Hacksaw Gaming has entered the crash-game market with Moneyplane, the studio’s first game in the category and the debut of its new Bail2Win™ format.
The idea is easy to understand. You place a bet before take-off, the plane starts climbing and the multiplier rises with it. You can cash out at any point while the plane is still in the air. Wait too long and the plane crashes, ending the round before you collect. For a different rhythm, WTF: What’s That Flying? asks you to choose each next step or cash out.
That basic mechanic will be familiar to anyone who has played a crash game before. What makes Moneyplane more interesting is that Hacksaw has built its own presentation and feature set around it rather than simply copying the usual rising graph.
The whole round is built around a paper plane climbing through the sky as the multiplier increases. Each flight is shared by participating players, so several people can be watching the same round while choosing their own cash-out points.
Players can also open multiple bet panels during the same round and use Auto Cash Out to choose a target multiplier in advance. Autoplay is available as well.
The maximum possible win is 10,000× the bet. Hacksaw says Moneyplane launches with five different RTP configurations ranging from 92% to 98%, meaning the exact theoretical return can vary depending on the version offered by a casino.
The bigger story is that Hacksaw is moving beyond the slots and instant-win games it is best known for. Moneyplane is not being presented as a one-off experiment either: the company says it is the first step in a broader plan for the Bail2Win™ format.
Crash games are already a well-established part of online casinos, so Moneyplane is entering a crowded category. The interesting question is whether Hacksaw’s visual style and approach to game design will be enough to make its version stand out.
