Important Notice

Gaming is for entertainment only. If you feel gaming is affecting your life, relationships, or finances — please seek help now. Crikes is always here for you.

What is responsible gaming and why does it matter?

Responsible gaming means keeping gaming as a fun form of entertainment — not treating it as a source of income or an escape from stress. At Crikes, we believe a truly enjoyable gaming experience is only possible when a player is aware of their own limits.

Online gaming is growing rapidly in Bangladesh. Many people enjoy Live Casino or slots for entertainment — and that is perfectly normal. But sometimes a person can lose control. When that happens, Crikes' responsible gaming tools are here to help.

Responsible gaming isn't just for you — it's for your family and loved ones too. When you play in a controlled way, gaming stays enjoyable and your relationships remain strong.

Crikes promises — we will never encourage you to play beyond your means. Our goal is a long-term, enjoyable gaming relationship.

Warning Signs of Problem Gaming

Sometimes we don't realize when gaming has crossed the line from entertainment to a problem. Watch out for these warning signs:

You are spending beyond your budget and feeling regret afterwards.

You keep coming back to play in an attempt to recover your losses.

You are hiding your gaming from family or friends.

You feel irritable or restless when you're unable to game.

You're skipping work, sleep, or meals because of gaming.

You're taking on debt or dipping into savings to fund your gaming.

You are using gaming to escape stress or frustration.

You want to stop playing but find you can't.

If you notice two or more of the above signs in yourself, contact Crikes' support team without delay or use the self-exclusion tool.

Assess Yourself

Ask yourself the following questions and answer them honestly — this is just between you and yourself:

1

Do I feel uncomfortable or restless if I go a day without gaming?

2

Did I spend more than my set budget last month?

3

Has a family member expressed concern about my gaming?

4

Do I place bigger bets to try to recover money I've lost?

5

Is gaming affecting my work or studies?

6

Do I sometimes realize I'm playing too much, yet still can't stop?

If you answered "Yes" to 3 or more questions, now is the time to start using Crikes' support tools. Remember — asking for help is not a weakness, it takes courage.

Practical Responsible Gaming Tips

Build these habits to keep your daily gaming experience healthy and enjoyable:

Set a budget: Decide how much you're willing to spend before you start, and stick to that limit strictly.

Set a time limit: Decide how long you will play before each session starts and set an alarm.

Stop when you lose: Chasing losses by playing more is never a good decision.

Take a break: Take at least a 10-minute break every hour. Get up, walk around, and drink some water.

Managing emotions: Never game when you are angry, frustrated, or under the influence of alcohol.

Keep other hobbies: Outside of gaming, spend time with family, take up a sport, or engage in a hobby.

Enjoy the win, don't get stuck chasing it: Be happy when you win, but playing more just to hold onto that win is not the right call.

Let a loved one know: Confide in a trusted family member — it creates a sense of accountability.

Crikes' Protection Tools

We've put 6 powerful tools in your hands — so you're always in full control of your own gaming.

Set a Deposit Limit

Set a maximum daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit. Once set, it cannot be increased before the specified period ends — keeping your budget protected.

Session Time Limit

Set a maximum duration for each gaming session. When the time is up, the platform will automatically notify you and end the session.

Loss Limit

Play will automatically stop once you have lost a set amount. Use this tool to protect yourself from chasing losses.

Cooling-off Period

Take a cooling-off break lasting anywhere from 24 hours to 6 weeks. You will not be able to log in to your account during this time — giving you a chance to clear your head.

Self- Exclusion

Activate a long-term self-exclusion for anywhere between 6 months and 5 years. Your account will be completely inactive during this period and no promotional messages will be sent.

Reality Check

On-screen reminders will appear at regular intervals showing how long you have been playing and how much you have spent. These short check-ins help you stay aware.

General FAQ

No. Your account balance remains fully protected once self-exclusion is active. You can withdraw as normal after the exclusion period ends. However, new deposits and gaming are not possible while the exclusion is in place.

Yes. Reducing your deposit limit takes effect immediately. However, increasing it requires a 7-day waiting period — this is intentional, giving you time to think the decision through carefully.

No. While self-exclusion is active, we will not send you any promotional emails, bonus offers, or gaming-related messages. Only essential account security notifications may be sent.

Yes. A family member or trusted person can contact Crikes support to report the situation. We will assess it confidentially and take the necessary steps.
