Tower Rush boasts simple rules and just one really challenging choice. We've got you covered with everything you need to know before your first wager, including a full explanation of how the game works mechanically, what all three bonus floors are worth, and the key stats regarding RTP and maximum win.
Mechanics Explained
Once you ignore the graphics, every round of Tower Rush boils down to the same question repeated on each level: Cash Out now, or add one more?
Adding each level increases your multiplier, though the specific increment for that level can vary between a predefined range of possible increments generated by the RNG. All that said, the entire outcome of every round is decided before the round itself even begins. This is the Provably Fair mechanic at play: the result has already been set, you just don’t know the answer yet. You can’t change the result by adding floors; it’s just that you can control whether you decide to keep adding floors or call it quits.
Since the tower will collapse at the predetermined time, there’s nothing you can do to prevent it. The only thing that matters is at which point you choose to leave.
Step-by-Step: How a Round Works
Select a Wager
Your wager can be any amount between $0.10 and $100 and must be chosen before the Build button is activated. This means you won't be able to change it mid-game. Since Tower Rush is a relatively volatile game (i.e., there aren't many low-stakes wins in the early stages of play), if you're new to the game, we recommend playing for a few minutes with very small wagers to get the hang of things.
Hit Build
When you activate the game, the tower begins to build, and your multiplier increases with each level. The game doesn't feature an auto-play option, so each additional level requires a conscious decision on your part.
Decide floor by floor
As far as speed goes, the game is entirely up to you. You can take as much or as little time as you want to make your decision and select the next level. Every time a level is added, your current multiplier goes up, as does the level of risk that the tower will collapse on that level.
Cash out
To secure your winnings, hit Cash Out at any time during your game. You will receive an amount equal to the stake multiplied by the current value of the multiplier.
Stake × Current Multiplier = Payout
Example: $10 bet × 8.4x multiplier = $84 payout
Or the Tower Collapses
If the tower collapses before you Cash Out, you will lose your entire wager. Unless, of course, a Frozen Floor is triggered earlier on in the game. In the latter case, you will still receive an amount equal to the frozen value.
The Three Bonus Floors
One of these three floors will randomly trigger between floor two and the end of the round. We don't know exactly where it will appear or how often these will show up, but we do know exactly how they work once we do see them.
Frozen Floor
One floor of insurance
On the floor that triggers, your multiplier at that exact moment will be locked. Should the tower collapse on the next floor, you'll receive a payout that is equal to the value of that multiplier rather than simply losing your wager.
A single level of protection. When the trigger appears, you'll see your frozen multiplier and can make a decision to either cash out or press on to the next floor.
⚠️ Important: The Frozen Floor is only a temporary fix. If you elect to keep building and the tower collapses two or more floors after the floor that triggered the Frozen Floor, your payout is lost in full.
Temple Floor
Multiplier wheel spin
This floor results in a wheel spin where each segment has a value ranging from 2x all the way up to 20x. Your current multiplier is then multiplied by the value you landed on in the spin.
Keep in mind that this is not an addition. For example, if you are currently at 8x and land on a 15x multiplier, you will receive 120x. The Temple Floor wheel spin has been independently certified by GLI and Gaming Associates. If the base multiplier at that point is high enough, a Temple Floor result could very well send you close to, or all the way up to, the game's 100x maximum win limit in one fell swoop.
✅ You cannot reduce a multiplier on the wheel, meaning the 2x minimum will always force your multiplier up.
Triple Build
Three floors at once
Increases the tower by 3 floors in one action. These three floors each have individual multiplier increases, and the total effect is highest when occurring in the late game – when you're already on a big multiplier increase.
🚀 The most common path to the max win of 100x. $100 x 100 x 100 x 100x = $10,000 at $100 stake.
Understanding the Math
Return on bet on a long-term basis of $96–$97. Each $100 bet. Short-term results will vary widely due to high volatility.
Periods of non-target results before the round produce a result that will exceed the target and recover the loss. This is how the math works.
Maximum win per round = 100x. $100 stake x 100x multiplier = $10,000.
Practical Playing Tips
💡 Choose Your Target Before Building the Tower
Set your target multiplier before you build a round ("I will cash out at 5x"). When you hit that amount, you press cash out. Do not second-guess yourself during the round or wait until the last moment.
⚠️ Never Adjust Your Target While the Round is Active
You hit 4x, the round continues to grow, and you want just one more. That's when 4x turns into a loss. You decide your target between rounds, not while the round is running.
🎯 Bonus Floors Are Not Collapse Warnings
Bonus floors and collapse probability are governed by two independent RNG generators. A Frozen Floor does not indicate an impending collapse. A Triple Build does not indicate a green light. They are multipliers, not warnings.
FAQ
Can you pause a round once it has started? ▼
No, once you build, the round is live; either cash out, or it collapses. You cannot pause a round or alter a stake once the round has started.
What if I cash out on a floor that has a bonus? ▼
The cash out wins. The round is done, you win the current multiplier, and the bonus will not be applied.
How can I confirm the Provably Fair system? ▼
See the in-game help option to run a Provably Fair check. The round outcome is established before the round starts. You can run a check after the round to confirm the outcome did not change. Certified by GLI and Gaming Associates.
What are low-target vs high-target playing styles? ▼
Lower target multipliers will produce many wins, but the amount will be small. Higher target multipliers will produce many losses but will occasionally produce wins that exceed the losses. The long-run expected value remains unchanged. Both strategies have their strengths and weaknesses. A strategy targeting higher multipliers means you have to weather longer losing streaks in the hope that your next win will be bigger.
How high can a tower go? ▼
The game caps at 100x. The game will force a cash out if you get to 100x. The great majority of rounds do not get anywhere near 100x. This only comes into play on the Temple Floors.
