What is Poutine Shack Ridge?

Your coin balance is saved locally in your browser's storage on the device you're using. It will persist between sessions as long as you use the same browser and don't clear your cache.

I cleared my browser cache and lost my coins. Can you restore them?

Unfortunately, no. Since all data is stored locally on your device, once it's cleared, it cannot be recovered. We recommend being cautious when clearing browser data.

While our games don't involve real money, they simulate gaming mechanics. We maintain an 18+ age requirement to promote responsible entertainment and comply with best practices for social gaming platforms.

Do you collect my personal information?
