Gonzo's Quest by NetEnt: headline RTP 95.97%, Medium/High volatility, max win x3 750.
An RTP of 95.97% means a house edge of 4.03% — the expected cost is 4.03 units per 100 staked over the long run, whatever a single session does.
Gonzo's Quest is a medium/high volatility game: the return arrives in rare, large payouts, so long dry spells are normal rather than a malfunction. Size stakes for the drought, not the average.
The advertised ceiling is x3 750. Max win figures describe the tail of the distribution, not a realistic target: on most games with a ceiling this high the probability per spin is below one in a million.
Against our catalogue the number is below the median of 96.13%, higher than 27% of the games whose RTP we verified. That comparison matters more than the raw figure, because "96%" only sounds generous next to nothing.
Released 2013-11-11. Release date matters for RTP: newer titles are more likely to ship with several configurable builds, which is what lets two casinos price the same game differently.
Stakes run from 0.2 to 50 per spin on a 5-3 layout with 20 betways.

Yes. Gonzo's Quest has a free demo with the same mathematics as the real-money version — the only thing that changes is that the balance is not yours. A demo cannot tell you the RTP build a particular casino serves.
Gonzo's Quest is a NetEnt game, so the outcome is produced by the studio's certified RNG rather than by the casino, and it is not provably fair in the cryptographic sense — you cannot recompute a spin from a seed. What the casino does control is which RTP build it serves. That is the real variable, and it is measurable.
