What the figures mean
An RTP of 96.42% is a long-run average across millions of spins. It works out at a house edge of 3.58%, so every £100 staked costs £3.58 on average. A session of 200 spins at £1 stakes £200, and the expected cost of that session is £7.16, although the real result will usually land a long way either side. Work out your own figures.
The provider rates volatility as Medium (4 of 10). That describes how winnings are spread: higher volatility means longer runs with little back and rarer, larger wins. It does not change the average. More on volatility, or see it in a simulation.
