The Georgia Lottery has brought back the popular Holiday Market digital scratch-off game. The object of the instant-win game is to reveal three identical images and/or find one or more bonus symbols. You can win up to $100,000.

How to play

First, purchase your $2, $3, $5, $10, or $20 ticket. On your screen, you will see 16 Christmas baubles decorated with question marks. Remove each at a time or reveal all one to reveal all to show holiday symbols like Christmas stockings, gingerbread men, snow globes, and nutcrackers. Each symbol also has a prize amount beneath it. If you find three identical symbols, the images will flash gold, and you will win the prize associated with the symbol.

You can also win by revealing one or more bonus symbols. If you reveal one of the two gold Christmas ornament bonus symbols, you will enter the corresponding bonus game after completing the initial game:

  • Cabin Bonus Game: If you reveal the Gold Ornament Cabin Bonus symbol, you can play the Cabin Bonus game. To play, you must choose from a selection of doors. You will win the prize revealed behind each door until the collect symbol appears.
  • Wreath Bonus Game: If you reveal the Gold Ornament Wreath Bonus symbol, you get to play the Wreath Bonus Game. To play, you spin the prize wheel and collect whichever prize the wheel lands on.

If you’re really lucky, you might collect both bonus symbols and play both bonus games within a single play.
