Should You Play Mystery Crossword Right Now?

Mystery Crossword is a $10 scratch-off. The ROI is -28.0%, so this one is best played for entertainment rather than value. Each ticket returns an expected $7.20 in prize value. Only 1 of the original 3 top prizes remains — act fast if you're chasing the big one. Top prize odds are holding steady with a -5.4% change since launch. Among the 11 active $10 games in OK, Mystery Crossword ranks #9 by expected value. If you're looking for the best value at this price point, also consider Triple Red 777 ($7.61 EV) and For the Win!

Instead of buying one Mystery Crossword ($10) ticket, consider buying 2x Lucky Loot ($5). This combination delivers $7.38 in expected value compared to $7.20 for the single ticket — a 2.4% improvement. It also gives you a 52.3% chance of winning at least one prize versus 35.0% with the single ticket. Play responsibly — lottery games are for entertainment.
