Low-volatility games tend to distribute returns in smaller, more frequent amounts. They still have a house edge and can increase total exposure by keeping a session going.
Smoother balance movement is a pacing preference. It should not be confused with low financial risk, especially when rapid spins and frequent partial returns reduce the feeling of loss.
