Best Ten Third-Party Crash-Like Games
As we have said countless times before, dice is the game that paved the way for crypto gambling. It was the premium Bitcoin gaming choice for years, dominating the digital coin betting arena with only one real competitor to its name, crash. Now, for the few readers who do not know what crash gambling is. Here is a short explanation. It is a provably fair game that has been around for almost a decade and whose gameplay entails setting a stake size and watching a multiplier grow until it randomly stops. When it does, if a gambler has opted out of the active round before this occurrence, he claims that multiplier at the time of his exit, with it getting applied to his bet. And if he has not, he loses his wager.
In most cases, the multiplier in play increases, utilizing a plane/rocket animation as a visual representation. It is this object that can crash at any moment. Thus, the name of the game, as that is the moment signaling the end of the gaming round. The house edge in most of these games is around 1%. And it should get noted that essentially all proprietary titles from this genre are virtually identical. They have the same rules and interface.
That said, over the past few years, as slot providers have gotten the option to move their catalogs of products onto crypto gaming sites, most have explored developing games that cater to coin-gambling fanatics. That includes creating crash-like choices. These implement the same recognizable rudimentary gameplay that their provably fair counterparts are famous for, except they boast higher-end graphics. Below, we look at what we believe are the ten best picks from this category in no particular order.
Spaceman
Pragmatic Play stunned us in March of last year (2022) with the release of Spaceman, a crash-inspired game with a max exposure of x5,000 and a betting range that moves from $1 to $100. The game has a 50% cashout option and a default RTP of 96.5%, which can vary from operator to operator.
Without question, Spaceman is the most visually-stimulating crash gambling choice at online casinos. Though, it is not one that we would recommend playing because its win probability is higher than most proprietary options.
Aviator
We mentioned the Ukraine-based provider Spribe in a previous article. They have a partnership deal with Relax Gaming and have made massive headway in this industry thanks to their swarm of provably fair-type products. Aviator is the crown jewel of this Spribe batch, and it gets tied into various promotions at multiple sites.
The stand-out features of this game are its in-game chat, live leaderboard stats, live bet coefficients, and Aviarace tournaments. Its RTP stands at 97%, implementing the same betting range as Spaceman.
Space XY Crash
BGaming is another company we have talked about before, and their XY series of titles has made quite a splash in the online gambling landscape, particularly their Mines games. Space XY Crash has a Spaceman vibe because it has a similar-looking protagonist and showed up online around the same time as Pragmatic Play’s creation.
Space XY Crash features a retro feel with a synth soundtrack and a max exposure of x10,000 on an alleged max bet of $1,000, which we find stunning. Nevertheless, we are unsure that all casinos allow this type of wagering action on this product.
Jet X
Smartsoft Gaming calls Jet X an innovative arcade slot. We guess that is one way to describe the crash mechanic to sector newbies. Yet, we must point out that this game’s visual style is super reminiscent of many late-1980s and early-1990s arcade machines, accepting bets as low as $0.1 and ones as high as $600.
Again, the RTP here is 97%, and there is not much else to say about Jet X, aside from the fact that it also has a progressive jackpot called the Galaxy one, which can get won only with stake sizes above $1.
Magnify Man
Magnify Man is a crash choice we rarely hear discussed. It has a Superman-style main character that performs a dash before soaring to the sky, one fist up. It is a Fugaso release that appeared on the Web in February of this year (2023) and has seemingly garnered zero attention from everyone.
Fugaso gets best known as a creator of high-quality RNG table games, and they have decided to add a max prize of x10,000 one’s stake in Magnify Man, which accepts wagers up to $100.
Balloon
Here is another Smartsoft Gaming crash-themed product. We quite like this one, as it offers a different take on an established concept. You have a balloon with a stake value on it and a hand icon on the right of it. Pressing and holding this icon inflates the balloon and its value. Releasing the hand button before the balloon bursts means that you can claim the current value. If the balloon explodes before you unleash the held button, you lose your bet, simple enough.
The graphics here are pleasant, and the betting range is low, from $0.2 to $10. Moreover, the RTP of this game is 96%, making its house edge bigger than most of the above-listed titles.
Balloon Run
Spinmatic Entertainment is a developer we do not think we have ever talked about. They first set up shop in Turkey a decade ago but moved to Malta in 2017. Their bread and butter are reel-spinners, with slots like Plata o Plomo and Calico Jack getting hailed by gamblers as the best Spinmatic has to offer.
Balloon Run hit online casinos in January 2022, looking very much like Aviator, presenting a max win of x1,000 on a maximum bet of $1,000 with an RTP of 95%.
Skyliner
Skyliner can get called Aviator-lite from Gaming Corps. It goes for an art-deco 1920s aesthetic with a gold and black color palette.
The RTP in play here is 97.37%, but it can differ from site to site, and the most one can wager on this title is $100 per round.
To Mars & Beyond
To Mars and Beyond is the first Gaming Corps crash game, debuting six months before Skyliner. Its RTP is 97.5% by default, featuring the same max exposure as its successor of x10,000.
Though, the presentation here is much more engaging, with a starship on Mars growing the multiplier. Note if you win in a round, a Multiplier Boost can enhance your current multiplier by an arbitrary percentage, and there is a Free Bet alternative reward.
Cash It
We close off the list with Cash It from Playtech Origins, a pick that likely none of our readers knows about. First, what is Playtech Origins, and how does it differ from Playtech? Well, this is a studio that has created some of Playtech’s most popular branded reel spinners and is responsible for all entries in the Age of the Gods series.
For this recent release, they have opted to make a rudimentary crash product with simple green graphics that lists a top win of x5,000. There is nothing overly interesting about this game. Its house edge is 4.1%, or in other words, it has an RTP of 95.99%, and we have seen little to no press about this title, coming across it on only a few platforms that have chosen to host it. That will likely change shortly.
