Responsible Gaming

GameTwist offers various skill and casino games, for which users adopt the virtual currency („Twists“) as a wager. Frequent gaming - even with virtual currency - can lead to problematic gaming or the development of a gaming addiction. Being aware of the symptoms is vital in addressing a suspected gaming addiction.

With this simple self-test, you can find out whether or not you have a gaming problem:

  • Are you leaving your family alone for long periods of time in order to take part in games?
  • Are you spending more time gaming than you had planned or intended to, ignoring other duties and responsibilities?
  • Are you arguing frequently with your partner about spending too much time and money on gaming? Do you find that you cannot stop or limit yourself?
  • Are you buying Twist packs with family money needed for rent/mortgage, schooling, medical needs, groceries, clothes or heating?
  • Do you feel you have to take part in games to get to spend time with people you understand?
  • When you are with your family, at work or at social events, are you constantly thinking about your next game?
  • Do you find yourself trying to take part in gaming during office hours even if it could cost you your job?

If you have answered 'yes' to any of the questions above, we suggest that you take action immediately BEFORE it becomes a serious problem.

There are many organisations that can help you address your problem:

When it comes to responsible gaming, „self-protection“ is key. GameTwist therefore offers a number of measures to help you protect yourself from excessive gaming.
