Have a holly, jolly festive season with these instant-win games from the Minnesota Lottery. You can choose from four new games and win up to $500,000 in cash prizes. Here’s what’s on offer:

Lucky Numbers

This is a $2 instant-win ticket with a top prize of $10,000. To play, scratch off the two dollar symbols to reveal the winning numbers. Then, scratch off the 10 rolls of cash symbols to reveal your numbers. If your numbers match any of the winning numbers, you win the amount shown. If you reveal a stack of cash symbols, you win the prize shown instantly. If you reveal a 2X symbol, you win double the prize shown.

Ca$h Money

You can play this instant-win ticket for $20 and win up to $500,000. To play, scratch off the six dollar bill symbols to reveal the winning numbers. Then scratch off the 25 stacks of cash to reveal your numbers. If any of your numbers match the winning numbers, you win the amount shown with that number. If you reveal a moneybag symbol, you win $100 instantly. Reveal a 5X symbol and multiply your prize five times. Scratch off the three Bonus Boxes for extra chances to win. If you match two symbols on Bonus Box 1, you win $25. If you match two symbols on Bonus Box 2, you win $50. If you match two symbols on Bonus Box 3, you win $75.

Frogger

This $5 instant-win ticket has a top prize of $100,000 and three ways to win. To play, scratch off Frog 1 to reveal an arrow. You must follow that direction. Then, do the same for Frogs 2 and 3. If the path you follow leads to the Finish play area, you win the prize shown. If your path contains an X symbol, your path ends there. If you reveal a frog or coin symbol, you can continue to scratch in the direction that the arrow in the box with the symbol is pointing. If you match three symbols in all three paths, you win the prize shown in the legend. If you find a prize amount, follow the arrow and keep scratching. If you match three prizes in all three paths, you win that prize. If you don’t win the first time, hold on to your non-winning Frogger instant-win ticket. You can enter it into the Second Chance drawing from December 5 to January 23. You could win one of the following prizes:

  • $2,500 cash and a lottery prize pack
  • $500 cash and a lottery prize pack
  • $100 cash and a lottery prize pack

You can enter by registering or signing in to your Minnesota Lottery account and entering the required details from your non-winning Frogger instant-win ticket.

Gnome Crossword

This is a $3 instant-win ticket with a chance to win a top prize of $30,000. Scratch off the Gnome Letters box to show 18 letters. Scratch off any letters that match in the Crossword Puzzle boxes. If your matching letters reveal four or more complete words across both boxes, you win the prize in the legend.
