Plinko

Drop a ball through the pegs and watch where it lands. The middle is common and pays a little; the edges are rare and pay big.

How to play

  1. Set your bet, and choose how many rows (8–16) and the risk level.
  2. Press Drop — or drop 5 or 10 balls at once.
  3. The ball bounces left or right at every row and lands in a bucket. Its number is your multiplier.
  4. Higher risk makes the edges pay more and the middle pay less.

Questions

Is Plinko just luck?

Yes. Every bounce is a fair 50/50, so where the ball lands is pure chance. Strategy can only change how big the swings are (rows and risk), not the 99% average return.

Which settings pay the most?

High risk with 16 rows has the biggest edges (256×), but they come up about once in 65,536 drops. Low risk pays small amounts more often.

Can I win real money?

No. Chiplets is play money only — chips can't be bought, cashed out or exchanged for anything.
