Terms of use

The ground rules for Reel Afterglow, written to be read rather than skimmed. The short version: it's free, it's for adults, and nothing here is worth money.

Last updated 13 November 2026

1. Who we are

Reel Afterglow (“Reel Afterglow”, “we”, “us”) is a free-to-play social casino website. It is operated by reelafterglow.com, hello@reelafterglow.com. You can reach us at hello@reelafterglow.com.

Reel Afterglow is not a gambling operator. We do not accept wagers of money or anything of value, and we do not offer prizes.

2. Accepting these terms

These terms apply whenever you visit the site or play any of its games. By using Reel Afterglow you agree to them. If you don't agree, please don't use the site. Our privacy notice and cookie notice explain how information is handled and form part of these terms.

3. Who can play

Reel Afterglow is intended for adults in Canada who are 19 years of age or older. The minimum age for gaming is 18 in Alberta, Manitoba and Quebec and 19 in the rest of Canada; we apply 19+ everywhere so that the rule is the same for everyone.

This English-language site is not directed at residents of Quebec.

Before your first round, each game asks you to confirm that you meet the age requirement. By confirming, you tell us that you do. If you are under 19, you must not use the games. Parents and guardians can find tips on keeping devices age-appropriate on our responsible play page.

4. Free to play

Every game on Reel Afterglow is free. There is no charge to visit the site, to play, or to refill your balance, and there is no subscription. Reel Afterglow does not offer real-money gambling or any chance to win real money or prizes. Playing here does not suggest that you would have similar results in any game played for money.

5. Dusk Coins

The games use a virtual currency called Dusk Coins. Each player starts with 5,000 Dusk Coins and can refill to 5,000 at any time, free of charge. By using Dusk Coins you accept that:

  • Dusk Coins have no monetary or cash value and are not your property;
  • they cannot be purchased, sold, traded, gifted or transferred to anyone else;
  • they cannot be withdrawn, cashed in, redeemed or exchanged for money, goods, services or prizes of any kind;
  • your balance is stored only in your browser on your device, and it may be lost or reset if you clear your browser data, change device or use a private window;
  • we may reset balances, adjust stakes or change how Dusk Coins work, for example to fix an error.

6. No in-app purchases

There are no in-app purchases on Reel Afterglow. We do not sell Dusk Coins, extra features, power-ups or anything else, and we will never ask you for payment details. If you see an offer to buy Dusk Coins or anything connected with Reel Afterglow, it does not come from us.

7. How the games work

The outcomes of our games are generated at random by your browser and are simulated for entertainment only. Each round is independent of every round before it. The rules and payout tables for each game are shown inside the game and on its page. If there is a conflict between a game's description and the way the game actually behaves, the game's in-panel rules apply, and any malfunction voids the affected round.

Because Dusk Coins have no value, no result in any game entitles you to any payment or reward.

8. Play tools

We provide reality-check reminders, breaks of 1 hour, 24 hours or 7 days, and options to reset your balance or forget your settings. A break, once chosen, stays in place until it ends. These tools work on the device and browser where you set them. They are there to help you, but you remain responsible for how long you play.

9. Acceptable use

Please use Reel Afterglow fairly and lawfully. You agree not to:

  • use the site if you are under 19;
  • attempt to sell, trade or advertise Dusk Coins, or to present them as having any value;
  • copy, scrape, reverse-engineer or interfere with the site or its games beyond what your browser normally does;
  • introduce malicious code, overload our hosting, or try to gain access to systems you are not authorized to use;
  • use the site in a way that breaks any law or infringes anyone's rights.

We may block access to the site where we reasonably believe these terms have been broken.

10. Intellectual property

The name Reel Afterglow, the logo, the site design, illustrations, game artwork, text and code belong to the operator or its licensors. You may use the site for your own personal, non-commercial entertainment. You may not reproduce, distribute or create derivative works from any part of it without our written permission.

11. Availability and changes to the games

We try to keep Reel Afterglow running smoothly, but we can't promise it will always be available or free of errors. We may update, change, suspend or retire any game or feature at any time, and we may close the site altogether. Because the site holds nothing of value for you, no compensation is owed if this happens.

12. Liability

Reel Afterglow is provided “as is” and “as available”, for entertainment only. To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect or consequential loss, for loss of data stored on your device, or for any loss arising from your use of, or inability to use, the site. Nothing in these terms limits or excludes any liability that cannot be limited or excluded by law, including any rights you have under the consumer protection laws of your province.

We link only to independent support services and regulators, such as ConnexOntario and the Responsible Gambling Council. We are not responsible for the content of those sites, but we include them because they offer genuine, free help.

14. Your device

Reel Afterglow runs in your web browser and keeps your balance and settings in that browser's local storage. You are responsible for the device and browser you use, including who else can use them. If you share a device, anyone using the same browser profile will see the same balance and settings and can change the same play tools. Keeping your browser profile private is the simplest way to keep your settings your own.

15. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time, for example when we add a game or the law changes. The date at the top of this page shows when they were last changed. If you keep using the site after an update, the new terms apply.

16. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada that apply there. Any dispute will be dealt with by the courts of Ontario, without affecting any right you may have to bring a claim in the courts of the province where you live.

17. The whole agreement

These terms, together with our privacy and cookie notices, are the whole agreement between you and us about Reel Afterglow. If a court decides that part of them can't be enforced, the rest still applies. If we don't enforce a term straight away, we can still rely on it later.

18. Contact

Questions about these terms are welcome. Write to hello@reelafterglow.com or by post to reelafterglow.com, hello@reelafterglow.com.
