Game Mechanics: Parallel Sort Burst
The game starts by reading six two-bit values, each ranging from zero to three. These values form the basis of a sorting process. The demo runs six phases of odd-even transposition sorting. The first phase compares positions zero/two/four with their right neighbours; later phases alternate with comparisons starting at positions one and three.
The goal is to score the largest number of swaps that occur in a single phase. Twelve independent fair bits are revealed in order to determine the final state. These bits define 4096 equally likely complete words. You select a raw-score power: one, two, or three. This power determines how the score is calculated: raw score, squared score, or cubed score.
The live gross bank quote is calculated using the formula: 0.96 times the captured stake times the conditional expected terminal raw score raised to the selected power, divided by the unconditional mean for that power. Exact unconditional means are 1.8955078125 for power one, 4.0244140625 for power two, and 9.1728515625 for power three.
The quote can rise or fall as bits are revealed. If the conditional potential drops to zero, the round settles immediately with zero gross return. All unused future bits are averaged exactly. Actions use no information about hidden bits beyond the current reveal.
Controls, Modes, and Settlement
You control one whole captured stake at the start of the round. Row shares are not used. You preselect a power (one, two, or three) and an automatic reveal cap (4, 8, or 12 revealed bits). These selections lock during the live round. Sound controls remain available throughout.
You can manually bank the current quote at any time while the round is live. There is no automatic queue for a bank of 10. If you select an automatic cap of 4, 8, or 12, the system banks the current quote when that many bits are revealed. If the conditional value reaches zero before the cap, it settles early.
Each semantic reveal takes 650 milliseconds. Any bounded stopping rule under the supported policies yields an expected gross return of 96%. This is a mathematical expectation, not a guarantee of profit. Fractional carry persists across settlements and reloads. Unfinished reloads lose the captured debit without refund or resume.
Wallet and Restoration Rules
The demo uses a local virtual wallet. The initial balance is 1000 coins. Settlements and balances are saved in the browser's localStorage. This storage does not prove anonymity or exclude other processing by the site.
If the balance drops below 10 while idle, you can manually refill it. The refill sets the balance to 1000. This restoration preserves any fractional carry. The refill is manual and does not happen automatically. Reloading an unfinished trace ends it and loses the captured debit.
Virtual coins have no cash value. There is no cashier, payment method, or KYC requirement associated with this demo. Login pages simply explain the lack of an account flow. Payment pages explain the virtual nature of the coins.
Mathematical Evidence and RTP
The expected gross return is 96% under the supported stopping policies. This is not a win probability or a guarantee over a single session. It is a mathematical expectation based on the exact averaging of all possible words.
Simulation evidence supports this. Testing one million rounds for each mode and cap combination shows measured returns close to the exact 0.96 value. For example, mode zero with cap four measured 95.994%, and mode two with cap twelve measured 96.044%. These are sample observations and may vary slightly due to randomness. Long floating-point artifacts are rounded sensibly.
The game does not require optimal play to achieve the 96% expectation under the supported stopping rules. The rules are fixed by the cap and the manual bank option.

Responsible Use and Limits
Responsible use is voluntary. You can set your own time or virtual coin limits. The game caps and resets are mechanics, not guarantees of safe behavior. If you need help, you can seek local qualified assistance. There are no named hotlines or enforced timers in this demo.

Frequently asked questions
What is the actual payout mechanism in Parallel Sort Burst?
The payout is a gross bank quote calculated as 0.96 times the captured stake times the conditional expected terminal raw score raised to the selected power, divided by the unconditional mean. The quote can rise or fall. If the potential drops to zero, the round settles at zero. There is no cash payout; winnings are virtual coins.
How does the wallet restoration work?
When the balance is below 10 and the user is idle, a manual refill sets the balance to 1000. This preserves any fractional carry. The refill is not automatic. Reloading an unfinished trace loses the captured debit.
Is the 96% RTP guaranteed?
No. The 96% is an expected gross return under the supported stopping policies. It is a mathematical expectation, not a guarantee of net profit in a single session. Simulated results may vary slightly due to randomness.
