Planes, licences and where it can go wrong
In a crash game a multiplier climbs until the round ends, and the player has to cash out before it does. Aviatrix launched its version in 2022 with one idea that set it apart from Aviator and other crash titles: every player owns a plane.
Planes are NFTs that can be customised with skins of different rarity, upgraded through an XP system and carried from session to session. Around them sit network tournaments with shared prize pools, live leaderboards, seasonal events, a cashback loyalty program, and built-in free bets and promo codes. Operators can brand much of the interface.
From one game to a "metaverse"
Co-founder and Chief Business Development Officer Mikalai Pobal has described the last few years as building a platform rather than a single title: an iGaming metaverse in which progression, rewards and achievements carry across several games. Aviatrix Second Chance arrived in 2026, Aviatrix Fruits brought the brand into slots, Aviatrix Mines was announced next, and the target cadence is up to one new title a month. The company says the original game still attracts tens of thousands of daily active users.
For an operator, the shared progression is the commercial argument. A player who has levelled up a plane has a reason to return to the same lobby, because that progress does not travel to a competitor running a different crash game.
Licences and testing
The game is certified in a long list of regulated markets, among them Malta, Romania, Spain, Greece, Italy, the Netherlands, Sweden, Estonia, Colombia, Peru, South Africa and Ontario. Testing has been carried out by iTech Labs, Gaming Associates Europe and Asensi Technologies.
Distribution and recognition
In January 2025 Aviatrix signed with QTech Games to widen its reach in Africa, Asia and Latin America, regions where mobile play and small stakes suit the crash format. The game was named Game of the Year at EGR's 2024 awards and Industry Innovation of the Year at SBC Latinoamerica the same year, after NFT Project of the Year at the 2023 SiGMA Americas awards. In November 2024 the company appeared in the Deloitte Technology Fast 500 for North America.
Where it can go wrong
NFT ownership and crypto payments are optional features, and in several regulated markets they are switched off. Plan marketing around the version your licence allows, not the version in the trailer. Crash games also produce fast rounds and quick repeat bets, which is exactly the pattern responsible gambling teams watch. Before launch, check that your session limits, reality checks and cool-off tools work inside the game and not only in the cashier.
