Simple Game (instant win)

Put a prize behind a single tap: a banner, a few lines of copy, and the chance of winning or a draw entry.

A Simple Game has no wheel or card: players tap once and see straight away whether they've won. Studio lists it as Simple Game. Here, Lindenhall's Snowball Surprise hides a £10 gift card, with a one-in-five chance.
