🧠 The Science Behind It

Slot machines are called the "crack cocaine of gambling" because of intermittent reinforcement — unpredictable rewards spike dopamine far more powerfully than guaranteed ones. A "maybe" is neurologically more addictive than a certainty. This system applies that same psychology to the habits you actually want.

📎 Step 1 — Grab a Clip

• Every time you complete 15 minutes of praying, reach into the bag and grab one random paperclip.
• Clips come in 7 colors: Red, Teal, Blue, Yellow, Purple, Orange, Pink.
• There is a small chance (~2%) of pulling a ✨ Golden clip.
• You earn one wheel spin per habit completion.

💰 Step 2 — Cash In (Optional)

Before spinning, you can cash in matching clips to upgrade the tiers available on the wheel:

Unused clips stay in your hand for future spins.

🎡 Step 3 — Spin the Wheel

Near miss: Landing on a tier you haven't activated gives Tier 1 — just like a slot machine!

⭐ Bonus Round

• Automatically collect your highest unlocked tier reward.
• Spin the bonus wheel to see how many minutes of praying you need for a bonus clip.
• All outcomes earn 1 bonus clip — the only difference is the cost:
• Free · 3 · 6 · 10
• You have 10 minutes to complete them!
• The bonus clip goes into your hand — cash it in for another spin.

✨ The Golden Clip

• Approximately 2% chance per draw — very rare.
• Cash it in alone to instantly unlock all tiers.
• It pulses gold in your hand — hard to miss.
• You can also hold it and save it for when you really want a big reward shot.

🫙 The Progress Jars

• Every spin earns a clip that goes into your active jar.
• Your three jars: HDPD, STUDY, SELF-RELIANCE.
• Fill to milestones to unlock prizes — click a jar in the Simulator to switch which one you're filling.

🚫 The 3 Reward Rules

• Highly addicting: Even thinking about it should spike dopamine.
• Time or money sink: Something you want to rein in (scrolling, gaming, etc.).
• No naked rewards: Never do the reward outside the system. If you can get it free, the system loses its power — just like a slot machine next to someone handing out free coins.
