Snow Run

What Is Snow Run?

Snow Run brings the CCTV game format to alpine ski slopes. Multiple camera angles - POV, drone, and slope-side - capture skiers as they move through the detection zone. AI tracks and counts them in real time. The third title in the portfolio, Snow Run expands the category into winter sports territory.

Snow Run launches on 7 April 2026. It is the third CCTV game from 155.io and the first to use multiple camera angles (POV, drone, slope-side). Distribution is confirmed on Roobet, Stake, and Shuffle. If you want to be ready on day one, create accounts at operators that already carry Rush Hour and Duck River.

How Snow Run Works

Snow Run uses the same core prediction format: a betting window, a counting phase where AI tracks skiers crossing a detection zone, and a result. The multi-camera setup is new - you may see the action from different vantage points as the round progresses. The alpine setting means natural variability in how many skiers appear in any given window.

Camera Setup

Snow Run introduces the most advanced camera setup in the CCTV game portfolio. For the first time, players will see footage from multiple vantage points during a single round.

The confirmed camera types include POV cameras mounted on the slopes for immersive ground-level footage, drone cameras providing aerial views of the ski runs, and traditional slope-side cameras capturing the full detection zone. This multi-angle approach gives Snow Run a visual richness that Rush Hour and Duck River do not have.

Specific ski resort locations have not yet been announced. 155.io uses licensed feeds, direct partnerships, and authorised streams. Expect alpine locations with consistent skier traffic during operating hours.

AI Detection Technology

The AI layer is what makes CCTV games visually distinct from every other betting format. During each round of Snow Run, a computer vision model processes the live camera feed in real time, identifying and tracking skiers as they move through the scene.

Every detected object gets a bounding box, a green rectangle drawn around it on screen with a classification label and confidence score (for example, "Skier 93%"). Players can watch these boxes appear, track, and count in real time. The detection zone is a clearly marked area on the screen. Only objects that cross this zone are included in the final count.

The counting process is transparent by design. There is no hidden algorithm deciding outcomes. The AI counts what it sees, and every player watching the same round sees the same bounding boxes, the same tracking, and the same final number. This level of visibility is unprecedented in online gambling.

Results are secured using blockchain seed pairs. Every round produces a permanent video record with detection overlays burnt in. The seed pair and final count are verifiable via blockchain hash, adding a cryptographic layer of trust on top of the visual transparency.

Bet Types & Payouts

RTP and House Edge

Understanding the return-to-player (RTP) breakdown for Snow Run is essential for making informed betting decisions. The house edge varies significantly across bet types, and choosing the right one determines your long-term expected returns.

Over/Under Bets (95-97% RTP): These are the core bets for most players. With payouts of 3x (Under) and 3.60x (Over), the house edge sits at 3-5%. Over a large number of bets, these return 95-97 cents per dollar wagered. This is competitive with the best online slots and significantly better than most table games.

Range Bets (~93-95% RTP): Range bets ask you to predict that the count falls within a specified window. The wider target means a higher hit rate (approximately 40%) but a lower payout at 2.25x. The house edge is moderate, making this a good option for players who prefer consistency over volatility.

Exact Bets (75-85% RTP): The highest-risk, highest-reward option. Predicting the exact final count pays 18x but carries a house edge of 15-25%. The hit rate is roughly 5%. Experienced players treat Exact bets as occasional high-variance plays rather than a core strategy.

For a detailed comparison of how these numbers stack up against slots and table games, see our CCTV Games vs Slots guide. The key takeaway: stick to Over/Under for the best risk-adjusted returns.

Strategy Notes

Until the game is live and players can observe count distributions across different slopes and times of day, specific strategy advice is limited. The bet types and payout structure match Rush Hour and Duck River. Start with Over/Under to get a feel for the count ranges before placing Exact bets.

Tips for New Players

If you are new to Snow Run or CCTV games in general, these practical tips will help you get started on the right foot. For a more detailed walkthrough, see our Best CCTV Game for Beginners guide.

Watch before you bet. Spend your first few rounds just observing. Watch how the AI tracks objects, pay attention to the detection zone boundaries, and get a feel for typical count ranges. Every CCTV game lets you spectate rounds without placing a bet.

Start with Over/Under. These are the simplest bet types and offer the best RTP (95-97%). Binary outcomes (more or fewer than the target) are easier to reason about than ranges or exact numbers. Once you are comfortable, branch into Range bets.

Use minimum stakes initially. While you are learning count patterns, keep your bets small. The goal in early sessions is understanding, not profit. Increase stakes only once you have a genuine feel for how counts distribute.

Pay attention to location. In Rush Hour, traffic density varies dramatically between Tokyo rush hour and Arizona off-peak. In Duck River, water flow affects duck clustering. These environmental factors influence count distributions and should inform your bet selection.

Set a budget and stick to it. Every CCTV game has a house edge. Over enough rounds, the operator will profit. Decide before you start how much you are willing to lose, and stop when you hit that number. See our Responsible Play page for more on managing your gambling.

Avoid chasing Exact bets. The 18x payout is attractive, but the 15-25% house edge means you will lose money faster on Exact bets than on any other type. Use them sparingly for excitement, not as a recovery strategy.
