But why?

But Why? Slot Overview

But Why? is an online slot from Darkbyte, a studio whose name gives you a fair hint about the tone on offer here — expect something a little offbeat rather than another straight-laced fruit machine. Details on the reel layout and bonus mechanics for this release haven't been published in full yet, so treat this as an introduction to what's confirmed rather than a blow-by-blow features breakdown.

What We Know About RTP

The one hard number available for But Why? is its return to player, which sits at 95.0%. That's a fair, middle-of-the-road figure for a modern online slot — not chasing the extremes of a sub-94% budget title, but not stretching into the 97%+ territory reserved for a handful of generous releases either. In practical terms, an RTP of 95.0% means that, over a very large number of spins, the game is designed to pay back £95 for every £100 wagered, with the operator's margin taking the rest. No individual session will land anywhere near that average — it's a long-run figure, not a promise for any one spin.

Volatility And What To Expect

Darkbyte hasn't published official volatility or hit-frequency figures for But Why? at this stage, so we won't guess at a star rating we can't back up. What we can say is that with a name this playful, the developer is clearly leaning into personality and presentation as much as pure mathematics — the sort of slot that rewards a curious player willing to find out what the joke actually is. If you like slots that don't take themselves too seriously, this is worth a look purely on tone alone.

Max Win Potential

No verified maximum win multiplier has been published for But Why? yet. Until Darkbyte confirms a ceiling figure, we'd rather leave the number blank than invent one — plenty of slots from newer studios don't publish max win data until closer to a wider rollout, and it's not unusual for smaller developers to iterate on the math model before locking in the final version.
