How Mines Works
Mines is a 5×5 grid game (25 tiles total). Before each round, you choose how many mines to hide — anywhere from 1 to 24. The more mines you hide, the higher your multiplier grows with each safe tile revealed, but the harder it is to survive.
Set Your Bet & Mine Count
Choose your bet (A$0.10–A$100) and how many mines to hide (1–24). More mines = higher multiplier per tile but greater risk. Beginners should start with 3–5 mines.
Click a Tile to Reveal It
💎 Gem = safe tile, multiplier grows. 💣 Mine = game over, bet lost. Every click is a decision: keep going for a bigger multiplier, or lock in your winnings.
Cash Out at Any Time
Hit “Cash Out” after any safe tile to collect your current multiplier × your original bet. You can cash out after the very first gem. The longer you wait, the bigger the potential payout — and the bigger the risk.
Use Auto-Bet for Strategy Runs
Configure auto-bet to always reveal a fixed number of tiles per round (e.g. always reveal 3 tiles then auto-cashout). Consistent stop points prevent emotional decisions in the heat of the moment.
How to Play Mines Smarter
No strategy eliminates risk in Mines — but disciplined play dramatically improves your long-term results.
The Fixed-Stop Approach
Decide before every round exactly how many tiles you will reveal — then always cash out at that number regardless of temptation. For example: “I always reveal exactly 3 tiles then cash out.” This removes emotion from the equation entirely.
Consistent returns, bonus wagering
Low Mine Count Grinding
Use 1–3 mines and reveal many tiles per round. Lower volatility, more frequent small wins. At 1 mine and 10 tiles revealed, you win A$1.89 on a A$1 bet — slowly but consistently. Great for clearing wagering requirements before withdrawing at King Johnnie.
Beginners, bonus clearing
High Mine Count Hunting
Set 10–15 mines and go for a small number of tiles (2–3 reveals). You’ll lose most rounds but the rare successful round returns 5–20× your bet. Set a strict session budget — e.g. 20 rounds maximum — and never extend it after losses.
Thrill seekers, big win hunters
Auto-Bet with Stop Conditions
Configure auto-bet to: reveal fixed tiles per round, stop-on-win above A$X, stop-on-loss below A$Y. This runs your strategy without manual input and removes the “one more tile” temptation that destroys most sessions.
Disciplined bankroll management

Mines FAQ
Is Mines available at King Johnnie Casino Australia?
Yes. Mines by Spribe is available in the Instant Win / Crash Games section of King Johnnie Casino. It’s accessible 24/7 on desktop and mobile browsers — no download required. Simply log in, navigate to the game lobby, and search “Mines” to start playing immediately.
How many mines should I choose as a beginner?
Start with 3 mines. This gives a reasonable multiplier growth per tile while keeping the probability of survival manageable. With 3 mines, revealing 3 tiles gives around 1.49× — enough to feel rewarding without the brutal swings of 10+ mine configurations. Once you’re comfortable, experiment with 5–7 mines for larger multipliers.
What is the RTP of Mines at King Johnnie?
Mines by Spribe has a 97% RTP — one of the highest in the King Johnnie game library. This applies across all mine count configurations. The 97% is calculated over a statistically significant number of rounds, not per session. Individual session results will vary widely, especially with high mine counts.
Can I use my King Johnnie bonus on Mines?
Crash games including Mines may have a reduced wagering contribution percentage compared to standard pokies at King Johnnie — often 10–25% rather than 100%. This means more rounds are needed to clear wagering requirements when playing Mines with bonus funds. Always check the specific bonus terms before playing. If you want to clear wagering efficiently, Low mine count configurations (1–3 mines) keep variance low and help sustain your bonus balance.
How do I verify Mines is provably fair?
After each Mines round, Spribe reveals the server seed used to generate the mine positions. You can combine this with your client seed to mathematically verify that the mine layout was fixed before you clicked the first tile — proving the outcome could not have been manipulated mid-game. The verification tool is available in the Mines game interface under “Fairness” or “Provably Fair.”
