While I cannot say that I know for a fact that the Gold Coast kiosk games are based on your gambling results at their casino, I have fairly strong evidence that it is true.
In late January of 2016 I requested my win/loss statement from Gold Coast (GC). I was very surprised to see that this statement showed a substantial 5-figure loss amount. I doubt that I played more than 5K in action at the GC in early 2015. In Feb and March of 2016, GC had promotions where the player earns 10 points and then gets a kiosk swipe. I played those promotions for my and my spouse's cards. I twice received swipes for 400,000 points, one for 100,000 and one for 50,000 plus some smaller ones. My wife received 2,000 points for every swipe.
I gave GC no play and the value of the swipes tapered off until I was only getting slightly better results than my spouse.
One sample is not overwhelming evidence. I believe the odds against getting such phenomenal swipes, and the pattern of declining value certainly makes my conclusion seem probable.
The harder I work, the luckier I am!
It's bad luck to be superstitious.

As a rule of thumb, if the game doesn't show what you would have got if you had picked another symbol then the game is probably not random. On the other hand it could be random in the same way that a slot machine is random with the better prizes coming up much less often.

Does anyone know if these kiosk games are under Gaming Control Board
regulations? Do they have to be random? Why do I always select the lowest
value or prize?
