Before you start playing, understand how the virtual wallet works. It uses integer credits and fractional carry. This means your balance is calculated in whole numbers, but small fractions are kept for accuracy during gameplay.
No cashier or cash exchange
This demo has no deposits, withdrawals, payment methods or exchangeable winnings. Its locally stored play coins cannot be converted to money. Nothing on the payments page verifies an outside Melolo service’s fees, processing times, account checks or payment rules.
What Philippines Players Should Check
Since this is a free demo, you do not need to deposit GCash or Maya. However, if you plan to use the real game later, you should verify the details yourself. Always check the official Melolo website to see if they accept GCash or Maya for real transactions. You can find this in the "Payments" or "Cashier" section of their site.
Also, check if Melolo is licensed by PAGCOR, the national regulator in the Philippines. Look for a license number at the bottom of their official homepage. For safety, ensure the site uses HTTPS. Remember, this demo page does not hold your money. If you deposit real money, it goes to Melolo, not this demo site.
- Check if GCash or Maya are supported on the main Melolo site.
- Verify PAGCOR licensing status on the official site.
- Confirm that this demo uses only virtual, non-withdrawable coins.
Local balance and manual restoration
A fresh wallet starts at 1,000 play coins. The balance, including zero, and the fractional payout remainder are stored in this browser’s localStorage. When no round is active and the balance is below 10, Restore balance sets it to exactly 1,000. It does not add 1,000 or clear the stored fraction. Play coins have no cash value.
Settings are chosen before starting
Select a stake of 10, 20, 50 or 100 play coins; 20 is the default. Choose 3, 4 or 5 hazards; 3 is the default. Stake, hazard count, restoration and a second round are locked during an active round. Pick an eligible cell selects among currently allowed cells; it does not guarantee safety or change the hidden layout.
Gross credit and fractional carry
At settlement the wallet receives floor(raw gross return + stored fractional carry). The remaining fraction is saved for later settlements; a zero-return round leaves it unchanged. Gross return includes any returned stake, so it differs from net profit. The expected raw gross-return benchmark is 97% for completed valid stopping policies; it does not promise a winning session or a particular integer credit.
An unfinished round is not resumed
Reloading or closing during an active round ends it without refund, payout or continuation. The captured stake remains deducted, while carry from earlier settlements remains stored. The revealed cells and hidden layout are not saved for resumption. On loading again, stake 20 and 3 hazards are restored as defaults.
