Play Safe

Play safe

Free games should stay enjoyable. Here is what we do to help, and where to find support.

Updated: 9 November 2026

Keep it calm

Esma3 Kitaab is free entertainment for adults. No real money changes hands and nothing can be won, yet any game can take more of your time or attention than you planned. These habits help:

  • Decide when you will stop before you start, then stick to it.
  • Take regular breaks. The on-screen clock and hourly reminder are there for that.
  • Don't play when you feel low, stressed or worn out.
  • Remember that winning a free game says nothing about gambling with real money.

When to close the book

  • You often play far longer than you intended.
  • You get edgy or irritable when you can't play.
  • You play to get away from worries or a bad mood.
  • You catch yourself thinking about gambling for real money to "win properly".
  • People close to you have remarked on how much you play.

If any of that rings true, consider taking a pause and speaking to one of the services below.

Pause or limit your profile

Player Care can arrange any of these. Open the form (on every page) and pick what you need:

  • I need a pause: we will switch your profile off for 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days or 6 weeks. You can't sign in until it ends.
  • Put limits on my profile: for instance, turning off the daily bonus.
  • Close my profile: or do it yourself right away from My profile.

A real person deals with every request, usually within one working day.

Tools already built in

  • Time reading is shown in the footer of every page.
  • Hourly nudge: a reminder pops up every 60 minutes.
  • Age check at the gate and again when you join.
  • Nothing to buy: there is no way to spend money anywhere on the site.

Keeping under-18s away

Esma3 Kitaab is strictly for adults aged 18 and over. If children use your device, turn on parental controls on the device or your broadband and don't stay signed in. If you think a child has made a profile, tell us and we will close it.
