Lowest bet we saw: R1 a round at Interbet
Red Baron is a crash game from Evolution. A plane takes off, a multiplier rises, and each of up to three bets pays only if it is cashed out before the plane flies away. Evolution sets the maximum multiplier at 20,000x and gives an RTP of 97.00% for any bet. It runs in two variants, with a live video stream of a game host or without one.
RTP (return to player): the share of bets the game pays back over time, as Evolution publishes it.

Where Red Baron comes from
Evolution announced the launch of Red Baron on 12 November 2025, calling it its third crash game and saying it follows the studio's Stock Market and Race Track titles. Tiles with a casino's brand in the name are branded editions, separate games on this site, so read the rules of the tile you open.
How a Red Baron round works
A round has two phases. In the Betting phase a timer runs and you place chips on your bet spots, each tap adding the chip's value up to the table's maximum. When the timer expires, betting closes.
In the Flying phase the plane takes off and the multiplier rises. Each bet pays its stake times the multiplier when you cash it out, so R10 cashed out at 2.50x returns R25. You can cash out until the moment before the plane flies away, and any bet still in the air then is lost.
A random number generator decides when the plane flies away. Now and then it goes at once, at 1.00x, taking every bet on the round with it.
Up to three bets, Auto Cash Out and Autoplay
- Up to three independent bets. Evolution's game page allows up to three bets per round, and the rules at your table say how many that table takes. Each bet has its own spot, added or removed with the plus and minus buttons, and is cashed out separately. On a screen too small for all your spots, the extras are removed and their bets cashed out at once.
- Auto Cash Out on each bet. A toggle switches it on per bet, and you set the multiplier at which that bet cashes out by itself, so two bets in one flight can leave at different points. A cash-out pays 1.01 to 20,000 times the stake: the smallest on R10 returns R10.10.
- Autoplay needs Auto Cash Out. You start Autoplay after switching on Auto Cash Out for a bet, and it switches off if no bet has it on. Change the Auto Cash Out value mid-run and the game asks you to confirm, or Autoplay stops.
- Repeat and Double. Repeat places last round's bets again with their Auto Cash Out multipliers, and Double doubles all your bets, up to the maximum. Neither changes the odds.
Two variants: with the game host on video, or without
Evolution runs Red Baron in two variants to meet the needs of different markets and jurisdictions. Variant 1 has a live video stream of the game host, in a red uniform, and Variant 2 has none. Both follow one set of rules, with a random number generator ending each flight.
Evolution presents the real-time statistics, top wins and other players cashing out as the game's social element.
The 20,000x maximum and the table's payout limit
"The maximum multiplier is 20,000x", which is R200,000 on R10. A table can also carry a payout limit in money, and then the maximum payout is 20,000x or that amount, whichever is lower. The limit divided by your stake gives the multiplier where it bites, so a bigger stake meets it sooner. Payouts and the Bet Limits panel show your table's figures.
What ends the flight, and what the statistics are for
Evolution mentions no provably fair check, seed or hash: the rules rest on a random number generator deciding when the plane flies away.
The numbers on screen are a record, not a forecast: Top Wins for the last round and the last hour (only the last round on mobile), a live list of players cashing out (desktop only), and a lane of earlier rounds' final multipliers, newest on the left. A channel selling Red Baron signals claims to know a number the rules say is random.
Your phone, your connection and a disputed round
- Keep the game on screen while betting is open. Minimising the browser or opening another tab while betting time remains may count as leaving the game, and your bets are then declined for that round.
- Watch the latency counter. The game can show your connection's delay in milliseconds, in green, yellow or red. A slow or unstable connection can delay bets and cash-outs.
- If you drop out. Bets in play when you lose the connection after betting has closed stay valid and are settled without you. The History window shows the result.
- Malfunctions and complaints. A malfunction voids the round and its payouts, and bets are returned. Each round has a game number that reflects when it began, in GMT: note it before contacting support.

Red Baron FAQ
What is the maximum win in Red Baron?
A multiplier of 20,000x. A table can also have a payout limit in money, and the maximum payout is then 20,000x or that amount, whichever is lower.
What is Red Baron's RTP?
97.00% for any bet, by Evolution's help. Over a very large number of rounds the house keeps 3% of stakes, and one session can land far from it.
How many bets can I place in one Red Baron round?
Up to three, by Evolution's game page, and the rules at your table say how many that table takes. Each bet has its own stake, Auto Cash Out and cash-out.
What is the difference between the two Red Baron variants?
Variant 1 has a live video stream of the game host and Variant 2 does not. Both follow the same rules, and Evolution says they serve different markets and jurisdictions.
Can Red Baron be predicted?
No. A random number generator decides when the plane flies away, and the lane of past multipliers only records earlier rounds. Anyone selling Red Baron signals claims to know a number drawn at random.
