The player must send a message to the “Guardian of the Treasure” (Novaryon), using a logical, persuasive argument or problem-solving strategy. The goal is to convince Novaryon to “release the treasure”.
There are no dice rolls, no random triggers, and no chance-based mechanics — the outcome depends on how well the player thinks, how clear their reasoning is, and how strong their argument becomes.
This mechanism makes creativity, reasoning and perspective genuinely matter. The result is not determined solely by randomness or an uncontrollable algorithm.
In gambling (e.g., lottery, slot machines), outcomes are essentially random and the player has no meaningful ability to influence the result beyond participation.
In contrast, a skill-based game (English: game of skill) relies on the player’s abilities, knowledge, strategy and decisions. Wikipedia | iclg.com
Under Hungarian law as well, this distinction is essential: if a game does not rely purely on chance, it does not automatically fall under “gambling” regulations.
The player pays a fee (e.g. 1000 HUF) to send a message — this represents active participation and contributes to the prize pool.
In the message, the player must present an argument, logical step or strategy that could convince Novaryon — meaning the outcome is influenced by thought, intention and decision-making.
If Novaryon determines that the player’s message successfully met the challenge, the prize pool is released. Therefore, the outcome depends on the player’s input and the success of their reasoning, not solely on luck.
