The demo features a virtual wallet with specific persistence rules. Balance is stored locally, and a manual refill restores funds only under certain idle conditions. This page clarifies these mechanics, storage habits, and what they imply for your session.
No Login or External Account
This demo has no username, password, email verification or account recovery. It does not establish an outside AQ9 account address. Balance and carry are local to this browser and site. Switching browsers does not transfer them. Clearing only cached files may retain localStorage; clearing this site’s storage removes it.
What Indian Readers Should Check
For users in India, understanding the local context of this demo is important. The game uses virtual coins, not real currency like INR, but you should verify if the operator accepts Indian rupees for any future real-money versions. Check the official site for supported payment methods such as UPI, Paytm, or PhonePe, as these are common in India.
Regulatory status varies by state. Gambling laws differ across Indian states, so confirm whether online gaming is permitted in your specific region. For safety, ensure you are using the correct domain (aq9.info) and check the operator’s terms for data privacy policies. Always play responsibly and be aware that demo wins do not guarantee real winnings.
- Check if UPI or Paytm is supported for real money play.
- Verify local state laws regarding online gambling in India.
- Confirm the official website address to avoid phishing.
Wallet Restoration and Refill Rules
The demo wallet starts with a balance of 1000 virtual coins. Restoration is not automatic. You must manually trigger a refill when the balance drops below 10 while the interface is idle. This action sets the balance to exactly 1000.
- Eligibility: Refill is available only when idle and balance < 10.
- Fractional Carry: Any fractional carry persists across settlement, refill, and reload.
- Persistence: Settled balances are saved locally.
- Unfinished Rounds: If you reload the page during an active round, the session ends without a refund or resume capability.
Storage and Privacy Observations
The demo stores balance and fractional carry in browser localStorage. It has no account or payment form; this does not establish anonymity or exclude other processing. Pages request Google Fonts and Statinside counter 44. Those requests may convey the IP address and browser request information to those services. Server retention and other processing are not established here. Clearing this site’s localStorage or site data removes balance and carry; clearing only cached files may leave them intact.
Game Mechanics: Column Lex Zigzag
The board has 4×4 cells and exactly 3, 4 or 5 mines. Read each column from top to bottom as a four-bit integer: mine = 1, safe = 0, weights 8, 4, 2, 1. From left to right, the column values must satisfy c0 ≤ c1 ≥ c2 ≤ c3; equality is allowed. Draws are uniform among boards satisfying both this rule and the selected mine count. Initial support sizes are respectively 150, 464 and 1053. Revealing a safe cell filters the compatible support.
After a safe reveal, gross quote = (0.96 × captured stake × initial support) / current compatible support. The stake is deducted when the round starts. A mine returns zero gross. Manual banking is available after at least one safe reveal. Certain mines and cells whose safe quote would exceed 1000× stake are disabled. All safe cells revealed or no eligible cell remaining automatically banks the current quote. A certain-safe cell can remain eligible. With five mines, singleton support would quote 1010.88×, so that above-cap transition is disabled.
Mathematical Evidence and RTP
The exact expected gross RTP is 0.96 across all modes. Measured RTP values are supporting sample observations and not promised session results.
| Mines | Policy | Exact Gross RTP | Measured RTP |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3 | 0 | 0.96 | 96.03% |
| 3 | 1 | 0.96 | 96.05% |
| 3 | 2 | 0.96 | 96.00% |
| 4 | 0 | 0.96 | 96.01% |
| 5 | 0 | 0.96 | 95.99% |
Simulation measurements are distinct from the mathematical payout law. Fractional carry and gross-versus-net wording follow the actual contract.
Responsible Use and Audience
The 18+ label indicates this guide's intended audience policy, not a universal legal age or an implemented age gate. It is not a statement of local legality in Bangladesh or elsewhere.
Responsible use includes setting personal time or virtual-coin limits. The demo does not clinically train behaviour or make losses safe. There are no account-level blocking or self-exclusion tools built into this specific browser demo.
Frequently asked questions
Does AQ9 require me to sign in to play this demo?
No. This independent demo has no login flow. You can access the game and wallet directly without creating an account or verifying an email.
How does the wallet refill work if I run out of coins?
When your balance drops below 10 and you are idle, you can manually refill. This sets your balance to exactly 1000. It is not automatic, and no external payment is required.
Is my game progress saved if I close the browser?
Settled balances are stored in your browser's localStorage. However, if you reload during an active round, the round ends without a refund or resume. Clearing cached files may leave local storage, but data loss is possible depending on your browser settings.
Do I need to log in to play AQ9 in India?
No, the demo version does not require a login. Your session is stored locally in your browser, so you do not need to create an account or verify your identity to play.
Does AQ9 use INR or UPI in the demo?
The demo uses virtual coins, not INR. To see if UPI, Paytm, or PhonePe are accepted for real-money games, you must check the operator’s official payment page, as this demo does not process real currency.
