Responsible Gaming
Our Commitment to Safer Gambling
At Breakaway Cafe, we're committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. King Johnnie Casino and all gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. We encourage all players to gamble within their means and to seek help if gambling becomes a concern.
Age Verification
Gaming is strictly for persons aged 18 years and over, or the legal gambling age in your state or territory, whichever is higher.
