Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment, Not Income
At Crazy Time, we believe that online gaming should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only. Games are designed with a house edge, meaning that over time, the odds favor the casino. Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose, and never view gaming as a way to earn money or solve financial problems.
Please gamble responsibly and within your means. Set strict budgets and stick to them.
Age Verification
Online gaming is strictly restricted to individuals aged 18 years or older in India. By accessing Crazy Time, you confirm that you are at least 18 years of age and legally permitted to gamble in your jurisdiction.
If you are under 18, please do not use this website. Parents and guardians are encouraged to monitor online activity and use parental controls.

If you recognize these signs in yourself or someone you know, please seek help immediately.
