Should You Play Crossword Adventure Right Now?

Crossword Adventure is a $5 scratch-off that has been on the market for 57 weeks. The ROI is -45.6%, so this one is best played for entertainment rather than value. Each ticket returns an expected $2.72 in prize value. All top prizes have been claimed — focus on lower tiers if you're still interested. Among the 16 active $5 games in Oregon, Crossword Adventure ranks #9 by expected value. If you're looking for the best value at this price point, also consider Lucky Spot ($3.56 EV) and Mega 10X Multiplier ($3.33 EV).

Alternative Strategy

Instead of buying one Crossword Adventure ($5) ticket, consider buying 1x Crossword Detective ($3) + 1x Full Moon Crossword ($2). This combination delivers $3.22 in expected value compared to $2.72 for the single ticket — a 18.3% improvement. It also gives you a 43.7% chance of winning at least one prize versus 28.3% with the single ticket. Play responsibly — lottery games are for entertainment.
