How to Play Mystery Key Cashword

Mystery Key Cashword can only be found in stores at lottery retailers, so they aren’t available to purchase online. You will need to find one through the website and search for a lottery retailer or visit one nearest you.

In the main play area, scratch your ticket to reveal 20 call letters. You will need to look for any matches of your call letters to the crossword puzzles.

If you reveal three or more completed words within each puzzle, then you will take home the corresponding prize for each win. You can always check the prize table for the most accurate information.

The entire word has to be revealed in order to win a prize. Smaller words that are formed in the middle of larger words do not count as winnings.

If you complete three, four, or five words in any crossword, you will have an exciting opportunity to play the mystery prize section. This is located next to the number of winnings you have on your ticket, and prizes will vary depending on what is revealed.

The mystery key bonus will only be won if you happen to reveal the key symbol in any crossword puzzle. If found, all you need to do is look for the key bonus prize for that section.
