Fifteen independent cells
Each proof generates 15 independent choices between ink and paper, each with a 50% probability. The board is generated once when a proof starts; the staggered reveal of five reels animates that result. Previous wins, losses and button timing do not change the distribution of the next proof. This does not certify an external casino’s randomness.
What UK players should check before playing
When playing Kartac from the United Kingdom, you must verify that the operator holds a valid licence from the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC). This ensures your funds are protected and the games are fair. Always confirm that the site accepts payments in British pounds (GBP) via methods you trust, such as debit cards, PayPal, or bank transfer. The UKGC website provides a public register where you can search for the operator's name to verify their status.
- Check the UKGC licence number in the footer.
- Confirm GBP currency and local payment options.
- Ensure GamStop integration if you use the scheme.
What 96% return means
Exact enumeration of all 32 possible rows gives an expected return of 96% of virtual stakes in each mode. For 100 coins staked, the expected average return is 96 and expected loss is 4. This is an expectation across many proofs, not a promised result for one play or a short session. A larger stake does not improve return.
Separate strokes and row stakes
Paper separates contiguous ink groups. Ink–paper–ink–paper–ink contains three strokes; five adjacent ink cells contain one. A row pays only when its stroke count matches the selected mode. Fifteen of 32 possible rows qualify for either one or two strokes, and one qualifies for three. Each of the three rows uses one third of the total stake and its return is added to the others.
Three-stroke worked example
A total stake of 30 allocates 10 coins to each row. In three-stroke mode, ink–paper–ink–paper–ink returns 30.72 times its row stake, or 307.2 coins. If the other two rows do not qualify, that is the proof’s entire gross return, not its net profit. The game credits whole coins and carries the fractional remainder into later payouts. Its table explains all modes.
How our independent Stroke Reels demo works
This independent demo has three rows and five reels. Each of its 15 cells shows ink or paper with a 50% probability. Before making a proof, choose one, two or three separate ink strokes per row. Adjacent ink cells form one stroke; paper separates them. The first and last cells are not adjacent.
Each row uses one third of the stake. Only a row with the selected number of strokes pays. Its return is based on the square of its ink-cell count and an exact calibration of all 32 possible rows. Long-run return is 96% in every mode, not a promise for an individual proof. The in-game table shows row-return multipliers including that row’s stake.
You start with 1000 virtual coins with no cash value. The balance and fractional coins persist in this browser. A free refill sets a low balance to 1000 coins. No registration, deposit or prizes are involved, and the demo does not reproduce an external operator’s software. Auto runs at most ten proofs and can be stopped.
Stake, auto and mobile play
Choose a stake of 10, 20, 50, 100 or 200 coins and one, two or three strokes. Stake and mode controls lock during a proof so the preselected rules apply. Auto runs at most ten proofs. Stop cancels future scheduled proofs while the current proof settles. The same demo rules apply on mobile and desktop.

Is the Kartac demo game licensed by the UKGC?
The demo on kartac.info is an independent showcase. You must check the main operator's site for UKGC licensing details, as the demo itself is not necessarily the licensed product.
How do I check if Kartac accepts GBP?
Visit the operator's cashier section. Look for GBP symbols or UK-specific methods like Visa Debit or PayPal. The demo uses virtual coins, not real currency.
