Aurora Wheel
On a clear winter night the northern lights ripple across the sky like a slow wheel. Ours is painted in the old rosemaling colours: red, ochre, deep blue and pine green. Give it a turn and see where it settles.
The game
Purse: 0 coins
Every turn costs 40 coins.
The arrow at the top decides. Ready when you are.
How to play
- Press Turn the wheel. Forty coins leave your purse as it starts.
- The wheel spins and slows down by itself. You don't need to do anything else.
- Whatever number stops beneath the red arrow at the top is added to your purse. Fields marked 0 return nothing.
How it pays
| Field | Fields on the wheel | Chance per turn |
|---|---|---|
| 150 coins | 1 | 1 in 12 (8.3%) |
| 100 coins | 1 | 1 in 12 (8.3%) |
| 60 coins | 1 | 1 in 12 (8.3%) |
| 40 coins stake back, not a win | 2 | 2 in 12 (16.7%) |
| 20 coins | 3 | 3 in 12 (25.0%) |
| 0 coins | 4 | 4 in 12 (33.3%) |
Add every field together and divide by twelve and you get 37.5 coins: the average a turn hands back over time, against the 40 it costs. Only three fields out of twelve return more than you put in.
Coins on Norske Spill are virtual. They have no cash value, cannot be bought or cashed out, and this game is for adults aged 18 and over. When a round hands back exactly what it cost, that is your stake returned, not a win.
