Cash or Crash is a new tactical and entertaining live casino game show by Evolution, the same brand that introduced the popular Crazy Time, Lighting Roulette and other great online live games. Cash or Crash is fairly simple and features just one bet, with huge potential winnings for punters. Place a bet starting from R2, and watch as the machine draws different coloured balls that can mean the difference between going on a winning streak or losing. The game is now available at Hollywoodbets, Gbets, Betway and other South African bookmakers offering Evolution games, and in this guide we are going to take a closer look at the Cash or Crash game, as well as explain how it works.
How the Cash or Crash game works
Betting on cash or Crash starts from as little as R2 on most local bookmakers, there is only one betting option and you can only place your bets at the beginning of a round, not during gameplay. To place your bet first select your bet amount (between R2 – R250) and click the glowing circle to place the stake. To add more to your bet click the circle again, you can play up to a max of R25,000 each round.
At the start of the round a single ball is drawn from the blimp, if the ball is green then the game moves to the next level, and the draws continue as long as green balls are drawn, if a red ball is drawn then the round is over. The longer the draw progresses the higher the payout on offer, starting with 1.2 at level 1, 1.6 at level 2, 2.00 at level 3 and so on.
After each successful draw you can choose to take half your winnings, continue or cash out all your winnings, giving you more control over your stake. If you decide to take half the winnings then you will receive 50% of the winnings while keeping the other 50% for the next round. In the Cash or Crash game there are there are 19 Green balls, 1 Gold Ball and 8 Red Balls and 20 Levels, paying up to 18,000 to 50,000x your stake should all 19 Green Balls and 1 Gold Ball be drawn in a round.
If a golden ball is drawn during a round then it gives you protection against the next red ball. For example you get a golden ball on level 7, but then a red ball is drawn on level 8. The golden ball cancels out the red ball being drawn and the round continues. The protection remains active until a red ball is drawn, however it only protects against a single red ball.
Cash or Crash Paytable
The game has 20 levels or multipliers for each round, with level 1 paying 1.2x your stake, and level 20 paying 18,000 – 50,000x your stake. You can view the full table and levels below;
The return to player on Cash or Crash is a very respectable 94.51% – 99.59%.

Our thoughts on the Cash or Crash Game
The Cash or Crash game isn’t groundbreaking but it does provide some solid entertainment. The gameplay is quick and action packed, and the inclusion of the three choices; take half, continue or cash out adds a interesting dimension to the game. It’s tempting to go for those big streaks but it’s also a game that you can play conservatively should you wish.
Overall we think it’s a game worth checking out, and has some similarities to the popular Hollywoodbets Aviator game. Let us know in the comments below what your experience with Cash or Crash has been.
