When playing Virginia Lottery Halloween games, there’s no need to be scared, even though the odds may not always be in your favor. Simply exercise caution to prevent the spooky fun from affecting your budget.
Which Halloween plays from the Virginia Lottery are causing a stir in the dark?
The Addams Family Game
The latest and highly sought-after Halloween game by the Virginia Lottery is neither eerie, peculiar, nor chilling. However, it does possess an element of enigma as you eagerly anticipate discovering if you have clinched the grand prize of $60,000.
To begin every game, a 5X5 grid of symbols and a prize chart are provided. If you uncover a group of three or more identical symbols on the 5X5 grid, you will be awarded the corresponding prize.
- Another matching symbol must be positioned directly above, below, or to the left or right of a given matching symbol.
- Your prize will be multiplied by the amount shown on the multiplier symbol if you discover a prize cluster.
- Ten free plays are unlocked by three “Free Play” symbols.
- The Card Bonus game is unlocked by three symbols with the label “Card Bonus.” Choose a card and receive the prize it reveals.
- To activate the Bonus Game, you need to obtain three “Bonus Game” symbols. Once unlocked, you can choose from eight tiles until the “Collect” option is revealed. At that point, you will be awarded the sum of all the accumulated prize amounts.
The cost to play The Addams Family Game varies from 20 cents to $30. The likelihood of winning in this game is 1 in 4.62. Moreover, the chances of winning the highest jackpot prize of $60,000 are 1 in 2,000,000.
