How Crash Games Work
Every crash game follows the same core mechanic: a multiplier starts at 1.00x and rises. It can crash at any moment, sometimes at 1.01x, sometimes above 100x. You decide when to cash out. If you cash out at 3.00x on a R10 bet, you receive R30. If the game crashes before you press the button, you lose your stake.
Most crash games use a provably fair algorithm, meaning you can verify after each round that the outcome was not manipulated. This transparency is one reason crash games have become so popular.
