Responsible Gaming

Playing Responsibly

Entertainment games are at their best when they are a fun, relaxed part of your day — not a source of stress, anxiety, or compulsion. Here are some habits we recommend:

• Set a time limit before you begin a session and stick to it.
• Take regular breaks, especially during longer sessions.
• Do not play when you are tired, upset, or using alcohol.
• Remember: outcomes are determined by chance. Patterns do not predict future results.
• If you find yourself thinking about the platform frequently during your day, consider taking a break.

Signs to Watch For

While our platform involves no real money, the following behaviours can sometimes indicate a broader relationship with gaming that deserves attention:

• Spending significantly more time gaming than you intended
• Feeling irritable or restless when not able to play
• Using gaming to escape from difficult feelings or situations
• Neglecting responsibilities, relationships, or sleep because of gaming
• Feeling unable to stop even when you want to

If any of these resonate with you, we encourage you to reach out to a support organisation.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need a break from Westminster Oak Club, you can stop using the platform at any time. You can also clear your browser's localStorage to remove your account entirely. If you have concerns about your gaming behaviour in general — including at real-money platforms — the organisations below can provide confidential support.
