Free Craps

How to Play Free Craps Games

Craps is a dice game with a variety of betting options. The table layout can look intimidating at first, so free play is a great way to learn the rules and follow the roll of the dice without risk.

Step 1: Select your game
Choose a free craps variant above and click Play Now to launch the demo.

Step 2: Place your bet
The best place to start is with the Pass Line bet. Put your chips on the Pass Line space - it’s the most common wager and carries a low house edge.

Step 3: The first roll (come-out roll)
Click Roll to throw the dice:

• 7 or 11 → you win.
• 2, 3, or 12 → you lose.
• Any other number → that number becomes the point.

Step 4: Add more bets
When a point is set, the game pauses to let you place additional wagers, such as the Odds bet behind your Pass Line. This bet has no house edge and improves the overall value of your wager.

Step 5: Keep rolling
Click Roll again to continue. The dice roll until:

• The point is rolled → Pass Line wins.
• A 7 is rolled first → Pass Line loses. 

Any payouts are added to your play-money balance.

Step 6: Explore other bets
Once you’re comfortable with the Pass Line, try other wagers like Don’t Pass (the opposite of Pass Line - it wins if a 7 is rolled before the point) and Place bets (backing specific numbers to be rolled before a 7).

Pro tip: Don’t Pass has a slightly lower house edge than the Pass Line. On the come-out roll, a 12 is a push (neither a win nor a loss), which brings the edge down to 1.36% compared with 1.41% on the Pass Line.

Free Online Craps Variations

Craps doesn’t come in many different varieties online. Most games are based on the classic format, offering the standard bets like Pass Line, Don’t Pass, Come, and Place bets.

The main difference is presentation - such as table design - and free play is the easiest way to see which you prefer.

One exception is Crapless Craps, a variant where the ‘come-out’ roll doesn’t lose on 2, 3, or 12. The trade-off is that payouts are adjusted and the house edge is higher than in classic craps.
