Causes of Crash Game Leadership in Kenya and Brazil:
- visual recognizability (air transport theme = universal symbol of progress) and simplicity of mechanics
- analogy of the crash game to soccer, the predominant sport in Kenya and Brazil: up = match dynamics, down = goal in the last minutes
- In Kenya, about 40% of the population continues to live below the poverty line, making the gambling industry, especially the crash game format, an attractive way to make a quick buck.
- in Brazil, despite economic growth, the unemployment rate is 7%. This stimulates citizens' interest in gambling as an alternative source of income
Insight: JetX acts as cultural camouflage - the soccer analogy and aesthetics of flying machines pique players' interest through familiar symbols of progress and themes
- Soccer turns the game into a familiar scenario
- Airline format is perceived as an advanced type of online entertainment
