Dead or Alive

Nothing to compare here. NetEnt licenses one return for this title, so the figure above is the figure wherever you open it. The paytable will say the same thing in nine seconds if you want it in writing.
123 titles in this catalogue are not so simple, and on those the same nine seconds is worth real money.
Twenty dollars, priced
C$20 at the C$0.09 minimum buys 222 spins and turns the stake over exactly once. The edge on the top build is 3.18%, so that turnover is worth C$0.64 to the house and C$32 across C$1,000.
Screen time works out at roughly 15 minutes on autoplay. Variance is very high, so expect the bankroll to bleed while you wait for the feature. The cap is 12,000x.
Handset behaviour
On mobile it opens in 2.9s from cold on a Pixel 7a on Rogers LTE. You get landscape and only landscape. The controls are laid out for a wide screen and stay there.
Demo mode is available and carries the same paytable as the real thing. Nine seconds, last screen, look for the return line. The catalogue median for a cold load is 2.1s, so this one is slower than most of what sits beside it.
The exit
NetEnt shows up in 14 of the lineups we track. Betty Casino clears a withdrawal in 15 min on Interac, which is the shortest queue available to this title.
Speed is a cashier property, not a game property. This title returns the same 96.82% wherever the top build is running, so the only variable left is the queue. The ranked list is ordered by exactly that.
