About Crazy Balls
Released in November 2024, Crazy Balls is Evolution's most differentiated innovation of the year — a race game format that didn't previously exist anywhere else on the live casino market. Instead of the classic Money Wheel or card format, Crazy Balls offers a race between 8 balls in parallel tubes, in the style of a physical arcade machine. It's a throwback to 1980s-90s arcade game origins, reimagined as an HD live game show with modern mechanics.
The concept: 8 numbered balls (1-8) are placed at the top of a structure of 8 inclined parallel tubes. On the signal, the balls are released simultaneously and drop down the tubes — each ball moving at a random speed dictated by physical friction and pin obstacles. The first ball to reach the finish line is the winner. You place your bets before the round starts.
Available bets: Winner (bet on the winning ball, pays 4-7:1 depending on the ball, RTP 96.42%), Top 3 (bet on 3 balls finishing in the top 3, pays 0.3-1:1, RTP 95.80%), Top 4 (bet on 4 balls finishing in the top 4, pays 0.1-0.5:1, RTP 95.50%), Exacta (bet on the top 2 in exact order, pays 15-30:1 depending on the combination, variable RTP), Trifecta (top 3 in exact order, pays 50-100:1).
Evolution's signature mechanic: stackable multipliers on certain bets. Before each race, 1-3 balls are marked with multipliers ranging from x2 to x100. If a Multiplier ball finishes in the top 3, your win is multiplied. Several Multiplier balls finishing in the top 3 means the multipliers stack multiplicatively. Theoretical max of 20,000× via an exceptional stack (Trifecta + 3 stacked multipliers on the same balls). Ultra-rare probability, but the cap is reachable.
In terms of mathematical EV, RTP is 96.42% on Winner (the most stable, best expected value). Top 3 and Top 4 have slightly lower RTPs. Exotic side bets (Exacta, Trifecta) sit at 90-94% RTP — high payouts but low probabilities. Volatility is high on the exotic side bets, moderate on Winner.
A dedicated Evolution studio features a physical tube structure 4 metres tall, multi-cam HD coverage to follow each ball's run, and automatic slow-motion replays at the finish line. Energetic presenters work in race-commentator mode. Minimum stake €0.10 per bet, max €500. Available at top-rated online casinos featured on BetsRank's rankings. For game show fans who want something completely different from the classic Money Wheel format, Crazy Balls is the unique experience of the moment.
