Super Crossword is a $5 scratch-off that has been on the market for 61 weeks. The ROI is -35.8%, so this one is best played for entertainment rather than value. Each ticket returns an expected $3.21 in prize value. There are 2 of the original 13 top prizes still available. Top prize odds are holding steady with a -30.9% change since launch. Among the 18 active $5 games in Texas, Super Crossword ranks #14 by expected value.

Alternative Strategy

Instead of buying one Super Crossword ($5) ticket, consider buying 1x Cashword ($3) + 1x Cash Line Bingo ($2). This combination delivers $3.27 in expected value compared to $3.21 for the single ticket — a 1.9% improvement. It also gives you a 43.0% chance of winning at least one prize versus 24.6% with the single ticket. Play responsibly — lottery games are for entertainment.
