Three new games launching next Tuesday

Three new games are coming out on June 26, so here’s your sneak peek.

Crossword puzzle fans now have a new game and six chances to win $50,000. Red Hot Crossword is a $3 game with more than $7.7 million in total prizes and more than 196,000 prizes between $10 and $35. To win prizes, players get a set of 18 letters, which they use to match with those found on the crossword puzzle. If they match three or more words, they win the corresponding amount found on the prize legend. Players who reveal a “HOT” symbol in the Red Hot Bonus area win $25 instantly. Odds of winning a prize are 1 in 4.31.

Do you like it when your prizes multiply? Money! Money! Money! gives players the chance to multiply their prizes three times. It is a $2 game that starts with more than $6.4 million in total prizes. Players win the corresponding prize when they match one of 10 numbers with their two winning numbers. Revealing a “STAR” symbol wins the prize shown instantly. Players who reveal a “MONEY” symbol win triple the prize shown. There are eight $30,000 top prizes in the game, which starts with overall odds of winning of 1 in 4.59.

Cash to Go! is a $1 game featuring 10 top prizes of $4,000 and more than $3.4 million in total prizes. To win a prize, players must match any of five numbers to the winning number. Players who scratch off a “GO” symbol win the prize shown automatically. The overall odds of winning a prize are 1 in 4.97.

Anyone have a cool lottery experience lately? We’d love to hear about it!

@ AMWASH - That particular winning ticket was scratched off in Oak Island in New Hanover County. But, interesting story, the lottery is hoping to recover the prize money. You can read about it here: http://bit.ly/POEU44

Where was the winning ticket won for 20x the Money scratch for $1mil?

8/20/2012 02:07 - Amy W.

What are the prices for scratch tickets per pack? $5 pack, $10 pack, and $20.

@ EARL2212 - It depends what game you play, and how lucky you are. We wish you luck wherever you play games of chance!

these folks are right about the odds of winning anything on the scratch off tickets in this state. i went to Va. last week-never bought a scratch off in that state and the put $5 dollars in the machine and won a profit off my money. A man in the store said the odds are much better then in Va. then NC.

@ KNIGHTTT65 - According to our marketing department, it isn't possible to win four $1 prizes on a Carolina Black ticket... more likely you won your $5 back. We can't confirm via internet or telephone, but if you have the ticket scanned, that would confirm it. Best of luck on your next ticket!

I purchased the $5 Carolina Black, I had all 4 of the winning numbers on my card! When I cleared the prize area, it was $1 wins, so with 4 winning numbers I was able to lose $1. Is this how Nc plans to run its lottery?

@ PLAYER - There is not a new instant game with a 2nd chance feature right now, but there will be new ones in the future

6/27/2012 06:24 - Bernnattie L.

Is there a new 2nd chance scratch off. what about Carolina Black

@fastballral - As always, we hope you remember to play for entertainment purposes. If playing ceases to be fun, it may be time to take a break. We wish you the best of luck in the future.

@PuddinPop - We release new games all the time, so be on the lookout!

I have been waiting for the new crosswords . I just love them.

6/23/2012 12:06 - Jeffrey H.

I HAVE YET TO SEE A BIG WIN PARSAY IN THE CHARLOTTE AREA WHICH INCLUDES MATTHEWS,MINT HILL, STALLINGS,INDIAN TRAIL,MONROE PERIOD IT SEEMS THAT THE MAJORITY OF THE BIG WINNERS ARE IN COUNTYS SUCH AS GUILFORD,FORSYHE,CUMBERLAND,OR IN A SMALL TOWN KNOW ONE HAS EVER EVEN HEARD OF .I MUST SAY THATS PUZZELING TO ME.

crossword is fun and the $2 number match will be a good one to play. I do not like trying to match a picture or symbol. Numbers and letters are where the fun is. And a good buy at only 2 or 3 bucks a pop. I'll spend about $10 a week on these new ones (that s the money I'll save on lower gas prices!!!)

6/22/2012 12:04 - mary b.

i dont usually play crossword scratch offs because im too impatient but maybe i will change my stategy. any plans to bring back monopoly and any new 20 dollar tickets?

6/22/2012 08:57 - Randy L.

I had a cool lottery experience this morning--I bought 10 of the 20X times the money and it was cool not to win a thing as usual. Thank you for sharing--hope the lottery spends my $100 wisely.
