Various online Mines games like Cleopatra Mines say they have an RTP of 94%. Yet if I have 1 mine out of 25 squares and bet $1, dodging that mine once returns $1.01, which at face value would appear to be a 96.96% RTP.
Do you all believe the game is rigged/not as it appears, or that the 94% RTP is an aggregate of various betting scenarios?

Just checking but you do realize RPT is not the same as win frequency?

Yes.
If the game plays "true", you would win 96% of the time in the setup pictured (if you quit after one guess), but your RTP would be 96.96%. (For every $25 spent, you would expect to get back 24 x $1.01 = $24.24.)
My question is: does the game play true?
