance:

Set Time Limits

  • Don’t let gaming interfere with work, relationships, or responsibilities
  • Take regular breaks
  • Set a time limit before you start playing

Understand It’s Entertainment

  • Don’t chase losses – phantom coins are just for fun
  • Remember that wins are virtual and have no real value
  • Don’t let virtual wins create unrealistic expectations about real gambling

Optional Purchases

  • Set a budget for any phantom coin purchases
  • Remember you’re buying entertainment, not an investment
  • Never spend more than you can afford on virtual goods

Account Controls

We provide tools to help you maintain control:

Self-Exclusion

  • Temporarily suspend your account (24 hours to 6 months)
  • Permanently close your account

Reality Checks

We display timestamps to help you track how long you’ve been playing.
