Evoplay is a Ukrainian-founded, Cyprus-headquartered studio that makes slots first and instant games second. It has exactly one crash game, Avia Rush (April 2025, 96% RTP), plus a dozen instant titles built around penalties, road crossings, Plinko boards and target multipliers. Its games run on a lab-certified RNG, not provably fair cryptography, and it holds no UK licence. This page covers what Evoplay actually makes, at what RTP, and clears up the Crash Duel X mix-up.

🏢 Who Evoplay is
Evoplay (it dropped the “Entertainment” from its trading name a few years ago, though the legal entities still carry it) started in 2017 as a Kyiv slot studio with a taste for 3D and VR gimmicks. Its early marketing claim was the “first 3D/VR slots for the mass market”. Ivan Kravchuk, who had been Creative Director from the first day, took over as CEO in January 2020 and still holds the job. The company’s own numbers, as of its 2025 corporate page, are “200+” staff, “8M+” monthly players, 45-plus new games shipped in 2025 and 79 branded titles built for individual operators.
Where it is based depends on which year’s press release you read. Older profiles say “headquarters in Kyiv and offices in Malta”. Current profiles, and the company’s own site, put the head office in Limassol, Cyprus, with a second office in Warsaw and the development centre still in Kyiv. That is the same relocation pattern most Ukrainian gaming studios followed after February 2022, and there is nothing unusual in it.
What matters for this site is that Evoplay is a slot studio that makes instant games on the side, not a crash specialist. Its portfolio is around 250 titles and the large majority are video slots. The instant range is a growing segment and the company has been shipping one or two instant titles a quarter through 2025, but if you compare it with Spribe, whose whole business is Aviator and a handful of mini-games, or SmartSoft Gaming, which built an entire “X” range around JetX, Evoplay is a generalist.
🔍 Ownership and the corporate trail
Evoplay is privately held and does not publish accounts. What is on the public record comes from three places: the licensing pages, the Ukrainian company database, and the company’s own press.
The licensing pages name at least three operating entities. “Evoplay Ltd” is the company approved by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario. “Play Evo Games Ltd” is the company named on the Malta Gaming Authority recognition notice and on the Romanian ONJN licence. “Evoplay Entertainment B.V.” is the Curacao company that holds the Curacao Gaming Control Board licence. That three-entity structure (a Cyprus or Malta holding, a Malta-facing licensee, a Curacao licensee) is standard for studios that sell into both regulated European markets and the grey market.
The Ukrainian entity, Evoplay Entertainment LLC (state code 44320571), was incorporated in Kyiv on 12 July 2021 with authorised capital of about 2.3 million hryvnia. According to the public extract, 98.3% of it is owned by Evoplay Ltd and 1.7% directly by Ivan Kravchuk, who is also listed as the ultimate beneficial owner through indirect controlling influence. In plain terms: the CEO appears to control the group, and the 2017 founding date refers to the business, not to this particular legal entity, which was set up four years later.
📝 For the record: We could not confirm who owns Evoplay Ltd itself, or in which jurisdiction it is incorporated (Cyprus is the obvious candidate given the Limassol head office, but the company does not say). A third-party profile estimates annual revenue at “around $4 million”, a figure we regard as too low for a 200-person studio and do not rely on. Any claim that Evoplay is part of a larger group, or has outside investors, is unsupported by anything we found.
🎮 The crash and instant-game catalogue, with RTPs
Every RTP below is the figure Evoplay prints on the game’s own page on its corporate site, checked in September 2026. Where a game has a range, the operator picks the setting. Max wins are the studio’s stated euro cap at maximum stake, so the “€/$” is Evoplay’s own currency convention converted for this site.
Avia Rush is the one title that belongs on a crash site. It is a conventional single-curve crash game: a space shuttle climbs, the multiplier climbs with it, and you cash out before it blows. It has two independent bet panels, auto-play, auto cash-out, a crash history strip, leaderboards and chat, which is the Aviator feature set copied faithfully. Evoplay’s page gives 96.00% RTP and a €/$750,000 max win; third-party coverage adds a 10,000x ceiling and a stake range of about €/$0.10 to €/$750, which we have not been able to confirm on Evoplay’s own page. One quirk reported by a demo reviewer is that the shuttle can crash at 0x, meaning an instant loss before the multiplier even reaches 1.00x. Most crash games start at 1.00x and cannot go lower.
Instant Soccer is worth a paragraph because it is not really a football game. You set a target multiplier, the game draws a random multiplier, and if the draw meets or beats your target you win at your target. That is Limbo with a goalkeeper animation, and at 96.34% it is the best-priced thing in the instant range. The “Chance of Winning” display, which shows the hit probability at each target, is a rare piece of candour and worth using.
Uncrossable Rush is Evoplay’s entry in the road-crossing category that Chicken Road made popular: a chicken, 24 lanes, four difficulty settings, cash out after any lane or keep going. At 96% it is two points worse than the InOut Games original at 98%, and half a point better than Chicken Road 2.0 at 95.5%. Plinko Blast is a standard 8-to-16-row Plinko at around 96%, which is three points worse than Stake’s 99% board.
🔍 Worth noting
Bomb Squad, Star Guardians and Rocket Stars, which some lists file under “Evoplay instant games”, are video slots. Adrenaline Rush is a skill-based racing game, and Evoplay’s “up to 97%” RTP for it depends on how well you drive, which is a different animal from a fixed-RTP crash game. If a review tells you Evoplay has “several crash games”, it is counting slots or racing games as crash. As of September 2026 there is one.
⚠️ The Crash Duel X mix-up
A meaningful share of searches for “Evoplay crash game” are people looking for Crash Duel X. Evoplay did not make it. Crash Duel X is a SmartSoft Gaming title released in December 2023, a Wild West crash game with a 96% RTP, a 5,000x main-bet ceiling and Sheriff and Bandit side bets on a tug-of-war. It sits in operator lobbies under SmartSoft, it appears on SmartSoft’s own games page as “Crash Duel”, and there is no version of it in Evoplay’s catalogue.
How the error spread is not hard to guess. Evoplay released Cricket Duel in early 2026, Evoplay is a well-known instant-game supplier, and search engines are happy to autocomplete “Evoplay” after “crash duel” once a few pages have paired the words. The rule on this site is to name the wrong claim and move on: SmartSoft makes Crash Duel X, Evoplay makes Avia Rush, and the two studios have no corporate connection.
“Evoplay has one crash game and it is called Avia Rush. Everything else with ‘Rush’ in the name is a road, a racetrack or a scratch card.”
🛡️ Fairness model: certified RNG, not provably fair
Evoplay’s games decide outcomes on the studio’s own servers using a random number generator that has been tested by outside laboratories. The company names BMM Testlabs, eCOGRA and Quinel as its RNG and game-maths certifiers, and it holds ISO/IEC 27001:2022 (information security) and ISO/IEC 27701:2019 (privacy) certificates. BMM issued the certification that let Evoplay into the Italian market in 2022. That is the same assurance model that regulated slot studios use, and it is what the MGA, ONJN, AGCO and DGOJ each require before a game can be offered under their rules.
It is not provably fair. None of Evoplay’s instant games, Avia Rush included, shows you a hashed result before the round or gives you a seed to check afterwards. You cannot verify a single Avia Rush round yourself; you can only rely on the lab certificate and the licence. Our guide to provably fair explained sets out the difference, and it is a real one: Aviator publishes a SHA-512 hash of the server seed before betting opens, Stake Crash uses HMAC-SHA256 with a bitcoin block salt, and either can be checked by anyone with a calculator. Evoplay offers nothing equivalent. If verifiability is your first filter, the studios on our best provably fair crash games list are where to look, and Evoplay is not on it.
💡 Key insight
Certified RNG and provably fair answer different questions. Certified RNG answers “was this game built to pay 96% over millions of rounds?” and a lab signs off on it once. Provably fair answers “was this specific round changed after I bet?” and you check it yourself every time. Evoplay gives you the first and not the second. That is acceptable under an MGA or ONJN licence; it just means the licence is doing the work, not the maths.
🎯 Licensing and regulation
Evoplay’s regulatory footprint is wider than most instant-game studios and narrower than the marketing implies. Its own responsible-gaming page lists the approvals below, each tied to a named entity, which is more transparency than SmartSoft or Turbo Games offer.
Three things to read out of that table. First, the Malta document is a recognition notice, which lets a supplier already licensed elsewhere in the EEA distribute to MGA operators; it is not the full MGA B2B critical-supply licence that Spribe and SmartSoft hold. Second, the Romanian licence is the one that puts Evoplay games on legal Romanian sites, and Romania is one of the few EU markets that has actively approved crash games. Third, the UK gap is real. Older profiles from 2022 say Evoplay was “working on obtaining licenses from both the UK Gambling Commission and the Malta Gaming Authority”. Four years on, the MGA part happened in reduced form and the UK part has not. Do not expect to find Avia Rush on a UK-licensed site.
Evoplay’s corporate page also cites market entries in Bulgaria, Croatia, Lithuania and Ireland and lottery channels in the United States and Azerbaijan. We could not find the underlying approvals for those, so treat them as claimed rather than confirmed. For what each licence type actually protects, and why a recognition notice is not a licence, see our crash game regulation guide.
🏆 Market position against Spribe, SmartSoft and Pragmatic Play
In the crash category specifically, Evoplay is a late entrant with one product. Spribe’s Aviator has been the category leader since 2019, holds UKGC and full MGA B2B licences, runs at 97% and is provably fair. SmartSoft has had JetX since 2018 and a dozen X-branded spin-offs, at 97% by default and operator-adjustable. Pragmatic Play came in with Spaceman in 2022 at 96.5% and used its distribution to put it on almost every lobby that carries Pragmatic slots. Avia Rush at 96% is the lowest RTP of the four flagship crash games and the only one without a distinctive mechanic (Spaceman’s half cash-out, Crash Duel X’s side bets, Aviator’s verifiable seed).
Where Evoplay is competitive is the broader instant-game shelf. Its penalty games have been on lobbies since 2020 and the Penalty Shoot-out series is, by the studio’s own account, its best-known instant product. The 2025 run of Hot Slice, Avia Rush, Instant Soccer, Uncrossable Rush, Plinko Blast and Scratch Match Deluxe was a deliberate push to cover every instant format the market currently buys, and at 95.65% to 96.34% they are priced in a narrow band a little below the 97% to 99% you get from crypto-native studios. For a full ranking of every crash and instant title we cover, the crash games list is the place to compare.
The bottom line: Evoplay is a legitimate, multi-licensed slot studio with a decent instant-game range and a single, average crash game. Avia Rush at 96% is a point worse than Aviator and JetX, is not provably fair, and is not available on UK-licensed sites. The instant titles worth a look are Instant Soccer (96.34%, and it tells you your odds) and Uncrossable Rush (96%, a competent Chicken Road clone). Nothing in the catalogue is called Crash Duel X. If you want the lowest price or verifiable rounds, this is not the studio; if you want a regulated-market crash game in Romania, Ontario or Spain, it is one of the few options.

❓ Frequently asked questions
Does Evoplay make a crash game?
Yes, one: Avia Rush, released in April 2025, with a 96% RTP (4% house edge), two bet panels, auto cash-out and a stated €/$750,000 max win. Its other “Rush” titles (Uncrossable Rush, Adrenaline Rush) are a road-crossing game and a racing game, not crash games.
Is Crash Duel X an Evoplay game?
No. Crash Duel X is made by SmartSoft Gaming, the JetX studio, and was released in December 2023. Evoplay has no game by that name. The attribution to Evoplay is an error that has spread through search suggestions and a few review sites.
What is the RTP of Evoplay games?
The instant range published on Evoplay’s own site runs from 95.65% (Penalty Shoot-out: Cup Mania) to 96.34% (Instant Soccer), with Avia Rush, Uncrossable Rush and the original Penalty Shoot-out at exactly 96.00%. That is a house edge of 3.66% to 4.35%. Evoplay slots are reported to sit slightly lower, around 94% to 96.5%.
Are Evoplay games provably fair?
No. Evoplay uses a server-side RNG certified by BMM Testlabs, eCOGRA and Quinel, which is the standard regulated-market model. It does not publish per-round hashes or accept player seeds, so you cannot verify an individual round yourself the way you can with Aviator or Stake Crash.
Is Evoplay licensed in the UK?
No. Evoplay is not on the UK Gambling Commission’s public list of licensees and its own licensing page does not claim a UK licence. Its approvals are Curacao, an MGA recognition notice, Romania ONJN, Ontario AGCO and Spain DGOJ, plus certifications for Italy, Brazil and Peru.
Who owns Evoplay?
Evoplay is privately held. The Ukrainian entity, Evoplay Entertainment LLC, is 98.3% owned by Evoplay Ltd and 1.7% by CEO Ivan Kravchuk, who is listed as ultimate beneficial owner. Who owns Evoplay Ltd itself is not public.
Where is Evoplay based?
The head office is in Limassol, Cyprus, with a second office in Warsaw and the development centre in Kyiv, where the company was founded in 2017. Earlier profiles listed Kyiv as the headquarters with an office in Malta.
