About Tower Game

Tower is an educational demonstration of progressive risk and multiplier psychology in gambling. Players climb a virtual tower by selecting the correct block from multiple options at each level. Each successful level increases the multiplier, but one wrong choice ends the game and loses everything.

This game serves as an excellent educational tool to understand:

  • How progressive risk creates psychological pressure to continue
  • The "sunk cost fallacy" - continuing because you've already invested
  • How multiplier games create addiction through escalating rewards
  • The mathematics of compound probability in gambling
  • Why "just one more level" thinking leads to significant losses

The game offers three difficulty levels that change the number of safe blocks per level: Easy mode has 3 safe blocks out of 4 (75% success rate), Normal has 2 out of 3 (66.7%), and Hard has 1 out of 2 (50%). As you climb higher, the cumulative probability of success decreases exponentially, but the potential rewards increase dramatically.

⚠️ Gambling Awareness Warning

This is a demo version for educational purposes only. Tower games are particularly dangerous because they create a false sense of skill and control, while exploiting the sunk cost fallacy. The escalating multipliers can be extremely addictive.

  • Each level choice is random - there's no skill involved
  • The probability of reaching high levels is extremely low
  • The "just one more level" mentality leads to devastating losses
  • Sunk cost fallacy makes players continue despite poor odds
  • Seek help if you think you have a gambling problem

Understanding Tower Mathematics

Tower games demonstrate several important mathematical concepts:

Compound Probability

Success probability decreases exponentially:

Level N = (Success Rate)^N

Example: Normal mode Level 10 = (0.667)^10 = 1.7%

Expected Value

Despite high multipliers, expected value is negative:

  • Easy Mode: ~97.5% RTP
  • Normal Mode: ~97% RTP
  • Hard Mode: ~96.5% RTP

The Sunk Cost Fallacy

Players often think: "I've already climbed 15 levels, I can't stop now!" But each level is an independent decision. The money already "invested" in previous levels is gone regardless of what you do next.

⚠️ The "Just One More" Trap

The most dangerous aspect of Tower games is the constant temptation to climb "just one more level." Each level seems achievable individually, but the cumulative risk is enormous. This is exactly how these games are designed to be addictive.

The Psychology Behind Tower Games

🧠 Escalation of Commitment

The more levels you climb, the harder it becomes to stop. Your brain focuses on the potential reward rather than the increasing risk.

💭 Illusion of Control

Choosing which block to click creates a false sense that skill is involved, when outcomes are purely random.

🎯 Near-Miss Effect

Getting close to high levels creates excitement and the feeling that big wins are "almost" achievable.

⚡ Variable Reward Schedule

Unpredictable wins at different levels create the strongest form of behavioral reinforcement.
