In the “DOUBLER PUZZLE,” if the player scratches three or more completed words, the player wins the corresponding prize in the prize legend. If one of the winning combinations shown in the prize legend has a completed word with a symbol of a money bag, the player wins double the prize amount shown in the prize legend. Only the highest corresponding prize can be won. A player can win up to one time on this puzzle.
In the “MEGA PUZZLE,” if the player scratches five or more completed words, the player wins the corresponding prize in the prize legend. Only the highest corresponding prize can be won. A player can win up to one time on this puzzle.
