The depot for anyone, two further stops on a free account, and every rule posted on the board.
Chimehall Depot keeps its doors open to all: spin it on the front page or on its own platform page with free play coins. Horatio takes no name, email or password, and there is nothing to tick.
Rustcliff Ore Spur and Flakewater Riffles require a free account, whose form runs to four boxes: a nickname, an email address, a password and a tick confirming you are 19 or over. You will see no card field, no address line and no phone box, for the railway charges no fare. The account serves two purposes, no more: your coins and progress wait in your ticket wallet for your return, and play stays limited to adults. One press of a button on your account page retires the account and everything in it.
Every new account starts on 100,000 free coins, and anything the depot paid out on this same device is added. A single balance, level and missions list carries on through every stop. Coins are virtual; buying, selling, withdrawing or exchanging them for anything is impossible, and no win has real-world value.
No in-app purchases exist, and no page anywhere on the railway takes payment.
Every world on the line has five reels by three rows. A winning run is counted from the leftmost reel rightwards, over adjacent reels and along fixed paylines. The stake is divided in equal parts among the lines; paytable figures are multiples of the line bet, the scatter excepted, as it pays on the total stake. Should a line carry several wins, Horatio pays only the highest.
| Bonus working | What happens at that stop | Stops |
|---|---|---|
| Tumbling reels | Symbols in a win disappear, the remainder drop, and replacements roll in from above. Each successive win in the sequence pays more: x1 on the original spin, then x2, x3, and x5 on every tumble that follows. | Flakewater Riffles |
| Multiplier that keeps climbing the pass | In free spins the multiplier climbs stop by stop and stays up until the round has finished. | Rustcliff Ore Spur |
| Wild-hold respin | Should a paid spin show a wild yet win nothing, every wild stays coupled in place and the other positions spin again free of charge. | Chimehall Depot |
| Last-reel respin | When a paid spin wins nothing but lands two scatters, the fifth reel gets one extra free turn to look for the third. | |
| Doubled-up free rides | The most straightforward bonus on the line: three scatters award free spins, and all wins during them are doubled. |
Every reel is threaded with a fixed strip of symbols, and at each spin your browser’s random number generator sets each strip at an independent random position. One spin never sways another, and nothing alters with your balance or the length of your session.
Horatio clocks each stop’s return, hit frequency and feature frequency by running the game’s own code for millions of spins, and posts the results in its paytable. These figures belong to coin play in these free games alone and tell you nothing about any real-money game.
Riders on Switchback Express must be adults of 19 or over. The games all run on virtual coins with no monetary value, which can never be bought, sold, withdrawn or exchanged. No ticket window on the railway sells coins and no payment page exists on the site, no prize of real-world value is offered, and success here does not imply future success at real-money gambling.
