The BitLife casino

How to go to the casino in BitLife, which games are free, how blackjack works, how to avoid a gambling addiction, and the ribbons.

Age your character to 18. Then tap Activities, then Casino. Pick one of the two casinos on the list, choose a game, and set your bet.

Blackjack is free for every player. The other casino games come with the Casino Expansion Pack, a paid add-on. In some countries gambling is illegal, and the game shows a pop-up when you tap Casino.

  1. Reach age 18. The BitLife wiki lists 18 as the age for the casino.
  2. Open the Activities menu.
  3. Tap Casino.
  4. Choose one of the two casinos. The wiki says the names are random, and the choice does not change the game.
  5. Choose a game and an amount to bet.

The free casino has blackjack. The Casino Expansion Pack adds eight more games, according to the BitLife wiki and the pack guides. Guides do not agree on the full list of eight. The table shows only the games that several sources name.

Candywriter teased the Casino Expansion Pack on its BitLife X account in November 2024. Guides report that it came out that same month. The pack also lets you own and run a casino. You install games in its game rooms, and you play only the games that you installed.

We do not print a price. Prices differ by country, and they can change. Check the Expansion Packs menu in the game, or read is BitLife free for the other purchases.

You and the dealer each get two cards. One dealer card is face up. You play first: hit to take a card, or stand to stop. If you go over 21, you lose.

The BitLife wiki lists these rules:

  • A normal win pays two times your bet.
  • A blackjack, an Ace and a 10-value card as your first two cards, pays three times your bet.
  • A tie gives your bet back.
  • Five cards that do not go over 21 beat the dealer, at any total. The dealer cannot win this way.
  • When the dealer shows an Ace, you can buy insurance for half your bet. If the dealer has blackjack, you get your bet back.

No method wins every time. The games use chance. These tips come from player guides, and they improve your odds in blackjack.

  • Hit when your hand is 11 or less. You cannot go over 21 with one more card.
  • Stand at 17 or more. Some guides say to stand from 15, unless the dealer shows a strong card.
  • Get a job with good pay first. Guides warn that players without an income go into debt at the casino.
  • Stop after a big win. Your lifetime winnings count for the ribbons and challenges below, and losses take them away.

Visit the casino less often. Guides say that many visits to the casino or the horse track can give your character a gambling addiction. The chance is random, so a few visits can be enough.

Pro Game Guides says that a high discipline stat lowers the chance of a new addiction. You raise discipline with meditation. Small bets over many hands are the fastest way to an addiction, so avoid them if you do not want one.

If you get an addiction, use the Rehab options in the game. The wiki lists three cures: an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, a hypnotherapy session, and a rehab center. The meetings are free, so try them first.

RewardTypeHow to get it
HighrollerRibbonDie with lifetime gambling winnings of 1 million or more
AddictRibbonDie with two or more addictions; gambling can be one
Player PerksAchievementAccept a hospitality offer from a casino
LowrollerAchievementGet refused entry to a casino

The game picks one ribbon when you die. The wiki warns that with two addictions, you can get Addict instead of Highroller.

The Gambler Challenge also uses the casino. It asks for 10 million or more in lifetime casino earnings, wins on 10 or more horse bets, and a gambling addiction that you overcome. Ribbon and challenge rules can change with game updates.
