Questions, Answered
Is this gambling?
No. Chaos Hold'Em is a video game. Chips and orbs are virtual, have no real-world value and cannot be cashed out — no real money is ever wagered or won. See Terms §5.
Is it really free?
Yes. The beta is free to play, and every orb can be earned by playing — winning games, signing in daily, climbing the Gauntlet, referring friends.
How do I get orbs?
You start with a bundle at sign-up. After that: win games, sign in daily, clear Gauntlet tiers, refer friends. Practice games against bots refund every orb you play, win or lose.
Do I need an account?
Just an email address. We send you a one-time code — no password to remember. After that you can sign in with Face ID or your fingerprint.
What can I play on?
iOS via TestFlight and Android via the Google Play beta. Joining takes about a minute.
