Scratch Ticket is a
fun casino game based on familiar lottery tickets. Lottery
games have been around for much of human history, dating
back to the time of the Caesars in Europe and the Hun
Dynasty in China. The term "lottery" is believed to
come from the Italian lotto, meaning destiny or fate.
In 1974, the Commonwealth
of Massachusetts in the United States developed the
first "scratch" lottery ticket. This enabled pre-printed
tickets to be safely distributed to thousands of purchase
points around the state, making it easy and convenient
for people to play anywhere. Players soon had the thrill
of revealing their numbers by scratching off a coating
or film with a coin and knowing instantly how much they'd
won. Scratch tickets became so popular, they quickly
spread to every corner of the world. Now, you can enjoy
the same thrill of playing a scratch ticket anytime
with our exciting online game.
Game Play:
It's called Treasure Island Scratch
Ticket, and you get to dig for buried treasure!
First, purchase a scratch
ticket by placing chips in the golden bowl on the table
("Place Bets"). The value of the ticket is equal to
the amount of your bet. You can bet from $2 to $5 on
each ticket. The more you bet, the higher your reward
when you win.
Your scratch ticket
is the map, which contains 16 hidden sections just brimming
with buried treasure. Each section contains a piece
of one of the fabulous jeweled treasures (artifacts)
shown on the left side of the screen. If you uncover
enough pieces to complete one of these treasures, you
win that artifact's multiplier times the value of your
ticket. With a $5 ticket, you can win as much as $5000!
To start the game, press
the PLAY button. Your mouse pointer
will turn into a shovel. To dig up the buried treasure,
scratch off the map sections by moving the shovel back
and forth over the map, or bring the shovel to a section
and left-click the mouse to clear that section. (Alternatively,
you can simply click the SCRATCH OFF button and the map
will be cleared for you).
As each section is uncovered,
the buried jewel hidden beneath will fly to it's artifact
pattern and snap into place. If you find all FOUR unique
parts to piece together a complete artifact, you win!
Each artifact has a different multiplier (1x, 2x, 5x,
10x, 100x and 1000x), and you will be paid that multiplier
times the amount of your bet when you get a complete
artifact.
For example, if you
purchase a $5 ticket (by putting a $5 bet in the bowl),
and you find all four pieces of the Skull artifact (10x),
you will be paid 10x $5 = $50. If you find all four
pieces of the Anchor artifact (1000x), you win $5000!
