Should You Play PAC-MAN™ Right Now?

PAC-MAN™ is a $2 scratch-off that has been on the market for 30 weeks. The ROI is -41.1%, so this one is best played for entertainment rather than value. Each ticket returns an expected $1.18 in prize value. Only 1 of the original 4 top prizes remains — act fast if you're chasing the big one. Top prize odds are holding steady with a 20.2% change since launch. Among the 5 active $2 games in Kentucky, PAC-MAN™ ranks #5 by expected value. If you're looking for the best value at this price point, also consider Jefferson ($1.90 EV) and PAYDAY Multiplier ($1.24 EV).

Alternative Strategy

Instead of buying one PAC-MAN™ ($2) ticket, consider buying 2x $1 Break Fort Knox ($1). This combination delivers $1.22 in expected value compared to $1.18 for the single ticket — a 3.9% improvement. It also gives you a 37.0% chance of winning at least one prize versus 27.8% with the single ticket. Play responsibly — lottery games are for entertainment.
