Three acts written here, one already dancing on the stage, and no catch hidden in the curtain.
A free-to-play social casino: slot-style acts we wrote ourselves, played with virtual coins. Spin, climb the levels and work through missions. Putting money down, taking money home and buying anything are not on the bill.

Nothing of value is staked or won, so what Marionette Pier offers is not gambling under the Gambling Act 2005. Meringue keeps the 18+ rule even so.
Curtain rule number one: only adults aged 18 or over are seated at Marionette Pier. The show is paid for in virtual coins of no monetary value, and buying, selling, withdrawing or exchanging them is never possible. From the kiosk to the gilded stage there is no coin shop and no payment page, no prize of real-world value is ever presented, and success here does not imply future success at real-money gambling.
