Responsible Play

Atlantic Horizon Game is committed to promoting safe and responsible digital entertainment practices. Although our platform offers exclusively free social games with no real-money involvement, we recognise the importance of addressing responsible play in a transparent and proactive manner.

1. Our Platform

All games available on atlantichorizongame.com are social entertainment simulators. They do not involve real-money betting, deposits, withdrawals, or monetary prizes. Results are randomly generated for recreational purposes and have no financial value. The platform is intended exclusively for adults aged 18 or over.

Although we are not a casino or betting house, we believe it is important to cultivate healthy habits when using any form of digital entertainment, including social games.

2. Responsible Play Principles

We encourage all our users to follow these guidelines:

  • Play for fun: Use the platform as a form of entertainment and leisure, never as a source of income or escape from personal problems.
  • Set time limits: Define maximum play periods and respect them. Take regular breaks and maintain a healthy balance with other activities.
  • Do not play under influence: Avoid using the platform when under the influence of alcohol, medication, or in an altered emotional state.
  • Protect minors: Do not allow anyone under 18 to access the platform. Use parental controls on your device if necessary.
  • Recognise the signs: If you feel that time spent gaming is negatively affecting your personal, professional, or social life, seek help.

3. Warning Signs

Pay attention to the following signs that may indicate problematic behaviour related to gaming or digital entertainment:

  • Spending more time gaming than planned, repeatedly.
  • Neglecting family, work, or social responsibilities.
  • Feeling irritation or anxiety when unable to play.
  • Using gaming as a way to cope with stress, depression, or emotional problems.
  • Hiding time or money spent on gaming activities (including on other platforms).
  • Trying to recover «losses» in real-money games on other platforms.

If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone close to you, we recommend seeking professional support immediately.

4. Support Resources

There are specialised organisations that offer free and confidential support to people affected by problematic gaming behaviour:

  • BeGambleAware — Information, advice, and support for responsible gaming.
  • GamCare — Counselling, support, and treatment services for gambling problems.
  • SICAD (Portugal): Intervention Service for Addictive Behaviours and Dependencies — information and referral to support services in Portugal.
  • Linha Vida: 1414 — Crisis support helpline in Portugal for emotional emergencies.

5. Our Commitment

Atlantic Horizon Game implements the following measures to promote responsible play: mandatory age verification before accessing content; clear notices about the recreational and free nature of games on all pages; visible links to support organisations in the footer and on legal notice pages; informative content about safe digital entertainment practices; and a zero-tolerance policy for minors.
