Game Rules and Layout Constraints
King Hub Witness uses a 4×4 board (cells 1–16) with a fixed number of hazards. The hidden layout is sampled uniformly from the published constraint support and remains fixed for the entire round; it is never redrawn.
The Constraint: At least one hazard in the eight-neighbour king graph is adjacent to every other hazard. Other hazards need not be adjacent to each other.
Support Counts: The number of valid layouts (support count) depends on the hazard count selected:
- 3 Hazards: 132 layouts
- 4 Hazards: 233 layouts
- 5 Hazards: 272 layouts
What Pakistani Players Should Check
Before engaging with ka9, readers in Pakistan should confirm several local specifics. First, check if the operator supports the Pakistani Rupee (PKR) for any future real-money play, as this affects your convenience. Second, verify if JazzCash or Easypaisa are accepted deposit methods, as these are the most common mobile wallets in Pakistan. Third, note that gambling is restricted by national law; ensure you are of legal age and understand the local regulations. Finally, practice responsible play by setting limits, even in the demo, to build good habits.
- Check PKR support and JazzCash/Easypaisa availability on the operator’s site.
- Confirm age requirements under Pakistani law.
- Read the privacy policy for data handling in Pakistan.
Scoring and Gross Payout
The gross payout is calculated from the exact posterior probability over consistent layouts. Each selected safe cell is priced from this posterior.
- Initial Quote: Gross value starts at 0.97 times the stake.
- Dynamic Pricing: The value becomes the current value divided by that cell’s safe probability.
- Known-Safe Cells: Leave value unchanged.
- Proven Hazards: Are disabled and cannot be selected.
The live gross quote is calculated as: 0.97 × (Original Support Count / Surviving Support Count). A hazard returns zero.
Settlement and Collection Rules
Collection: You may collect after at least one safe pick. Collection is automatic only when no eligible uncertain move remains.
Blocking: A choice with a prospective quote above 1,000× the original stake is disabled without changing state.
Return: Every revealed-information strategy has a 97% expected gross return in the fair support model. This is not a win probability.
Virtual Wallet and Balance
Initial Balance: 1000 virtual coins.
Restoration: If the idle balance falls below 10, you can manually restore it. This action sets the balance to exactly 1000, preserving any fractional carry.
Fractional Carry: Persists through settlement, manual refill, and reload.
Reload: An unfinished round ends without refund or resume if the page is reloaded.
Controls and Modes
Stake Options: 10, 20, 50, or 100 virtual coins.
Locked Controls: Stake, mode, and refill are locked while active. Sound remains available.
Unfinished Reload: Does not receive a refund or resume capability.
Privacy and Storage
Storage: Game source uses localStorage for settled balance and fractional carry. This does not establish anonymity or exclude other processing.
Third-Party Requests: The template declares a Google Fonts stylesheet; actual full-site network capture remains pending.
Account Flow: None. No login or payment flow is observed in the demo.
