Recognising Problem Gambling

Gambling problems can develop gradually — often before a person notices the signs themselves. shell96 encourages all players to regularly check in with themselves honestly. If you answer "yes" to several of the questions below, it may be time to reach out for support.

Ask Yourself Honestly

1

Do you find yourself gambling with money intended for essential expenses like rent, food, or bills?

2

Do you spend increasing amounts of time or money on gambling to achieve the same level of excitement?

3

Have you tried to reduce or stop gambling but found it difficult or impossible to do so?

4

Do you feel irritable, restless, or anxious when not gambling or when trying to cut back?

5

Have you borrowed money, sold possessions, or engaged in dishonest behaviour to fund gambling?

6

Has gambling caused significant problems in your relationships, work, or studies?

7

Do you return to gambling after losing, hoping to win back what you lost ("chasing losses")?

Warning Signs to Watch For

⚠️ Financial Warning Signs

Repeatedly exceeding your own gambling budget, taking loans or cash advances to fund play, or missing bill payments because gambling funds were used instead.

⚠️ Emotional Warning Signs

Feeling guilty, ashamed, or secretive about gambling activity. Using gambling as a way to escape stress, depression, loneliness, or personal problems.

⚠️ Behavioural Warning Signs

Neglecting family, friends, work, or personal responsibilities due to time spent gambling. Lying to people close to you about the amount of time or money involved.

⚠️ Thought Pattern Warning Signs

Believing you have a "system" that will eventually beat the odds. Thinking that one big win will solve all financial problems. Feeling you are "due" a win after a losing streak.

Tips for Safer Play at shell96

Following these practical habits helps keep gaming fun and prevents it from becoming a problem.

Set a Budget Before You Start

Decide how much you are comfortable spending before logging in. Use shell96's deposit limit feature to enforce that budget automatically — do not rely on willpower alone.

Treat Gambling as Entertainment

View any money spent on gaming as the cost of entertainment — similar to a movie ticket or a dinner out. Never expect gambling to generate income or solve financial problems.

Take Regular Breaks

Step away from the screen regularly, especially during longer sessions. Use shell96's session time reminder feature to prompt breaks at intervals you choose in advance.

Never Chase Losses

Chasing losses is one of the most common pathways to problem gambling. If you have reached your session budget, log out — regardless of whether you are ahead or behind.

Balance Gaming with Other Activities

Maintain a healthy balance by keeping other hobbies and social activities in your life. If shell96 is becoming your primary leisure activity, that is a signal to re-evaluate your habits.

Protect Young People

If you share a device, always log out of your shell96 account fully. Never share your login credentials. Use device-level parental controls if young people have access to your devices.

Play Smart. Play Safe. Play at shell96.

shell96 is here for entertainment — and we want it to stay that way. Use our responsible gaming tools to keep your experience enjoyable. If you need to take a break, we make that easy too.
