The fastest-growing casino game category in NZ — Aviator, Spaceman, JetX and more. How crash games work, the 97% RTP explained, Provably Fair verification, and which NZ casinos have the best crash game selection.
1
Place your bet
Bet NZ$0.10–100+ before the round starts. You can place two simultaneous bets in Aviator.
2
Multiplier rises
A multiplier starts at 1× and rises — slowly at first, then faster. It can crash at any time.
3
Cash out
Tap Cash Out before the crash to lock in multiplier × bet. Timing is everything.
4
Crash
The game crashes at a random point. Anyone who hasn't cashed out loses their bet.

A crash game starts a multiplier rising from 1× upward — it can crash at any point, randomly. You cash out before the crash to lock in the multiplier × your bet. If the crash happens before you cash out, you lose your bet. Aviator (Spribe) is the most popular crash game globally; others include JetX, Spaceman (Pragmatic Play), Crash X, and Mines. The defining feature: you choose when to exit, creating real-time decision pressure.
Aviator's RTP is 97%, meaning the house edge is 3%. This is better than most slot machines (4–6% house edge) but worse than blackjack (0.5%) or baccarat (1.06%). The 97% RTP applies to the aggregate of all rounds — individual session variance can be extreme due to the crash mechanic. Aviator also supports auto-cashout at a preset multiplier, which removes emotional decision-making from play.
No. All legitimate crash games use a Provably Fair algorithm — the crash point is determined by a cryptographic hash before the round begins and can be independently verified after. No pattern, strategy or timing system can predict the crash point. Auto-cashout at a fixed multiplier (e.g. 1.5× or 2×) is the only way to remove guesswork — you will win less per hit but more consistently.
No strategy eliminates the house edge in crash games, but these approaches manage risk: Low multiplier strategy — auto-cashout at 1.2–1.5× wins ~80% of rounds but each win is small; expected value is negative but variance is low. High multiplier strategy — wait for 10×+ exits rarely but with big payouts; high risk, same negative EV. Martingale-style doubling in crash games is particularly dangerous — a long losing streak (rare but possible) can wipe a bankroll quickly. Set a session limit and stick to it.
Provably Fair is a cryptographic verification system used by Aviator and other crash games. Before each round, the server generates a random seed and publishes a hashed version. The crash point is calculated from this seed. After the round, the unhashed seed is revealed so players can independently verify the crash point was not manipulated. This is a higher standard of transparency than standard RNG certification — you can verify each round yourself rather than trusting a third-party audit.
Yes. Aviator is available at Ice Casino, V.Vegas, FastPay Casino, BitStarz, and Cashy. Spaceman (Pragmatic Play) is available wherever Pragmatic Play games are offered. JetX and Crash X are available at select NZ casinos. Minimum bets are typically NZ$0.10–1 per round. All crash games at licensed NZ casinos use certified RNG or Provably Fair algorithms.
Aviator (Spribe) and Spaceman (Pragmatic Play) are both crash games with near-identical mechanics — rising multiplier, cash out before crash. Differences: Aviator uses a Provably Fair system; Spaceman uses Pragmatic's certified RNG. Spaceman is available at more NZ casinos (wherever Pragmatic Play is offered). Both have 97% RTP. Aviator has a social/multiplayer chat element. The gameplay experience is essentially the same.
