Scratch games represent diversity in the Colorado Lottery's product line. In fact, many players consider Scratch games to be the most fun and exciting of any of the games sold by the Colorado Lottery.

Why?

Because Colorado Lottery Scratch games come in a variety of sizes and shapes and offer varying prizes ranging from $1.00 to $500,000 depending upon which game you choose to play. Each game is unique - from the quick fun of Match 3 style games, to extended play games such as Crossword or to our more complex games that offer multiple play options all on one ticket.

Colorado Lottery Scratch games are available at Lottery Retail outlets who offer a variety of Scratch games, such as the game featured here...

How Scratch Games Work

Players scratch the latex covering a ticket to match or add symbols. Each game includes instructions on how to play, game probability, the top prize offered and how you can win.

How Prizes Are Distributed

Scratch games offer more small prizes than any of the Colorado Lottery's online games, such as Lotto, Cash 5 or Powerball. Prizes of up to $50 may be claimed at any Colorado Lottery Retailer. Prizes of up to $150 may be redeemed at any Colorado Lottery retailer who sells Cash 5, Lotto or Powerball. Retailers may redeem prizes up to $599.00 based upon their store policies or you can visit any of the four Colorado Lottery offices to redeem your ticket. Winning tickets of $599.00 or more can only be redeemed at Colorado Lottery claim centers.

Other Ways to Play

Out of State residents can play and win, and can claim their prizes by mail. However, Federal Postal regulations prohibit the selling of Lottery tickets by mail.

Tickets can be purchased as gifts for people under 18 years of age, but minors may not purchase Colorado Lottery tickets.
