Tools on Pixtavia
- Break reminders. Set a reminder for every 15, 30 or 60 minutes on your profile. "Take a break" pauses the games on that tab for five minutes.
- Session panel. Every game page shows time spent, rounds played, points staked and points returned for this visit.
- Plain results. Results are written as sums, such as "40 back from 100", so a smaller return is never dressed up as a success.
- Calm mode. Turns off spinning, sliding and fading animations.
- Delete everything. One button on your profile removes all your data from this device.
A quick self-check
Ask yourself honestly: Do I play for longer than I plan to? Do I feel low or irritable when I cannot play? Have I started to think about real-money gambling because of how a game here went? Do I hide how much I play? If you answered yes to any of these, it may help to talk it through with GamCare, free and in confidence.
Under 18s
Pixtavia is for adults aged 18 and over. The site asks your age before any page can be used and closes for anyone who says they are under 18. Parents and carers can block gaming and gambling sites with the parental controls built into phones, browsers and home broadband.
Worried about someone?
Family and friends can call the National Gambling Helpline too. GamCare also offers support groups and counselling for people affected by someone else's gambling.
Pixtavia is for entertainment only: no real money play, no prizes of monetary value, no in-app purchases. Playing or success in these games does not imply future success at real-money gambling.
