About the release

Royal Draw is multi-hand video poker for your wrist. You get one hand, choose which cards to HOLD and press DRAW. Your held cards are copied into 3, 5 or 10 hands, and every hand draws its replacements from its own deck. Then watch each hand slide in, flip and show what it won.

GAMES
– Jacks or Better 9/6 (99.54% return with optimal play)
– Bonus Poker 8/5 (99.17%)
– Deuces Wild NSU, deuces are wild (99.73%)
Return figures are the published values for these pay tables with optimal strategy and a 5 CR bet per hand. Results of every hand are random (system cryptographic random source).

HOW IT PLAYS
– Choose 1, 3, 5 or 10 hands and 1-5 CR per hand (up to 50 CR per deal).
– Royal Flush pays 4000 CR only at 5 CR per hand, like a real machine.
– 3 and 5 hands are shown as rows above your hand; 10 hands play out on a sliding stage and fill a 3 x 3 results grid.
– Big wins get a full-screen celebration with vibration.

EXTRAS
– Coach tips: marks the recommended hold (simplified expert strategy; optional).
