Gravity Sic Bo by ICONIC21 does a 36-multiplier dice table actually beat the odds?

Gravity Sic Bo by ICONIC21

Gravity Sic Bo has been sitting in ICONIC21’s live lobby since 2022, back when the studio was still called BETER Live and had just opened its Asia-focused vertical. Four years on, random-multiplier dice tables are no longer a novelty — Evolution, Ezugi, Playtech, and Pragmatic Play all run their own versions — so the question isn’t whether Gravity Sic Bo works. It’s whether stacking up to 36 multipliers a round, on top of standard Sic Bo math that already carries a house edge as high as 18.98% on the worst bets, gives players anything the established names don’t. The x1000 ceiling puts it level with the biggest names in the category on paper. What happens underneath that number is less straightforward.

The math model: three dice, one shaky headline RTP

Sic Bo has never had a single RTP. It has never needed one, because the game is really twelve or more separate wagers bolted onto the same table, each with its own probability and its own payout table. Gravity Sic Bo doesn’t change that structure — it inherits it, then adds a multiplier layer on top. That means quoting “the RTP” for this game without specifying the bet is close to meaningless, and it’s worth being precise about what the available figures actually say.

Small and Big bets — the coin-flip wagers on whether the three-dice total lands between 4–10 or 11–17 — return 97.22%, which is the same figure every Sic Bo variant on the market runs, from Playtech to Ezugi to Evolution’s Super Sic Bo. That number is fixed by combinatorics (48.61% win probability, even-money payout) and no multiplier layer changes it, because Small/Big bets don’t qualify for the Gravity multipliers in most implementations of this format.

The figure that needs scrutiny is the 98.11% cited by one live-casino review site as the “optimal theoretical RTP,” attributed to the Any Triple bet. That’s an unusual claim. Across comparable multiplier Sic Bo tables — Evolution’s Super Sic Bo is the clearest documented example — Any Triple sits at roughly 86.11% base RTP even with an x87 multiplier ceiling on that specific bet, because a 2.78% win probability at 30:1 base payout simply doesn’t clear 98% without an enormous multiplier weighting toward that bet. Either Gravity Sic Bo’s multiplier distribution skews unusually heavily toward triple outcomes, or the 98.11% figure and the “Any Triple” attribution don’t belong together. I haven’t found a second source that corroborates the pairing, so treat it as unverified rather than settled — and if you’re chasing that specific number, check the paytable on the table itself before you bet on it.

There’s a second discrepancy worth flagging before it costs anyone money: betting range. One review lists $0.20 to $2,500 per bet. An earlier one, dated 2023, lists $0.20 to $100. Those aren’t close enough to be a rounding issue — either the limits changed materially since launch (plausible, given ICONIC21’s 2024 rebrand and infrastructure move to Bucharest) or one of the two sources is wrong. Confirm the live limit on your operator’s table before assuming either figure.

None of this is unusual for Sic Bo specifically — it’s a game built from a dozen-plus micro-games under one skin, and the moment you add random multipliers, the RTP conversation gets more complicated, not less. What’s less forgivable is a review ecosystem that keeps quoting a single RTP number for a game that doesn’t have one.

Volatility follows the same bet-by-bet split. Small and Big carry low volatility by design — 48.61% win probability, even money, no drama, and no realistic path to a multiplier-driven spike since those bets rarely qualify for the Gravity layer. Double and single-number bets sit in the middle: they land often enough to keep a session moving, and an assigned multiplier turns a modest win into something worth noticing. Specific Triple and Any Triple are where the real volatility lives — a 0.46% chance per specific combination, a payout that’s small without a multiplier and enormous with one. Hit frequency across the table as a whole is high, because you can spread a bet across several positions at once, but hit frequency on any single high-payout position stays exactly as rare as three-dice combinatorics dictate. The multiplier doesn’t change how often triples land. It changes what happens on the rare occasion one does.

What a full table round looks like

The betting layout is the standard Sic Bo grid: Small and Big zones along the outer edges, single-number squares for each face 1–6, double and triple sections in the middle, and total-sum boxes running from 4 through 17. Chip denominations on the table run from $0.20 up through the standard live-casino tiers, and multiple bets can be placed simultaneously across different sections in the same round — that’s normal for the format and not something Gravity Sic Bo changes.

Bet type Base payout Win probability Multiplier range if assigned
Small / Big 1:1 48.61% Rarely qualifies
Single number (1 die shows) 1:1 Up to x1000
Double (specific pair) ~8:1–10:1 Up to x1000
Any Triple ~24:1–30:1 2.78% Up to x1000
Specific Triple ~150:1–180:1 0.46% Up to x1000

Those base figures track standard Sic Bo paytables used across the industry — ICONIC21 hasn’t published a table-specific paytable that deviates from the norm, which is itself worth noting: the Gravity branding sits entirely on the multiplier engine, not on a reworked base game. That’s a reasonable design choice. It also means anyone already comfortable with Sic Bo odds from another provider’s table can sit down at this one without relearning anything.

How the multiplier engine actually works

Here’s the mechanic, stripped of the marketing language some listings wrap around it. Betting opens for roughly 15 seconds. Once it closes, the system randomly generates up to 36 multipliers — the number varies round to round — and assigns each one to a specific bet position on the board: a number, a double, a triple, a combination. The multipliers range from x5 to x1000. The dice then roll (Gravity Sic Bo uses an automatic shaker rather than a dealer physically throwing them, which speeds up rounds but does remove the presenter’s involvement in the actual outcome). If you had a live wager on a position that both wins and carries an assigned multiplier, your payout is the base odds multiplied by whatever value landed on that spot.

That’s the entire feature set. There’s no bonus round, no re-trigger mechanic, no progressive element carrying over between rounds — each round’s multiplier map is generated fresh and disappears the moment the dice settle. Compare that to Evolution’s Super Sic Bo or Ezugi’s Ultimate Sic Bo, which run functionally the same system: random multipliers up to x1000, assigned post-bet, applied instantly. Gravity Sic Bo isn’t doing anything those two aren’t. It’s doing the same thing under a different studio’s branding.

The bet menu itself is standard Sic Bo. Small and Big cover the two total-range wagers at even money. Any Triple pays out when all three dice match, regardless of which number. Specific Triple, Double, Pair, and single-number bets fill out the side wagers, with payouts that scale from roughly 1:1 up through 150:1–180:1 territory for specific triples before any multiplier is applied — those base figures track industry-standard Sic Bo paytables rather than anything ICONIC21 has changed.

The honest limitation here: only some bet types qualify for a multiplier in any given round, and which ones do is itself random. You can build a strategy around Small/Big for steady, low-variance play, but that’s also the bet category least likely to carry a multiplier worth chasing, since the whole point of the Gravity layer is to inflate the long-shot payouts, not the coin flips. If you’re playing this table specifically for the x1000 headline, you’re playing the side bets — and those are the same bets that already carry the worst base odds in the game before any multiplier touches them.

The studio behind the table

Worth knowing before the competitive comparison: ICONIC21 isn’t a new entrant dressed up in a new name. The studio launched in 2018 under BETER Group as BETER Live, built its live-dealer operation out of Kyiv, and added Sic Bo, Baccarat, Andar Bahar, and Bet on Teen Patti to its Asia-focused vertical in 2022 — the same year Gravity Blackjack and Gravity Roulette launched as the studio’s first game-show-style titles. A second studio opened in Bucharest in April 2023, and in September 2024 the business separated from BETER Group entirely, rebranding as ICONIC21 and relocating its headquarters to Limassol, Cyprus, where it now holds an MGA licence and Curacao Gaming Control Board authorisation. That timeline matters for one practical reason: it explains why a 2023-dated review and a more recent one can disagree on something as basic as the betting limit. The infrastructure, and likely the table configuration, moved during that window.

Where this sits in the 2026 live-dealer landscape

Gravity Sic Bo doesn’t exist in a vacuum. It’s the fourth wave of a format that Evolution effectively defined with Super Sic Bo back in April 2019, and it’s now crowded. Evolution’s Super Sic Bo runs a 97.22% RTP on Small/Big, the same $0.20–$2,500 betting range one Gravity Sic Bo listing claims, and an identical x1000 multiplier ceiling — its Any Triple bet is independently documented at roughly 86.11% RTP with an x87 multiplier cap, which is the exact figure Gravity Sic Bo’s 98.11% claim should be measured against and doesn’t cleanly match. Ezugi’s Ultimate Sic Bo mirrors Super Sic Bo’s payout structure outright, down to the same multiplier logic and the same x1000 top end. Playtech’s Sic Bo Deluxe carries the largest base multipliers most trade comparisons identify in this category, plus a slightly higher specific-triple base payout at 180:1 versus the 150:1 more commonly seen elsewhere. Pragmatic Play’s Mega Sic Bo covers the same ground with its own branding.

All five titles — Gravity Sic Bo included — use the identical core idea: random multipliers up to x1000, assigned to winning positions after betting closes, on top of an unchanged classic Sic Bo paytable. None of them differentiate meaningfully from one another on the multiplier mechanic itself. The differentiator, if there is one, is table availability, studio production quality, and which operators carry which brand. Gravity Sic Bo’s automatic shaker and faster round pace are its clearest points of separation from a traditional presenter-run table — it trades a small amount of theatre for speed, the same trade Evolution made with its own Instant Super Sic Bo spin-off, which strips the betting window down further still.

Within ICONIC21’s own catalogue, Gravity Sic Bo is one entry in a series that started with Gravity Blackjack and Gravity Roulette in 2022 and has since expanded to Gravity Auto Roulette, Gravity Plinko, and Gravity Wheel. There’s no sequel or enhanced version of Gravity Sic Bo specifically — no Megaways-style variant, no “Instant” fast-play spin-off the way Evolution built Instant Super Sic Bo on top of its original. That’s not a criticism so much as a fact worth stating plainly: this is a single-format release, not part of an evolving line the way the slot side of the industry usually works.

There’s no buy-bonus mechanic here, because Sic Bo doesn’t have a bonus round to buy into — the entire game is the base game, every round. There’s no progressive jackpot attached to Gravity Sic Bo either, which puts it behind Evolution’s own Grand Bonus Baccarat (a game ICONIC21 itself points to as a “good alternative” in its own marketing, tellingly) and behind any Sic Bo variant that ties into a network jackpot pool, none of which currently exist in this category as far as available data shows.

So who is this actually for? It’s a recreational, session-based game — fast rounds, wide bet menu, high theoretical ceiling on side bets — rather than a high-roller vehicle. The $0.20 floor (confirmed across every source) makes it accessible regardless of which upper limit is accurate, and the automatic shaker keeps rounds moving faster than a hand-thrown table. It is not a game built for anyone trying to grind Small/Big at scale for a low house edge; the multiplier layer adds nothing there, and you’d be better served by a straight Sic Bo table with no multiplier gimmick at all if that’s your approach.

There’s a bankroll question worth answering directly, because it’s the one most players skip. A specific-triple bet at $0.20 costs almost nothing to place, but the 0.46% hit rate means you’re realistically funding dozens of losing rounds for every one that lands — and even then, only a fraction of those wins will carry a multiplier worth the wait. That’s not a flaw specific to Gravity Sic Bo; it’s the arithmetic of every triple bet on every Sic Bo table that has ever existed. What the multiplier layer does is raise the ceiling on the rare win, not shorten the losing streaks that fund it. Anyone sitting down expecting the x1000 headline to show up on a normal session timeline is working from the same misunderstanding that makes progressive slots feel more winnable than they are.

It’s also worth being clear about what this game doesn’t offer, since ICONIC21’s own marketing leans on the multiplier language without always spelling out the absence. There’s no session history tool built into the multiplier logic itself — the last-12-rolls display common to Sic Bo tables shows outcomes, not which positions carried multipliers historically, so there’s no way to spot a pattern even if one existed (and with an RNG-driven assignment, one shouldn’t). There’s no auto-play with loss limits specific to this table beyond whatever the operator’s platform provides generally, and there’s no dedicated responsible-gambling messaging built into the Gravity Sic Bo interface itself — that sits with the operator, as it does for most live-dealer titles, but it’s a gap worth knowing about before a long session on a table this fast-paced.

Verdict: play it for the variance, not for an edge that doesn’t exist

Gravity Sic Bo is a competently built entry in a format ICONIC21 didn’t invent and doesn’t meaningfully improve on. The x1000 ceiling and 36-multiplier spread match what Evolution, Ezugi, and Pragmatic Play already offer, and the base Sic Bo paytable underneath it is the same one you’d find on any operator’s table. The number that actually limits this game isn’t the multiplier cap — it’s the unresolved RTP figure on Any Triple and the unconfirmed upper betting limit, both of which should be nailed down by ICONIC21 or its distributing casinos before this gets recommended without caveats.

Play it if you want fast, low-friction dice rounds with occasional big multiplier hits and you’re not trying to optimise for the lowest possible house edge — Small and Big bets here perform identically to every other Sic Bo table you’ll find, multiplier or not, so there’s no cost to treating this as a variance play on the side bets. Skip it if you specifically want the largest base multipliers in the category (Playtech’s Sic Bo Deluxe is the better-documented option there) or if an unverified RTP claim on a headline bet type is a dealbreaker for you. Either way: confirm the betting limits on your operator’s table before you sit down, because the two published figures for this game are $25 apart at the low end and nowhere close to matching at the top.
