Nothing here costs money, but habits form all the same. This is how we deal with that.
If gambling is harming you today, the National Gambling Helpline is free on 0808 8020 133 day and night, or you can chat online with GamCare.
Social casino games borrow the look, sound and rhythm of real gambling. Puffinholm Isle is meant only for adults over the legal gambling age and is not aimed at anyone under 18. We check age twice: first on the banner you meet when you arrive, and again with a tick you must give when you create your account.
A free game can be set up to feel generous, and it tops up your balance at no cost. Real-money games do neither. Doing well on the isle tells you nothing about how you would fare with money at stake.

Only adults of 18 and over may play on Puffinholm Isle. Each game runs on virtual coins with no monetary value, and those coins can never be bought, sold, withdrawn or exchanged. The isle has no coin shop and no payment page on any of its pages, it offers no prizes of real-world value, and doing well here does not imply future success at real-money gambling.
