HOW TO PLAY TOWER RUSH

Everything you need to know about the tower’s rules, mechanics, bonus floors, and the numbers behind every round. Get familiar before going all-in for the first time.

The Core Mechanic

BUILD OR COLLECT – THAT’S THE WHOLE GAME

At the core of every Tower Rush round is one simple choice: Do you build? Or collect?

In this game, the multiplier doesn’t have a set amount for every single floor. Instead, there are ranges, set by RNG (random number generation), and determined before the round begins. This is how the Provably Fair works – the outcome is set before you click Build.

So the moment the tower will fall is already decided for you. You don’t determine when the tower collapses. When you decide to build floors, the tower’s height and the potential multiplier at each level are random and determined. When you build, you decide how many times to ride it before you cash out, so you aren’t really controlling the tower; you’re choosing when to exit it.

Payout Formula
Stake Ă— Multiplier = Payout
Example: $15 bet at 6x → $90 payout

If the tower falls before you collect, you lose the stake (unless a Frozen Floor was active on the floor immediately before it).

Step by Step

HOW A ROUND PLAYS OUT

01
Set Your Bet

Choose any amount between $0.10 and $100. The stake is determined when you hit Build – there’s no option to increase the stake or change it.

02
Press Build

The tower starts to build, and your multiplier rises as you add floors. No autoplay. No auto cash-out. Every decision is manual.

03
Decide Floor by Floor

It’s not a timer. You take as long as you need. Every floor you build increases your multiplier – and brings you closer to a result that’s already determined.

04
Cash Out or Collapse

Hit Cash Out at any time, before the tower falls, to collect Stake x Multiplier. If the tower collapses, the stake is lost – unless a Frozen Floor was active on that floor.

Special Mechanics

THE THREE BONUS FLOORS

Bonus floors may start on Floor Two; they can occur at any point during a round. There’s no frequency for how often they will trigger, nor a way to know which type will trigger. There are different types of bonus floors, and each changes the context of the round when they trigger.

Frozen Floor
One floor of protection

Your multiplier is locked the moment it triggers. If your next floor brings a collapse, you cash out at the frozen value rather than losing the stake. Only the next floor is covered. If you add another floor and the tower collapses, the floor after that, the frozen multiplier has already expired. You aren’t buying insurance, you’re buying a single floor’s worth of protection.

Temple Floor
Multiplier wheel spin

A wheel is generated, with segments from a minimum of 2x all the way up to 20x. The value you land on multiplies your current multiplier – so your multiplier is not added to. If your multiplier is 7x and the wheel lands on 10x, your new multiplier is 70x. There’s no losing segment on the wheel. Both the temple wheel in-game play as well as in demo mode are certified by the Gaming Laboratories International (GLI) and Gaming Associates (GA).

Triple Build
Three floors at once

Three floors are stacked at once, each one boosting the multiplier on its own. The result can be substantial if this occurs at the tail end of a round – on a large base, three more floors can boost the multiplier many times. Triple Build is the quickest way to the 100x limit. With a max stake of $100, it is a $10,000 payout in a single round.

Understanding the Math

NUMBERS BEHIND THE GAME

RTP Range 96.17%–97%

Volatility High

Extended losing streaks are normal. Significant wins arrive infrequently and without pattern

Max Win Ă—100 stake

Game auto-cashes you out at 100x – e.g. $100 bet → $10,000 max payout

Payout Formula Stake Ă— Multiplier

$20 bet at 5x = $100 payout. $100 bet at 100x = $10,000

READING A ROUND

EARLY COLLAPSES ARE EXPECTED

Due to high volatility, most rounds will end before reaching 8x or higher. This is normal and not a sign the game is rigged. The math is balanced because the few long rounds are big enough to offset the short ones. Losses should be frequent and streaky.

BONUS FLOORS ≠ COLLAPSE SIGNALS

The RNG used to time bonus floors and the RNG used to choose the collapse floor are independent of each other. Frozen Floor means nothing about when the tower will collapse. Temple Floor at 12x is not an invitation to keep going. View the bonus solely as a multiplier. It holds no data about whether the tower will fall.

BANKROLL MANAGEMENT

If you plan to use $10 for your session, this is 50 rounds at 20¢. Plenty to experience the variance. Set a round limit rather than a time limit; 100 rounds per session will take about 30 minutes, and time is irrelevant to the amount you risk.

Practical Advice

PLAYING TIPS

01
Have a target before the start of every round
The moment has come to stop at x50, or whichever target you decide upon. No extra floors! Only between rounds should you decide to reset your target. Decisions made during a climb are inferior to decisions made before a climb.
02
A multiplier that surpasses your current target is not a good reason to stick around
This is the most common mistake made by players, resulting in their downfall. You have a target for a reason. If you want a higher number next round, set it next round. Changing targets mid-round represents a completely different decision in terms of odds over time.
03
Bonus floors do not indicate tower stability
Triggering a Frozen Floor does not mean you are in an unstable tower. A Triple Build does not guarantee that you should keep going next round. The chance for a collapse is not dependent on bonus floors. Attempting to correlate bonus floors to the chance of a tower collapse is a logical fallacy.
04
Play to a round-count instead of a time limit
Because Tower Rush moves so quickly, it's perfectly feasible to get 100 rounds done in a session, since rounds generally take between 1 and 2 minutes. A time limit will only tell you how much time you've spent playing, but it won't give any indication of how many rounds you have completed or what amount of risk you have assumed. A fixed-round limit (like 40 rounds and stop) is much clearer and easier to track.
05
Make individual bets a small amount relative to your session bankroll
A good rule of thumb is to place bets equal to ~2% of the money you are using for the session. For example, if you are putting $10 on the session bankroll, you will get 50 rounds on each $0.20 round, giving you enough rounds to experience the true variance of the game. With this bet size, no single loss will wipe you out.
Rules FAQ

COMMON QUESTIONS

No, your bet is finalized as soon as you press Build. To change your bet amount, you must wait for a new round to start.
The round ends immediately. Your win is your stake x the multiplier for the current floor. You don’t get the bonus trigger.
No. You must click Collect to cash out or click Build to continue playing. You cannot set a cash-out target in advance that the game will automatically achieve, as a live decision is at the heart of the game.
The game determines the round outcome before every round starts, then produces a cryptographic hash of that result. You can compare the round outcome against the hash that the game provides after the round ends, and thereby confirm that the outcome has not been changed in the meantime. The feature is documented in the in-game Help section. The system is certified by Gaming Laboratories International (GLI) and Gaming Associates.
No. Each round is an independent event. The collapse point is randomly generated by the RNG before every round starts; it has nothing to do with previous outcomes. Although the round history presented in the casino lobby is very useful for understanding the range of variance experienced by the game in your play session, it does not help predict what is about to happen in any one specific upcoming round.
Frozen Floor sets your multiplier to the current multiplier when it triggers. So if the tower falls on the next floor, your payout is calculated using the frozen multiplier. It covers only one floor. If the next time the tower falls is two or more floors later, the multiplier has already been unfrozen, and the stake is lost.
The minimum stake is $0.10 per round. The maximum stake is $100. And at $100 with the max multiplier of 100x, the most you can win in a single round is $10,000.
The RTP of the game ranges between 96.17% and 97%, and casino operators are free to set their chosen RTP within that range. In most cases, you should be able to check your specific casino's RTP by clicking on the game's info button. If not, please ask the casino support to confirm it in a post on the Forum or on your casino's support ticket.
