Hello Thunkable Team,

I want to create a casino-style game in Thunkable. Can you please guide me?

What components should I use?

How can I implement game logic for features like spinning wheels, card games, or betting systems?

Do you have any video tutorials or example projects that I can follow?

Thank you

Making a **casino game** in Thunkable means creating an interactive app with elements of luck, kind of like slots, blackjack, or a roulette wheel. I took a little guide from ChatGPT and copied it here!

* * *

## **1. Define Your Game Type**

Choose a casino-style game:

- 🎰 **Slot Machine** – Spin reels with symbols and match them to win.
- ♠ **Blackjack** – A simple card game with hit/stand mechanics.
- 🎡 **Roulette** – A spinning wheel where players bet on numbers or colors.
- 🎲 **Dice Game** – Players roll dice to win based on certain conditions.

For this guide, let’s create a **Slot Machine**!

* * *

## **2. Set Up Your Thunkable Project**

1. **Open Thunkable** and create a new project.
2. Set the screen name (e.g., `Screen1`).
3. Add the following UI elements:

- **3 Image Components** (for slot symbols)
- **1 Button** (`Spin` button)
- **1 Label** (to show results/winnings)
- **1 Variable** (to store the player’s balance)

* * *

## **3. Add Slot Symbols**

Prepare images for slot symbols (e.g., 🍒, 🍋, 🔔, 🎰). Upload them to **Assets** in Thunkable.

* * *

## **4. Create the Spinning Logic (Blocks)**

1. When the **Spin button** is clicked:

- Generate **3 random numbers** (each representing a symbol).
- Assign the corresponding images to the slot image components.
- Check if symbols match:
  - If **all 3 match** , award **coins**.
  - If **2 match** , award a **small prize**.
  - Otherwise, deduct a small amount from the player’s balance.

**Example Block Logic:**

- Use `set app variable Slot1 to random integer from 1 to 5`
- Use `if` conditions to check matching symbols.
- Update the UI accordingly.

* * *

## **5. Add a Balance System**

1. Create an **app variable** (e.g., `balance`) and set an initial value (e.g., 1000 coins).
2. When a player **wins** , increase their balance.
3. When they **lose** , deduct coins.
4. If the balance **drops to zero** , show a “Game Over” message.

* * *

## **6. Enhance with Sound & Animation**

- Add **sound effects** for spinning and winning
- Use **timer blocks** to create a realistic spinning effect

* * *

## **7. Animations**

- Add any animation you want by creating through **Canva** , which is recommended for making GIFs.
- Make it animate once your button is clicked.

* * *

## **8. Test & Publish**

- Test the game on your phone through the Thunkable Live Test app
- Fix any bugs.
- Publish your app on **Thunkable Web, Android, or iOS**

> **Note:** Publishing your app on iOS or Android will require you to pass a certain test to publish.

* * *

### **Bonus Features**

- Daily Rewards: Give players free coins every day.
- Leaderboard: Track top scores using **Firebase**.
- In-App Purchases: Allow users to buy more coins (if monetizing).

Hope this helps!
