Crash casino: how crash games work

A crash game is a single round with one decision. A multiplier starts at 1.00 and climbs until it stops at a random moment, and you win only if you cash out before it does. Roobet’s version, Crash, is one of 12 in-house games it lists. The operator publishes the rules and the bet limits but not the RTP, the house edge or the top multiplier, so no figure for how much a player loses on average can be quoted from its documents.

How a round works

The Help Center describes it plainly: a rocket rises to a random multiplier, and you win by cashing out before it crashes. In its words, the higher you go, the riskier it is. In practice a round has three parts:

  1. You place a bet before the round starts.
  2. The multiplier climbs. If you cash out, your bet is multiplied by the number on screen at that moment.
  3. If the round crashes before you cash out, the bet is lost. The lowest possible outcome is 1.00, and results are rounded down to the cent.

You can cash out by hand or set an automatic target, which the game calls Auto Cashout. Details on the bet panel and the settings are on the Roobet Crash page.

What decides the result

The crash point is random. Roobet describes its in-house games as provably fair, and the /fair section of its site gives instructions, game by game, for checking how a result was generated and for verifying recent bets. It is the operator’s own tool and using it is up to you. Each round is independent of the last, and the strip of recent multipliers on screen is a record, not a signal. We look at what that means for betting in crash strategy.

Crash and similar games at Roobet

Crash sits among 12 house games: Crash, Roulette, Mines, Dice, Towers, Plinko, Mission Uncrossable, Coinflip, Slide, Limbo, Wheel and Hilo. Slide is the closest relative of crash on the list, since you pick a target multiplier in advance and the payout is your bet times that target, while a result below the target loses the bet. We have not checked which third-party crash titles the lobby carries, so this page does not list any.

Limits and demo play

From the game policy: the minimum bet on the originals is $0.01, and for Crash the maximum bet is $20,000 and the maximum win $500,000. A bet below $0.01 in Crash enters demo mode, and the screen says that Auto Cashout is disabled in demo mode.

What to know before you bet

Crash depends on your connection to Roobet, and a late click at the crash point can lose a round. If you use an automatic mode, the terms make you fully responsible for every bet it places. Decide how much you can lose before you start, and see the responsible gambling page if the game stops being entertainment. To play with money, read how sign-up works and what the payments page covers.

Frequently asked questions

What is a crash casino game?
A round in which a multiplier climbs from 1.00 and stops at a random moment. You win your bet times the multiplier if you cash out before it stops, and you lose the bet if you do not.
Does Roobet publish the RTP of Crash?
Not in the documents we read. The Help Center article on house games gives the rules but no RTP, house edge or top multiplier for Crash.
Can I try Crash without money?
Yes. Crash has a Play Demo button under the bet field, and a bet below $0.01 is treated as demo play.
