Cloudbet Originals
Cloudbet Mines: the 25-tile game you can verify yourself
Mines is an in-house Cloudbet Original: 25 tiles, a mine count you choose yourself, a cash-out button that works after any revealed tile, and a 99% RTP backed by a seed pipeline you can recompute by hand. No other game on this site lets you check the maths like this.
The game
Twenty-five tiles, your mine count, your exit
A round of Mines starts with your settings, not your luck. You pick a stake between 0.10 and 250 EUR and choose how many of the 25 tiles hide mines. Every safe tile you reveal raises the multiplier, and the cash-out button stays live after every single tile, so the round ends when you say so or when a mine says it for you.

Cash out
Available after any revealed tile
That exit control is the whole difference from a crash game. Aviator takes the decision away from you the moment the plane climbs; Mines hands it back after every tile, which changes both the pace and the psychology of a session. A player who cashes out after two tiles every round plays a completely different game from one who always pushes for five, on exactly the same grid and at exactly the same 99% return. Control changes behaviour.
Verification
The seed pipeline that lets you check any round
Provably fair at Cloudbet is a procedure, not a badge. The operator publishes a technical breakdown of it, and the steps below are enough for any player to audit a finished round with the on-site provably fair calculator.
- Before the round, the server commits to a hidden seed by publishing its SHA3-256 hash, so the outcome cannot be changed after you bet.
- Your browser supplies a client seed, and a nonce counts the rounds, so every round draws from a unique combination.
- After the round, the server seed is revealed, and SHAKE256 turns the seed pair plus nonce into the mine positions through rejection sampling, which keeps every tile equally likely.
- You paste server seed, client seed and nonce into the calculator, and the tool reproduces the exact mine layout you just played.
If the recomputed layout matches what you saw, the round was dealt before you touched a tile. No slot in the lobby offers that level of proof, because certified RNGs ask you to trust a lab, while this pipeline lets you redo the maths yourself. The calculator sits on the operator's own provably fair page, and it still holds up because the committed seed cannot be rewritten after the fact. The proof is yours.
Risk dial
Mine count is a risk dial, not a strategy
Setting three mines against setting fifteen does not change the 99% return. It changes the shape of the round. Few mines mean most tiles are safe and each pays a small step up, while many mines flip the grid into a minefield where one safe tile already pays a fat multiplier and the second asks real courage.
| Mine setting | Round shape | Suits |
|---|---|---|
| 1 to 3 mines | Long safe streaks, small steps | Patient sessions, steady cash-outs |
| 4 to 10 mines | Balanced risk per tile | Players mixing safe tiles and exits |
| 11+ mines | One or two tiles decide the round | High-variance play with firm limits |
Doubling the stake after every losing round feels logical on a 99% game and fails for the usual reason: a short losing streak at ten mines is common, and the ladder outruns a normal budget long before the maths averages out. Flat stakes plus a fixed exit tile beat any ladder.

Discipline
Who Mines suits, and where the danger sits
Mines suits the Tanzanian player who loves crash pacing but wants the exit decision back in their own hands. The kindege threads on local forums describe the same wound again and again: a fast game, a chasing spiral, and a balance gone in days. Mines removes the runaway multiplier but not the speed, so the discipline still has to come from you. If the words 'one more round' start sounding like a plan rather than a choice, step away and read the responsible-gaming page on this site before playing again.
A note on currency helps the budget hold: staking in USDT keeps every round at a steady shilling value, while staking in a volatile coin lets the market move your session cost between rounds. Set a session budget in USDT before the first tile and a cash-out habit before the first win, such as banking every round at two or three safe tiles. The 99% return is a long-run average across all players, and no setting, streak or pattern turns it into a personal promise.
The grid does not remember you. Play it that way.
