Is There a Trick or Cheat to Win?

No Known Trick or Cheat Exists

Ready

Waving

Taunting

Unfortunately, there is no tried-and-tested trick or cheat of winning every round of Rock, Paper, Scissors. While it was initially suspected that the hand gestures the robot makes before revealing its hand would hint at which hand it was going to use, it turned out that it had no effect on whatever hand it will use in the end.

Your chances of winning in this game are pretty rocky, so it's highly recommended that you use your game tickets on the Roulette instead.
