MapleFun.ca – Responsible Gaming

Hey there, at MapleFun.ca, we want everyone to have a good time, but it's important to look after yourself. Gaming should be fun, and it is important to make sure it doesn't take over your life.

1. Gaming Smart:

Keep an eye on how long you're playing and give yourself breaks.
Play for fun, not to fix money problems or anything else that's bugging you.
Watch yourself and see if you're playing too much.

2. Is It Becoming a Problem?

It might be if:

You can't stop playing even when you want to.

You feel bad when you're not playing.
You're blowing off stuff like work or hanging out with people.
You're using games to forget about bad feelings.

If any of this rings a bell, get some help!

3. Some Ideas That Might Help:

Use timers to keep track of how long you're playing.

Make a mental note how often you play.

Decide how much money is okay to spend, and don't go over it.

Do fun stuff away from the screen.
