How to Play

This game is fairly straightforward and easy to follow along, like most games offered by the Michigan Lottery. Once you purchase your in-store ticket, just follow along to what the ticket says to do.

Each game is broken up into sections. If you happen to reveal three matching symbols, then you will win a prize for that game.

You can also get bonus multipliers that greatly increase your earnings. These include:

• Reveal a “10X”, you will win 10 times that prize amount.
• Reveal a “20X”, you will win 20 times that prize amount.
• Reveal a “50X”, you will win 50 times that prize amount.

Once you have scratched your ticket, do not throw it away. Make sure you count the total number of Ruby symbols for each game (1-20). After you have done that, check out the prize table to see how many Ruby’s add up to the prize you have won.

Odds, Price, and Prizes

The overall odds of winning a single prize for Ruby Mine are 1 in 3.78. If you are wanting to increase your chances of winning a prize, you could purchase another ticket.

Keep in mind that each ticket costs $10 to play, so this could eat up your spending fairly quickly. Make sure you have enough money set aside to play.
