Nobody stakes money in the cabinet, yet habits can form all the same. Here is how Erasmus deals with that.
If gambling is doing you harm today, the National Gambling Helpline picks up free of charge on 0808 8020 133 at any hour, and you can also open a chat with GamCare online.
Social casino games share the look, the sound and the rhythm of real gambling, so Wunderkammer Lane is meant only for adults over the legal gambling age and is not directed at anyone under 18. Age is checked in two places: the banner shown on arrival, and a tick needed as you create your account.
A free game can be set to feel generous, and it refills your balance at no cost. Real-money games do neither. A good run under the star dome says nothing about how you would get on with money at stake.

Wunderkammer Lane opens its door to adults of 18 and over, and to no one younger. Every reel in the cabinet turns on virtual coins with no monetary value, coins nobody may buy, sell, withdraw or exchange. No glass case hides a coin counter or a payment page, Erasmus sets out no prize of real-world value, and success here does not imply future success at real-money gambling.
