What is Volatility? Cece Bartley February 04, 2025 20:50 Updated Here at Ruby Sweeps, we explain volatility as a way to help guide what games you want to play! What is Volatility? Volatility describes the varying levels of risk and reward in our games at Ruby Sweeps. Volatility is calculated using the hit rate and the maximum win amount. Each game is different! For example, Temple of the Jaguar Guardian has a hit rate of 40% and a top outcome of 55 times the play amount, so we would call this a low-volatility game. Low-volatility games offer more frequent wins, at a smaller amount, while an increase in volatility, will increase the amount you could win, less often. High-Volatility Games You can win big! These are super exciting moments, though they are rare to come by. You’ll need to be prepared to play through your Gold Coins or Emeralds to catch the bonus to make the big wins in our high-volatility games. Medium-Volatility Games These games offer a comfortable middle ground for both small and large wins. These games are great for players seeking a little excitement, without letting go of too many Gold Coins and Emeralds. Low-Volatility Games You can win small amounts, often! Players can enjoy our games with minimal Gold Coins and Emeralds while still having fun. You’re only putting in a bit and winning a small amount more often. Finding Your Balance Understanding volatility is one of a few ways that can help you decide what kind of fun you want when choosing between high-, medium-, and low-volatility games. Some people enjoy the big thrills and possible big wins in high-volatility games, while others prefer the steadiness of low-volatility games. Some even mix both for different moods. Remember, there's no one right answer! The key is finding the balance that suits your style. If you'd ever like to know what the volatility is on specific games, do feel free to reach out!
