Crash game

The round is the same every time. A multiplier starts at one and rises; the player may collect at any moment; at some point the round ends and anybody still in loses the stake. There are no reels and no cards, which is why it reads as something other than a casino game to people who would not open a casino.

The published return is a property of the game rather than of the bookmaker. The best known title in this category licenses a single configuration, so a book cannot dial it down the way it can with a slot, where the same title ships at several settings and the operator picks one. That distinction is worth carrying because it is stated backwards almost everywhere.

What differs between books is not the game but everything around it: whether it is in the lobby at all, the minimum stake, whether crash rounds count towards clearing a bonus, and whether the operator runs a separate promotion on it. This index files whether it is present and leaves predictions alone, because a round that ends at random has no pattern to predict and the applications that claim otherwise are selling something.
