Wheel Spin

The Wheel Spin game presents a circular wheel divided into segments. Each segment represents a prize or a no-prize outcome. When a participant spins, the wheel rotates and decelerates, landing on a segment. The outcome is determined by weighted probabilities assigned to each segment, not purely by visual position.

If the landed segment has a prize, the participant wins that prize. If it is a no-prize segment, the participant receives a "try again" outcome.

Each segment in the wheel is defined in the game's JSONB configuration. A segment includes a label, a prize reference (or null for no prize), and a weight. The weight controls how likely the wheel is to land on that segment relative to the others.

• label: The text displayed on the segment.
• prize: The prize awarded if the wheel lands here, or null for a no-win segment.
• weight: A positive number. The probability of landing on a segment is its weight divided by the total weight of all segments.

For example, with two segments weighted 1 and 9, the first segment has a 10% chance and the second a 90% chance of being selected.

You can cap how many times a single participant can spin the wheel. This prevents abuse and keeps prize distribution fair across a campaign. The spin limit is set in the game configuration and applies per participant.

When a participant wins a prize, an automated email can be sent to deliver the prize details or a redemption code. The email template and sender are configured at the organization level. Prize emails are triggered automatically on a win and logged as part of the prize distribution record.

Before spinning, participants can be asked to provide contact information such as name and email. This turns the game into a lead capture tool: the participant gets a chance to win, and you collect a qualified lead. Lead capture is optional and can be toggled in the game configuration.

Captured leads are stored against the game and can be exported for follow-up campaigns.
