RTP here is the figure the studio publishes. Some studios let the casino choose one of several settings, and in some games the bet you pick or the moment you cash out moves the return; each game guide says which applies.

How a wheel round runs

Bets go on while the betting time runs, then the wheel spins, and the segment a flapper or pointer marks decides the round. The wheels differ in size: Crazy Time, Dream Catcher, Monopoly Live and Sweet Bonanza CandyLand have 54 segments, Funky Time 64, and Lightning Storm spins a DigiWheel of 39. BetGames' Wheel of Fortune has 19 equal sectors, the numbers 1 to 18 and a cup.

In seven of the nine a host or presenter starts each spin live. Evolution's own word for the 53-segment wheel of Ice Fishing is virtual, with a live host for the fishing, and Classic Wheel is not live at all: each draw plays a pre-recorded Wheel of Fortune session, selected at random. Two of Evolution's wheels grew out of a third: it based Crazy Time on its Dream Catcher money wheel concept and launched Monopoly Live as a special edition of the Dream Catcher wheel.

Numbers, multipliers and bonus games 🎁

A number segment pays its own number to one, with the stake returned, on the wheels of Dream Catcher (1, 2, 5, 10, 20 or 40), Crazy Time and Monopoly Live (1, 2, 5 and 10) and Sweet Bonanza CandyLand (1, 2 and 5). Some segments cannot be backed and carry the round on instead: Dream Catcher's 2x and 7x send the wheel round again with the next payout multiplied, a Sugar Bomb in CandyLand adds 2x to 10x and a respin, and a multiplier card from Monopoly Live's CHANCE keeps every bet in place for another spin.

Six of the nine also open bonus games: four in Crazy Time and in Funky Time, three in Ice Fishing and in CandyLand, five in Lightning Storm and a 3D board in Monopoly Live, reached through 2 ROLLS and 4 ROLLS. Only a bet on the segment the wheel stops at takes part in its bonus game; everyone else watches. Dream Catcher's wheel holds only its six numbers and two multipliers, and BetGames' two wheels their 18 numbers and a cup, with 35 bets at odds from 2 to 18.

Each spot carries its own price

Evolution's rules give every bet spot its own RTP, and the spread can be wide: from 89.88% on the 40 to 95.65% on the 10 in Dream Catcher, from 91.30% on the 5 to 96.23% on the 2 in Monopoly Live, from 94.33% on Pachinko to 96.08% on the 1 in Crazy Time. Funky Time keeps its six figures between 95.38% and 95.99%, and in Ice Fishing and Lightning Storm the Leaf bets carry the top figure, 97.10% and 97.44%. Some of these figures leave out the table's payout cap, which lowers the return at maximum bets.

BetGames publishes one figure per game instead: 94.74% in the rules of Wheel of Fortune, which by our arithmetic every bet at its demo's odds returns, and 95% for Classic Wheel. Pragmatic's page for Sweet Bonanza CandyLand gives no figure, and the game's help shows the one the table fills in. Every figure here is below 100%, and no staking pattern or system beats the house edge.
