What Is HiLo?

HiLo is SmartSoft's low-volatility HiLo instant title with a config-variable max-win class — published ~97.00% RTP band in our catalog.

Confirm HiLo before you assume a peer with similar art. Spribe Hi Lo / PlinkoX can sit beside it in search results.

Compare with Hi Lo and PlinkoX, then confirm the cash RTP panel on a Top 10 brand before you raise stakes.

How HiLo Works

  1. Base spins feed SmartSoft feature pays around the HiLo instant identity. Exact free-spin rules sit in the paytable for your lobby build.
  2. Free spins concentrate larger outcomes under paytable-specific modifiers. Read that card once before the first real-money session.
  3. Max win is variable by configuration. Confirm the help panel for this exact build before you treat any ceiling as fixed.
  4. Low-vol dry spells still happen. Confirm ~97.00% on the cash panel before you raise stakes.
