How the Ball Drop Works
Plinko replaces reels with a peg board. A ball released from the top bounces through rows of pins before landing in one of the bottom buckets, each carrying its own multiplier or, with Cash Prize active, a fixed payout. Multiball lets several balls drop at once, Pushers nudge trajectories toward richer lanes, and every round resolves the instant a ball settles — there are no cascades or hold states to track.
About Ricochet
Ricochet builds crash and instant-drop titles rather than conventional reel slots. Plinko, released June 26, 2025, sits in that catalogue as a configurable ball-drop game built around player-selected features instead of scatter-triggered bonuses.
Playing Plinko in Canada
A round starts with a stake between $0.10 and $20, set through a single control on the board interface. There is no line or way selection, no reel spin to wait on — just one Play button that releases the ball once the stake and features are confirmed.
Before pressing Play, the board lets players toggle three features: Multiball, Cash Prize, and Pushers, each adjustable from zero up to five instances. This is done ahead of the drop, not triggered mid-round by a symbol or scatter, which puts the configuration entirely in the player's hands each time.
With Multiball active, more than one ball descends in the same round, each following its own random path through the pegs and landing in its own bucket. Cash Prize turns selected buckets into fixed payouts rather than multipliers, and Pushers are described as nudging a ball's trajectory toward higher-value lanes during the descent.
The bottom row is arranged with lower multipliers in the centre lanes and the highest multipliers — up to 200x the stake — sitting at the far edges. A full bucket-by-bucket paytable isn't published; the board only confirms the general low-to-high spread from centre to edge.
One documented build lists 96% RTP, while a separate crash-game listing shows a Ricochet Plinko entry at 99% without confirming it's the same product — a discrepancy worth knowing before assuming either figure applies to every version you might find.

Plinko Return to Player
96.00%
One documented Ricochet build of Plinko runs at 96% RTP; a separate crash-catalogue listing cites 99% for a Ricochet Plinko/crash entry without confirming it's the same product. Treat the two figures as different configurations rather than a single confirmed range.

Plinko Questions
Does enabling Pushers change the bet cost per drop?
Available sources describe Pushers as influencing ball trajectory, not as adding a separate fee; no per-feature pricing is documented.
How many balls can Multiball release in one round?
Reviews cite a maximum of five balls per round when Multiball is active, each landing in its own bucket independently.
What does the 200x figure at the board edges actually mean?
It's the multiplier applied to that round's stake when a ball lands in an edge bucket; it is not a fixed cash amount.
Is the 7000 max exposure figure a multiplier or a cash cap?
Sources quote a Max Exposure of 7000 without stating the unit, so whether it means 7000x stake or a currency limit is not confirmed.
Does Cash Prize replace multiplier buckets or run alongside them?
Descriptions indicate Cash Prize activates fixed-value buckets in place of standard multiplier outcomes for that round, rather than adding an extra payout on top.
Why do some listings show 99% RTP instead of 96%?
A separate crash-game comparison table lists a Ricochet Plinko/crash entry at 99%, but it isn't confirmed to be the same build described in the 96% review, so both figures exist without a clear link between them.
Can the demo be played with the same feature set as real-money mode?
Demo access is confirmed, and Multiball, Cash Prize, and Pusher toggles appear as part of the standard interface, but source material doesn't separately confirm feature parity between demo and real-money sessions.
Does landing in a centre bucket ever pay below 1x?
Centre buckets carry the lowest multipliers on the board, and players note stretches of low-value landings, but the exact minimum multiplier value isn't published.
