Space XY Game Review

Space XY is one small step for BGaming, one giant step for slot-kind! Set to be widely released in early 2022, this atmospheric adventure allows players to launch a space rocket and travel to space. 

There are no reels to deal with, just two X and Y axes. It’s a crypto game and there’s 10,000x your stake up for grabs. You need to place your bets and jump off before the rocket explodes though, otherwise, you lose it all.  So, can you blast off and beat the clock before your bet burns? 

If you’ve played Aviator by Spribe, you will understand the basic gameplay. Instead of an aircraft, you have a rocket, but the concept of betting and cashing in your bets before it is destroyed remains the same. 

Click on ‘Fun’ to open up your betting panel and choose the amount you wish to bet. Then hit ‘Place Bet’ to bet on the next rocket launch. Once the flight begins, you can hit ‘Cash Out’ at any time, to secure your winnings. You can also use the ‘Auto’ button to place bets and cash out.

The X-axis on the grid shows the time the rocket has been airborne, while the Y-axis displays the possible winning multiplier.

To win, you need to jump off the rocket before it explodes and cash out at the highest possible multiplier - 10,000x. 

Of course, you can also secure smaller multipliers by cashing out earlier. 

There aren’t really any special features or bonus games in Space XY at least in the traditional sense. It is a simple game with few rules and no symbols. However, there are a couple of interesting features beyond the simple crash mechanism.    

As the rocket continues on its flight, it passes into different zones, hitting multipliers at certain coordinates across the flight plan. You can watch the flight to determine how much money you will win if you cash out at each point. 

You can place one bet, or more, depending on your preference. This means you potentially have more than one chance to scoop the top prize.

You can set the game to cash out automatically once the rocket reaches a certain point on the Y-axis. Of course, if the rocket explodes before it hits that point, you will lose your stake. 

The design is very simple, with a stark black background displaying a grid. The small white rocket is little more than an outline illuminated by a warm glow and shooting yellow flames. It’s a timeless design that puts the focus on the rocket and the betting action. 

This kind of crash game has proven popular with crypto players who liken the gameplay to the trading of cryptocurrencies, so it makes perfect sense that Space XY is a crypto-game. This is a new direction for BGaming but, if you like multiplayer crash games, chances are you’ll enjoy Space XY. It’s simple but effective, with a pleasing 97% RTP and a strong 10,000x your stake up for grabs. The graphics are stark but not displeasing, creating a classic look and feel for a contemporary game. The chance to place multiple bets and the opportunity to cash out automatically add a little something extra to the proceedings.
