Four short lines, roughly twenty seconds, and 100,000 coins inked beside your name.
Pumproom Crescent is a free-to-play social casino: Simmerbourne’s three original spa worlds in slot style, all played with virtual coins, and the first of them, the steaming bath hall, opens to every visitor with no sign-up at all. No real-money gambling takes place in the town, no win has real-world value and the app sells nothing. Your account simply holds coins, level and daily missions together beneath the nickname Amblewick inks in his book.
| Line in the book | Why Amblewick asks |
|---|---|
| Nickname | The name Amblewick writes in copperplate. Choose whatever you fancy; he has no use for your real one. |
| Email address | How the book recognises you each time you log in. Amblewick sends no marketing. |
| Password | Kept as a one-way hash that no attendant can turn back into the password. |
| 18+ tick | Simmerbourne’s worlds look and sound like gambling, so Amblewick admits adults only. |
Amblewick asks for no real name, no birthday, no address, no telephone number, and no payment detail of any description. Simmerbourne has no page that takes payment for them to be used on.

Pumproom Crescent admits only grown-ups of 18 and above. Simmerbourne’s worlds run on virtual coins of no monetary value, and Amblewick lets nobody buy, sell, withdraw or exchange even one. The town keeps no coin counter and no page for payments, its prizes never carry real-world value, and success here does not imply future success at real-money gambling.
