A crash game is a casino game where a multiplier climbs from 1.00x and can stop at any moment. Cash out before the crash and your stake is multiplied by the figure on screen; wait too long and the bet is lost. At ChampBet, the main crash games are Aviator by Spribe, Spaceman by Pragmatic Play, Avi by PopOK Gaming, Big Bass Crash by Pragmatic Play and Aviamasters by BGaming. This guide compares how each round works, what makes each game different and the RTP each provider publishes.

What is a crash game?

A crash game is a fast casino game built around one rising multiplier. Each round has a short betting window, then the multiplier climbs while a plane, astronaut or fisherman moves across the screen. You decide when to cash out. The crash point is random and set before the round starts, so every round is a fresh decision with no memory of the last.

A typical round runs like this:

  1. Bet. During the countdown, set your stake and press Bet.
  2. Climb. The round starts and the multiplier rises: 1.20x, 1.80x, 3.50x and on.
  3. Cash out. Tap Cash Out, or let auto cash out do it at your target. A ₦1,000 bet cashed out at 2.50x returns ₦2,500.
  4. Crash. The round ends at its crash point. Any bet still running is lost.

How crash games differ from slots

On a slot you press spin and wait for the reels. In a crash game you make the key decision mid-round: when to leave. Rounds are shared, so you see other players’ bets and cash-outs live, and most games add chat and leaderboards. The maths still favours the house over time, as with every casino game, which is why each game has an RTP. Our guide to what RTP means explains the figure.

Crash games at a glance

Crash games at a glance: Aviator, Spaceman, Avi, Big Bass Crash and Aviamasters with how each round works

Game Provider What you watch Stand-out feature Published RTP
Aviator Spribe A plane taking off Two bets per round, provably fair results 97%
Spaceman Pragmatic Play An astronaut flying past planets 50% auto cash out 95%
Avi PopOK Gaming A plane climbing Two bet options, Midweek Crash Crown free bets 96%
Big Bass Crash Pragmatic Play A fisherman chasing his catch Cash out 50%, let the rest ride 95.50%
Aviamasters BGaming A plane collecting multipliers No cash-out button: the plane must land on a ship 97%

Each RTP is the figure the provider lists on its official game page. The version you play may show its own figure in the game’s info panel, so check there too. A higher RTP means a smaller house edge over a very long run, not a better chance in tonight’s session.

Aviator (Spribe)

Aviator is the game that made crash games famous. A plane takes off, the multiplier climbs, and you cash out before it flies away. You get two bet panels per round, each with its own stake, auto bet and auto cash out. Results are provably fair: each round is built from a server seed and the first three players’ client seeds, and you can verify any round from its history. Spribe lists the RTP at 97% on its official Aviator page.

For the full walkthrough, read how to play Aviator. If someone is trying to sell you Aviator signals, read the truth about Aviator predictors first.

What is the Spaceman game?

Spaceman is a crash game by Pragmatic Play. You place a bet, an astronaut soars into space past planets, and a win multiplier rises on screen. Press cash out before he stops to apply the multiplier to your bet. If he stops first, the bet is lost. Pragmatic Play lists an RTP of 95% on its Spaceman game page.

Spaceman’s signature is the 50% auto cash out. Alongside a normal auto cash out target, you can set a separate target where half the bet is cashed out while the other half keeps flying. The game also shows statistics, leaderboards and a detailed history. History describes the past only: each round is independent.

How a 50% cash out plays out (example)

Step What happens Total back
Stake ₦1,000 bet ₦0
50% cash out at 2.00x ₦500 × 2.00 = ₦1,000 ₦1,000
Rest cashed out at 4.00x ₦500 × 4.00 = ₦2,000 ₦3,000
Or the crash comes first The remaining ₦500 is lost ₦1,000

Half cash out does not change the house edge. It changes the shape of your results: smaller top wins, fewer total losses. Play it from the Spaceman game page on ChampBet.

Avi (PopOK Gaming)

Avi is PopOK Gaming’s plane-themed crash game. You set your wager, watch the multiplier rise as the plane climbs, and cash out at any time to collect your stake times the current multiplier. If the plane crashes first, the bet is lost. PopOK lists two bet options, auto cash out, a top multiplier of x10,000 and an RTP of 96% on its Avi game page.

Avi matters at ChampBet because it is the game behind the Midweek Crash Crown free bets, covered below. Open it from the Avi game page.

Big Bass Crash (Pragmatic Play)

Big Bass Crash takes the fisherman from Pragmatic Play’s Big Bass slot series and puts him in a crash game. The multiplier rises as he heads out to catch as many bass as possible, and you cash out before he loses his net. Like Spaceman, it has a Cashout 50% option to secure half your bet and send the rest after a bigger multiplier. Live leaderboards and multiplayer chat keep it social. Pragmatic Play lists its RTP at 95.50% on the official game page.

Find it on the Big Bass Crash game page.

Aviamasters (BGaming)

Aviamasters plays differently from the others because there is no cash-out button. You set your bet and press play, and the aircraft flies a random path over the sea. Along the way it collects multipliers (+1, +2, +5, +10 and x2 to x5) that grow a round balance shown above the plane, while rockets cut that balance in half. If the plane lands on the aircraft carrier, the round balance is paid. If it lands in the water, the round is lost.

BGaming’s Aviamasters page lists an RTP of 97%, low volatility and a top multiplier of x250. You can watch at four speeds and use autoplay with stop conditions. Play it from the Aviamasters game page.

Which crash game should you play?

No crash game is “best” for winning, because every result is random. Each one suits a different style:

  • You want to verify results: Aviator, with provably fair checks on every round.
  • You like securing part of a bet: Spaceman or Big Bass Crash, with their 50% cash out.
  • You want free bets from your sports betting: Avi, through Midweek Crash Crown.
  • You dislike timing pressure: Aviamasters, where the flight plays out on its own.

Whichever you pick, start at a small stake and learn the controls before you raise it.

Smart habits for crash games

  • Budget first. Decide your session amount before you open a game.
  • Set auto cash out. Pick the target before the round, not while the multiplier climbs.
  • Keep stakes flat. Raising stakes to chase losses empties a budget fast.
  • Watch the clock. Rounds take seconds, so an hour disappears quickly.

Of the five main crash games at ChampBet, Aviator and Aviamasters list 97% on their providers' pages, Avi 96%, Big Bass Crash 95.50% and Spaceman 95%. RTP is a long-run average over a huge number of rounds, so it does not predict any single session.
