For players and operators

Original development

WinJoy’s original
game mechanic

Created by WinJoy, Linerun turns cell selection and a shared moving line into the core of play. Different formats build on the same mechanic.

Player engagement

Acquisition
and retention

A clear first interaction helps new players get started. Position choices, changing multipliers and shared play add depth designed to support engagement and retention.

Shared experience

One field.
Shared action.

Positions, changing multipliers and visible bets give players different choices to explore while everyone follows the same line.

Retention by design

Depth beyond
the first bet

Different cell positions, multiple selections and shared activity give the mechanic depth beyond its first impression. Designed for lasting engagement.

Verify the line’s path

Provably Fair

Players can independently verify the line’s path using the data, tools and instructions built into every Linerun game.

The science of almost

Near-misses can feel different from clear losses - even when the outcome is the same.

Almost has an impact

Near-misses can engage parts of the brain circuitry also involved in wins. Linerun makes that closeness visible - players see the line pass beside their chosen cell.

Near-miss. Built in

No extra reel animation. No “you almost won” replay. In Linerun, a close call emerges from the line’s predetermined path - independently of where players place their bets.

Choice makes it personal

Research shows that personal choice can shape the near-miss response. In Linerun, players choose their own cells and follow the approaching line - making each close call specific to their pick.

FAQ

How does Linerun work?

Players choose cells on a shared field and place bets at the displayed multipliers. The multiplier is locked when the bet is placed. If the moving line crosses a chosen cell, that bet wins.

Why do the multipliers change?

Available multipliers change as the line moves across the field. Different cell positions carry different probabilities and potential payouts. Once a bet is placed, its multiplier stays fixed.

Does Linerun have rounds?

It depends on the format. Linerun Classic runs continuously, without separate round resets. Linerun Rounds brings the same core idea into individual rounds. Each game page identifies the format it uses.

What is shared between players?

Players follow the same line on the same game field and can see other players’ bets. Each player chooses their own cells and stakes, and each bet is settled individually.

Can players verify the line’s path?

Yes. Linerun is Provably Fair. Players can independently verify the line’s path using the verification data and tools built into each game. Instructions explain how to perform the check.

Is Linerun a skill game?

No. Players choose where and when to place their bets, but those choices do not control the line. Outcomes follow the game’s mathematical model, and no strategy guarantees a win.

Can Linerun support different game themes?

Yes. Its core interaction can be presented through different worlds, characters and visual styles. Tapium introduces the abstract format.
