Our Tips
Designed for Canadians - principles for a thoughtful, meaningful, and modern approach to social gaming experiences.
Know your pace
Everyone has their own play style. Identify moments of calm and clarity, and play when it feels right.
- Play in quiet, focused moments
- Avoid nighttime fatigue
- Respect your natural energy levels
Choose Intentional Play
Don't just waste time, invest it wisely. Enjoy the process itself, not just the end result.
- Play out of desire, not boredom
- Don't play automatically
- Keep the fun in the moment
Protect Your Space
Games are part of your digital space. Keep it healthy and positive.
- Play in a safe, distraction-free environment
- Avoid stress from constant multitasking
- When it's time to unplug, log out of the game and the system
Responsible Gaming Tools
Keep your finger on the pulse and play with confidence
Our suite of safety features helps Canadian players manage their time, spending and habits to ensure their gaming experience remains fun and balanced.
Session Timers
Time flies, especially when you’re having fun. Our customizable session timers let you set gentle reminders to take a break, quit, or estimate how long you’ve been playing. You can set daily limits, schedule breaks, and get friendly reminders after long sessions. These tools help you maintain a harmonious routine and not distract from the fun of gaming.
Self-Exclusion Options
It can be helpful to take a break. The self-exclusion system gives you complete control over your access for a set period of time, from a short 24-hour break to weeks or longer. No pressure, just a clear reset and the ability to return to the game when you’re ready.
Activity Reports
Want to understand your gaming habits better? Our activity reports give you a detailed picture of your gaming behavior: time played, favorite projects, and spending. Weekly totals and graphs help you see patterns, stay informed, and make informed decisions about how you interact with games.
Spending Control
A budget under control. Set daily, weekly, or monthly limits on in-game purchases and virtual items to stay within your budget. Enable purchase confirmations, track your spending, and avoid accidental spending — all in just a few clicks. It’s the freedom to manage your finances, not the restrictions.
Trusted Contacts
Responsible gaming doesn’t have to be a solo experience. Trusted Contacts lets you invite a loved one to monitor your activity: they can view shared reports, help you stay on track, and support you if your habits start to sound alarming. A private and respectful way to get extra social support.
Educational Resources
Knowledge is the key to peace of mind. Our ever-expanding library includes expert articles, practical video tutorials, and interactive tests on responsible gaming. Learn how to recognize the early signs of unhealthy patterns, develop healthy habits, and use the tools available to you effectively. This guide is for real gamers like you.
