Game Description

All of the standard keno game stuff involving picks, grid, hits, and misses applies.  In addition to all of that, there are about 20 different individual letter bonus spots. These letter bonus spots are not grouped in any way, but randomly placed on the grid.  Each of the 20 bonus spots represents a unique letter in the alphabet that helps fill in certain words on the meter on the right-hand side of the grid.  Whenever a letter bonus spot is hit that letter will trigger a travel animation of a dictionary from the bonus spot to any word that letter appears in on the word meter on the right-hand side of the grid.  Filling certain words triggers multipliers or free games.  Several letters appear in several words and will fill all of those anytime that specific letter bonus spot is hit.   

Triggering multipliers for the player’s current game is filling these letters to make these words: IQ, UP, ADD, TAG, and TESTS. If more than 1 multiplier is triggered they are multiplied together. Triggering free games during the player’s current game is filling these letters to make these words:  MATH, RECESS, CHALK, WRITING, HISTORY, and COMPUTER After filling one or more words the player is taken to a pick’em. The player can fill more than one word during a game and would get additional pick'em for those words.

Free Game Pick'Em:

The pick’em will have a number of sketches. The number of free games and the number of pick'ems is shown below.

MATH 6 -10, RECESS 6 - 10, CHALK 10 - 22, WRITING 7 - 25, HISTORY 10 - 40, COMPUTER 15 - 60

 Free Games:

During free games, all of the 20 letter bonus spots are still present.  The words that trigger things stay the same except that "MATH" is replaced with "ASK" and "DICTIONARY" is added at the bottom. More free games are able to be retriggered by the same mechanic as the main.  The one big difference is that every letter bonus spot hit during a single free game will trigger 1 extra draw at the end of the regular 20 draws.  So this means there are also 20 extra draws possible during free games.  If the last draw is a Hit then a DynaHit is triggered giving the player an additional 2x
