Responsible gambling: warning signs and where to get help

The games on this site are for adults only, and over time they pay back less than players put in. If gambling is costing you more money or time than you meant to spend, or it has stopped being fun, the free services below can help.

By CrashAudit editorial team · Updated 13 Sep 2026

What should you know before you play?

  • Every game we cover has an RTP below 100%, so the longer you play, the more likely you are to end up behind. No trick, system or predictor changes that; our Chicken Road 2.0 odds table shows why.
  • Rounds are quick, which makes it easy to play longer and stake more than you planned.
  • A lucky run in a free demo says nothing about the next paid session.

What are the warning signs?

  • You spend more money or time on gambling than you planned.
  • You keep playing to win back what you lost.
  • You borrow money, or use money meant for bills, to gamble.
  • You hide your gambling from people close to you.
  • You feel restless or irritable when you try to cut down or stop.
  • Gambling affects your work, studies, sleep or relationships.

If any of these sounds familiar, talk to someone. Gamblers Anonymous has a 20-question self-test on its website.

What can you do today?

  • Set a money limit and a time limit before you start, and stop when you reach either one.
  • Use any deposit limits, time-outs or self-exclusion your casino account offers.
  • Block gambling sites on your phone and computer. Gambling Therapy has a guide to blocking gambling sites.
  • Don't gamble with borrowed money or with money you need for bills.
  • Tell someone you trust what is going on.

Where can you get free help?

  • Gambling Therapy (gamblingtherapy.org): free practical advice and emotional support for anyone affected by gambling, run by the UK charity Gordon Moody. It has online support forums, and the site is available in many languages, including Hindi, Urdu, Punjabi, Russian and Ukrainian. Email: help@gordonmoody.org.uk.
  • Gamblers Anonymous (gamblersanonymous.org): meetings in person, online and by phone, with no dues or fees. Its site also links to Gam-Anon, for family and friends, and lists a US hotline: 855-222-5542.
  • UK only: GambleAware (gambleaware.org; the old begambleaware.org address now leads there) lists the National Gambling Helpline, 0808 8020 133, run by GamCare. It is free and open 24 hours a day for people in England and Scotland; the same page lists a separate NHS helpline for Wales. InOut titles are not offered in the UK.

We checked these details on each organisation's website on 13 Sep 2026. If you are in immediate danger or thinking about harming yourself, call your local emergency number now.

Is this site for under-18s?

No. CrashAudit is for adults only. Casinos require players to be at least 18, and older in some countries. Read more about who runs CrashAudit or go back to the game overview.
