How to Play Crazy Time: A Step-by-Step Guide

Crazy Time might seem chaotic the first time you step into the live casino room. But after 1 or 2 playthroughs, you’ll see that the game is extremely simple and exciting. Here’s a little overview to guide you through the game:

1. Pick 1 of the 4 betting numbers or 1 of the 4 bonus games
2. Wait for the wheel to land on your bet
3. Select your target in the player-choice bonus rounds 
4. Hunt the big multipliers by switching strategies 

Game Rules and Betting Options

Filmed in a bright, colourful studio, Crazy Time features a giant spinning wheel, a bonus wheel on top, and 4 bonus boards scattered around the room, and is played in multiple phases. At the start of each round, you pick one of the 4 betting options: 1, 2, 5, and 10 value bets or one of the 4 Bonuses: Cash Hunt, Coin Flip, Pachinko, or Crazy Time. After the bets are placed, the Top Slot starts the game. This is an extra slot with two screens that reward potential multipliers.

The host then spins the wheel. If it lands on your bet value, you get an instant payout. If the wheel lands on a bonus you picked, you are transferred to one of the bonus boards instead. Here, 2 bonuses are played automatically through the dealer, while in the other 2, you have a say in the outcome yourself.

Special Features

Crazy Time is a largely familiar game with a well-known playstyle. Evolution's unique twist comes with the 4 Bonus Rounds. Each one is activated if the wheel lands on the bonus slot after you’ve picked that specific bonus as your betting option.

Cash Hunt

In the Cash Hunt bonus round, you are taken to a board of 108 random multipliers. All of them are covered by symbols, hiding their true value and are shuffled. You are given a short time to aim the cannon at the symbols you believe hide the biggest multiplier. After the timer runs out, the values are uncovered, and you are awarded the one you picked.

Coin Flip

The Coin Flip bonus takes you to an ATM-like machine with a large screen. On the screen, a Coin with 2 sides—red and blue—is shown. Each side has a multiplier, one higher than the other. The dealer flips the coin, and your prize is the initial bet times the value on the winning coin's side.

Pachinko

Pachinko is a simple bonus round that follows the standard Pachinko outline with multiple pegs and multiplier values at the bottom. The host drops a puck down the pegs, and you get the reward it lands on. The puck can also land on a double, doubling all multiplier values and granting you an extra drop for free to determine the prize.

Crazy Time

Triggering the Crazy Time bonus takes you through a staged red door into the secret magic world of this round. The new room features a huge wheel and looks straight from an Alice in Wonderland story. Your task here is to pick a Flapper - Green, Blue, or Yellow, each with different specials. The host will then spin the wheel by pressing a red button, and you will grab the value of the slot it lands on. Note that this bonus round has way higher payouts than the standard wheel, so use it wisely.
