It is an exciting time whenever any new live casino game is released. However, when it is a title from Evolution, that excitement goes up a notch. Well, the leading live casino supplier has today revealed that Crazy Coin Flip is now live at the online casinos.

Crazy Coin Flip is a live 10 payline video slot that offers players the chance to trigger a Coin Flip bonus game. That bonus game comes straight from Evolution’s Crazy Time, a live gameshow that features that bonus round alongside 3 others. It is a live title with an RTP of 96.05%, a betting range of between 0.10 and 2,000, and classic symbols such as Bells, Cherries, and playing cards. However, while spinning in winning combinations is never a bad thing, your ultimate aim is to trigger the infamous Coin Flip bonus game.

We already knew that Crazy Coin Flip was coming as it was one of the games Evolution had revealed was on its way in 2022 via the Evolution’s Online Event back in February. Eyebrows were particularly raised, as this would become Evolution’s first live slot. Playtech have had success with live slots such as Buffalo Blitz Live and Age of the Gods: Storm of Gods, so it was only a matter of time before Evolution got in on the act as well.

This is a unique title, as you might expect from Evolution. The only other game where we can draw some similarities is Evolution’s Deal or No Deal and that is only because of the topping up round.

How to Play Crazy Coin Flip

Crazy Coin Flip is broken down into three stages. You must qualify first, before then topping up the two multipliers you could win and finally witnessing the result of the Coin Flip.

• Qualification

Initially, you just play the 5-reel, 3-row, and 10-fixed payline as if you were playing any other slot. As you spin the reels, you may pick up payouts from landing matching symbols across the paylines. However, just like in a video slot, your ultimate aim is to trigger the main bonus feature. You will do this when you land 3 of the ‘Crazy Coin Flip’ scatter symbols anywhere in view. Those symbols may or may not come with multipliers attached, which, if they do, means you will carry those multipliers into the bonus round.

If you want to improve your chances of triggering the Coin Flip feature, you have the choice of spinning in three different modes. Two of these are found in Starburst XXXtreme video slot that was developed by NetEnt, a slot developer owned by Evolution. You will also know of XXXtreme is Evolution’s recently released XXXtreme Lightning Roulette.

• Standard: The first is the standard mode that costs your chosen stake. In this default mode, there is no guarantee of scatter symbols landing on each spin.
• XXXtreme Spin: For a cost of 5x your current stake, this mode guarantees at least one scatter symbol for each spin and an increased chance of landing a multiplier.
• Super XXXtreme Spin: For two guaranteed scatter symbols and an even larger chance of landing multipliers, this mode costs 50x your stake.

If as it should be, getting in to the bonus round is your main priority, using the XXXtreme modes makes the best sense. However, make sure your bankroll is deep enough to handle this. The Super XXXtreme mode at the lowest stake of €/$0.10 will cost you €/$5 per spin. There is no guarantee you will trigger the bonus round in one or even a dozen spins.

The Top Up Round

Now that you have qualified for the Coin Flip, you’re taken to a new screen. Here, you can top up your red and blue multipliers. If you already won multipliers when triggering the bonus round, you have a head start here. For a set amount of time, you can spin the 3-reel and 3-row Top Up slot. The symbols on the reels are all blue or red coin multipliers. Whenever you land 3 symbols of the same colour on the middle row, those multipliers (between 1x and 50x) are applied to your current multiplier total for that coloured coin. How much you stake per spin will increase the size of the multipliers on the reels. Once the time runs out, the only thing left to do is watch the result of the Coin Flip, which will bring an additional multiplier of between 5x and 100x.

The Coin Flip Bonus Round

This is the only part of the game where all qualifying players will earn the same result. All the multipliers earned from the scatters and the Top Up Round are now calculated together. It is now time for the feature that you have been building up for.

First off, a global multiplier (for all players) is randomly generated for both the blue and red coins. Each coin could have a multiplier of between 5x and 100x. Then, the live host pulls a big lever to flip the coin and determine which of the blue or red multipliers you win. The winning Coin Flip multiplier is then added to the multiplier you have amassed for that particular coloured coin and you are paid out!
