This week, several US sweepstakes casinos launched Crash Live, a live-dealer crash game from ICONIC21 with all the features that make for excellent gameplay. That includes, live presenters, auto play, and the ups and downs that come with crash games.
Few of the games offered through online casinos are as thrilling (and heartbreaking) as crash games. With every passing moment, players must decide whether to claim their winnings or leave everything on the line in the hopes of an even bigger prize. The new game takes that experience to a new emotional level with the addition of human interaction. It is available at:
How crash games work
Crash games are a simple concept that goes back about a decade.
To play, you just do the following:
- Place a bet
- Watch a multiplier increase
- Cash out before the multiplier stops (crashes)
In some cases, the multiplier is an object, like a plane or rocket. If you cash out before the plane or rocket crashes to the ground you win.
Crash games were born in the cryptocurrency space and, over time, have extended to online casino gaming. DraftKings was the first big name to bring crash games to the US when it debuted DraftKings Rocket in 2021.
Crash Live provides unique experience
While DraftKings capitalized on crash games first, ICONIC21 has taken crash games to another level with Crash Live. For context, DraftKings Rocket is an animated game with simple graphics. ICONIC21 has moved far beyond the animated approach, using live hosts to run the game from a studio. The game has four main aspects to it:
Wager
Players can find their wagering tools at the bottom of the screen. Bet options can range from 10 cents to $250, and players can choose an auto-cash-out option that allows them to cash out when the multiplier reaches a certain level. For example, you could choose to automatically cash out when the multiplier hits 1.7. If you don’t choose an auto-cash-out amount, then you can cash out with the click of a button.
Multiplier
Found in the middle of the game screen, the multiplier is the heart of the action. Once all bets have been placed, a countdown begins. When the countdown hits zero, the multiplier starts to climb from 1.00x, racing upward much like a stopwatch. At some point, the multiplier stops, bets are paid, and a new round of wagering begins.
Leaderboard
Above the multiplier is a leaderboard that shows the biggest wins of the day expressed as a multiplier amount. The three biggest wins are featured at the top of the leaderboard
Host
The final aspect of ICONIC21’s Crash Live is the host. The host carries on a conversation with players, highlighting the day’s big wins, noting how much players are betting, and calling out specific winners by their screen names. Over the course of the day, hosts switch in and out.
Why Crash Live is worth your time
Crash Live provides all the excitement of a standard crash game with the added bonus of a live host.
The rules of the game are simple. The layout is easy to understand, and the leaderboard adds an element of competition to the game.
For those who love crash games, Crash Live is must-play. If you haven’t tried a crash game, consider an animated option like DraftKings Rocket first. Once you’ve got the basics down, you should have a pretty easy time playing Crash Live.
