New York Lottery Launches New $3 Scratch-Off Game -- Bejeweled!

Posted on Tuesday, 3 June 2014




SCHENECTADY, N.Y. -- The New York Lottery today announced the launch of its new Bejeweled scratch-off game, which has more ways to win than any other New York Lottery scratch-off game. Bejeweled offers an exhilarating new gaming experience for players with seven chances to win up to $60,000 on the scratch-off ticket, plus a comprehensive online component with additional ways to win cash and prizes. The Bejeweled scratch-off game is based on the ever popular Bejeweled® online game franchise.

The newest New York Lottery $3 scratch-off game, Bejeweled, offers players not only multiple chances to win $60,000, but there is also a digital second chance sweepstakes with a grand prize of an all-expense paid trip to New York City, and a chance to win $1,000,000, plus play-for-fun elements on the Bejeweledmicrosite at nylotterysweeps.com.

We believe this game will attract new players who are highly engaged with the digital world. These new players, as well as current Lottery players, will want to get in on the excitement of this new multi-faceted game with the scratch-off ticket, plus the fun and entertaining online components, said Gardner Gurney, Acting Director of the Division of the Lottery.

The Bejeweled scratch-off game (see attached copy of the ticket) launched May 27, along with the corresponding microsite at nylotterysweeps.com. On the microsite, players can enter the second chance sweepstakes, play a special edition of Bejeweled to compete with other Lottery players for a spot on the leaderboard, and enter a code redeemable for free coins on the Bejeweled Blitz online game on Facebook. Players can use those Bejeweled Blitzfree coins to get the exclusive New York Lottery Big Apple Rare Gem. A QR code printed on the back of the ticket and on marketing components, will automatically launch the Bejeweled microsite on a mobile device.

The Bejeweled game is supported through a robust digital advertising campaign, including social media, as well as radio, newspaper, and an impactful out-of-home advertising across the state. The launch advertising campaign for Bejeweled was created by the New York Lotterys advertising agency, DDB-NY. Bejeweledis a licensed property.
