Responsible Social Play

Our Commitment to Responsible Entertainment

Even though our platform involves no real money and is purely for entertainment, we recognize the importance of promoting healthy gaming behaviors. We encourage all players to:

• Play for fun and entertainment only
• Set personal time limits for gameplay
• Take regular breaks during gaming sessions
• Never let gaming interfere with daily responsibilities
• Remember that virtual coins have no real-world value
• Keep gaming as one of many leisure activities

Healthy Gaming Guidelines

Set Time Limits

We recommend setting personal time limits for your gaming sessions. Consider:

• Deciding how much time you want to spend before you start playing
• Using timers or alarms to remind you when to take breaks
• Balancing gaming with other activities and responsibilities
• Not playing when tired, stressed, or as a way to avoid problems

Take Regular Breaks

Taking breaks during gaming sessions is important for your well-being:

• Step away from the screen every 30-60 minutes
• Stretch, move around, and rest your eyes
• Stay hydrated and maintain good posture
• Use break time to check in with yourself about how you're feeling

Keep It Fun

Remember that social casino gaming should be entertaining:

• If you're not having fun, it's time to take a break
• Don't chase virtual losses - they have no real value
• Celebrate virtual wins but keep perspective - it's just entertainment
• Play because you enjoy it, not as a way to cope with stress

Recognizing Problem Gambling

While Crimson Zephyr Play does not involve real money gambling, we want to help you recognize signs of problem gambling behavior in general:

Warning Signs Include:

• Spending more time or money on gambling than you can afford
• Feeling the need to gamble with increasing amounts of money
• Trying unsuccessfully to cut back or stop gambling
• Feeling restless or irritable when trying to reduce gambling
• Gambling to escape problems or relieve negative feelings
• Lying to family members or others about gambling activities
• Jeopardizing relationships, job, or opportunities because of gambling
• Relying on others to provide money for gambling-related financial problems

If you recognize these signs in yourself or someone you know, please seek help immediately.

For Family and Friends

If someone you care about has a gambling problem, you can help:

• Learn about problem gambling: Understanding the issue is the first step
• Talk openly and honestly: Express your concerns without judgment
• Encourage them to seek help: Offer to support them in reaching out to resources
• Set boundaries: Protect yourself financially and emotionally
• Seek support for yourself: Organizations like Gam-Anon offer support for family members
• Don't enable: Avoid covering up or bailing out gambling-related problems
