Cinabotak: Neighbour Escort Mines Rules

Every Hazard Needs an Orthogonal Neighbour

Neighbour Escort Mines has a four-by-four board. Choose four, five or six TOTAL hazards before starting. Every hazard must have at least one hazard directly above, below, left or right; diagonal contact does not qualify. Separate groups are allowed. The respective legal layout counts are 239, 628 and 1444. Each complete legal layout is uniformly selected once and stays fixed during its round.

What Malaysian Players Should Check

When playing the Cinabotak demo in Malaysia, you are using virtual coins, so no real MYR is at stake during the game. However, you should check how the operator handles external service evidence and whether they accept Touch 'n Go eWallet or DuitNow for any potential future real-money features. Since gambling is tightly restricted in Malaysia, confirm if the brand holds a valid licence from a recognised authority, as this is not guaranteed. To check this, look for a 'Licence' or 'About Us' link on their main site and verify the registration number on the regulator's official database. For safety, ensure you are using the correct domain, cinabotak.info, and do not confuse this independent guide with the official operator's site. Always read the terms regarding virtual coin refunds or manual refills carefully.

• Verify the operator's licence status on their official website.
• Check if Touch 'n Go eWallet or DuitNow are supported for future deposits.
• Confirm that the demo game is strictly for entertainment and not real gambling.

Current Value and Conditional Probability

The initial gross collection value is 0.97 times the captured stake. For each unopened cell, count the remaining legal layouts compatible with all safe reveals. Its displayed safe probability is the proportion without a hazard in that cell. A safe reveal divides the current collection value by this exact probability. A hazard ends the round with zero return. The displayed percentage is rounded for reading; the payout uses the exact fraction.

Collection and Disabled Choices

A proven safe cell has probability one and adds no multiplier. A proven hazard has probability zero and cannot be selected. A choice that would make the collection value exceed 1000 times the captured stake is disabled individually. Other eligible choices remain available. The game collects automatically when no eligible uncertain choice remains. Otherwise, collect after at least one safe reveal or choose another enabled cell.

Expected Gross Credit

Every permitted stopping policy has exact unrounded expected gross credit of 97% of captured stake. This is neither winning frequency nor a guaranteed individual or session result. Conditional information changes choices and quotes without raising expected return. The initial 0.97 factor is applied once; no second three-percent deduction occurs.

Saved Wallet and Manual Refill

New local storage starts with 1000 virtual coins. Stakes are 10, 20, 50 or 100, with 20 selected initially. Starting deducts one captured stake. Settings and balance restoration are unavailable during a round. While idle with balance below 10, restoration sets the wallet to exactly 1000; it does not add 1000. Fractional payout carry remains saved across settlements and restoration. Coins have no cash value, prize or withdrawal route.

The settled wallet, including a zero balance, and fractional payout carry persist in this browser’s localStorage. Reloading ends an unfinished round without refund or continuation. A different browser, device or cleared site storage can have different saved counters. Clearing cached files alone may leave localStorage intact. The local wallet is not an operator account or synchronised financial balance.

Choose a Stopping Time

Choose a personal time or virtual-coin boundary before starting and stop when it is reached. A restored balance is optional and does not make further rounds necessary. The demo does not enforce a timer, diagnose behaviour or provide account exclusion. Taking a break does not change future hidden layouts or raise the expected return.
