Casino Game Analysis
You have an idea for a game.
You know roughly how it should be played, you know what the players should have at their disposal and what you’d like to work in the house’s favor to balance it out; what you don’t know are the fine details that will make the game solvent for the house but still attractive enough for players.
This is where we come in.
We have an extensive software library for modeling standard casino games, and use that as a basis to determine the house advantage, the hit rate and the variance inherent to your game.
You’ll find out what works, what doesn’t, and what you need to do to get your game just right.
Make your game a reality.

Slot Machine PAR Sheet Design
Whether you are looking to design a physical slot machine for your land-based casino, or a video slot game for your online casino or social media platform, you are going to need a mathematical model.
Here at TGS, we’ve learned from the best, and have been designing successful and profitable slot machine models for a number of clients.
From standard to esoteric features, if you can describe it, we can analyze it.
The result: a PAR sheet, complete with industry standard information, in the form of an interactive spreadsheet, supplemented by computer simulations for calculations too complex to solve algebraically.
Make your game a reality.

Interactive Game Demos
You’ve finished the hard part — the mathematical base is solid, the game play statistics suggest a good player experience.
Now, how do you show your game idea off to perspective clients before you’ve invested the money for a physical felt and a trade show booth, and before investing the time in training someone to demonstrate?
With an interactive game demo, you have a way to get potential new players interested in your game with as little as a website link, and a useful demonstration tool for potential new clients to see the game in action.
We can provide stock graphics with a consistent look and feel, but if you have your own art assets and visions on how your game should play, the sky’s the limit.

General Gaming Information
Not all of our customers are employed by the casino industry; some are simply participants who have a curiosity for their favorite hobby. We’ve estimated the cost of strategy errors when playing established casino games, we’ve calculated just how unlikely some unlikely event was to happen, and we’ve even consulted for the media.
And that’s just what our past customers have come up with.
Remember, at TGS, “Wow, what are the odds of that?” is not a rhetorical question. If you can ask it, we can answer it.
You deserve to know the odds.

The Wizard is working with an attorney to get PAR sheets for various slots through the Freedom of Information Act. I hope he doesn't mind me revealing that; maybe he will comment on it.
I think you have two of my stories mixed up. To make a long story short, I don't have any PAR sheets I can legally share and lost my legal fight over another similar matter. More on that when I write about it in May.

PAR Sheets, probabilities, and slot machine play: Implications for problem and non-problem gambling
Journal of Gambling Issues: Issue 23, June 2009
There are some PARS sheets for old games that have been posted online (see my blog) but not progressive games.

There are some PARS sheets for old games that have been posted online. I am not sure what the big deal is about them, as the tricks are not overly difficult to figure out.
I have a whole box of PAR sheets but don't want to get sued for publishing them. It is really no big deal to have some. I already explain how some slots are designed on my Odds site much more clearly than any PAR sheet.

Thank you paco, I have read that before and it is a good read.Wiz- I am anxious to hear what happens in may. I am jealous of your sheets. If I had them, I would make a professional slot player app with calculators for the more common progressives. Throw in the mystery progressive target point calculator with some other gambling tips and ouila! You have professional slot playing for dummies.

Darn, but I look forward to reading it. I was all ready to pay $20 for the legal defense fund.

My PAR sheets are for games from the late nineties and early zeros. As far as I know, none are progressive.
Is it out of order for me to ask if the FOI case was against government regulators or were you bringing it against the manufacturers?
You, sir, are out of order! Sorry, I've always wanted to say that. The case was against the Nevada Gaming Control Board, and I lost. The story is pretty boring; don't get your hopes up. After a lot of legal expense on both sides the judge ruled against me without stating a reason.
What is relevant disclosure?
You tell a mesmerized drunk: you put your money in here and you press this little red button here, then lights flash and you either win or lose.
Is a casino required to disclose how bright the lights are or how sultry the recorded voice is? The only disclosure issue is the stats of hitting it big or not hitting it at all.
Such disclosure now appears to be made as a percentage basis over a non-defined 'long term'.
