A walk, not a habit

Why free play is still for 18+

Social casino games share the look, sound and rhythm of real gambling. Tarnside Fellwalk is intended only for adults over the legal gambling age and is not aimed at anyone under 18. Age is checked twice: on the banner that meets you first, and again with a tick when you create your account.

Things we will never do in the valley

• Run real-money gambling, or promote it in any way.
• Give out prizes that have real-world value.
• Sell coins, or add in-app purchases of any kind.
• Send walkers off to gambling operators or affiliates.
• Nag walkers back with countdowns or streaks.

Fair warning from Pennick

A free game can be set up to feel generous, and it refills your balance at no cost. Real-money games do neither of those things. How you do here says nothing about how you would get on with money at stake.

Signs to stop and look at

• Playing for far longer than you planned.
• Growing irritable once you stop.
• Playing to shake off a low mood.
• Play eats into your sleep, your work or the people around you.
• You find you are hunting for a real-money version.

Keeping your own pace

• Decide how long the walk will be before you set off.
• Keep autoplay off on every walk.
• Rest at regular intervals, as on any walk.
• Wiping this site’s data resets the lot; blocking the site in your device settings ends it for good.
