Summer Showcase
Having at one stage been the preserve of the crypto ecosystem, crash games have exploded onto online casinos. The concept of crash games involves predicting when an in-game event will 'crash' and end, with higher risks leading to potentially greater rewards. One of the chief beneficiaries thus far has been Spribe, a Georgian iGaming company whose flagship crash title Aviator has shook up the industry. Without needing to put it simply, Aviator is a game where players determine their winnings watching the flight of an aircraft with an increasing multiplier the longer it stays airborne.
Crash games gives players decisions to make, and almost all iGaming titles don't give players meaningful and impactful decisions. Decision-making is fun and there is a growing group comprising of predominantly younger players who want more control over their betting experiences. With every second that passes there’s more at stake. It is so easy to win small on crash games as the RTP tends to be higher that your typical slot (the RTP of Aviator is among the highest in the online gaming industry at 97 per cent), but most players aren't satisfied with a small win. They will continue to push it to the limit. Really, it's a game of greed.
Another driver of the soaring popularity is that crash titles are typically a single bet game. They provide fewer mental distractions, offering a streamlined 'play now' game experience without an education barrier. If you asked 100 random 18-30 year olds, I'd be surprised if 10 can explain how slot paylines and expanding wilds work. The provably fair technology employed by crash games for generating outcomes is comfortable territory for younger generations familiar with the workings of crypto.
As you'll read in the following pages, there are several developers queuing up to join the crash party and who can blame them? It's a simple bet.
