Scratch Cards

Revision as of 16:35, 5 April 2009 by gtw>C-d-rom (Added images. Sorry, I don't have an Ammunation one. Not far enough through the story in the copy I'm using for screenshots)

A scratchcard (also called a scratch off, scratch ticket, scratcher, scratchie, scratch-it, scratch game, scratch-and-win or instant game) is a small token, usually made of cardboard, where one or more areas contain concealed information: they are covered by a substance (usually latex) that cannot be seen through, but can be scratched off.

Applications include gambling (especially lottery games), quizzes, and to conceal PINs for telephone calling cards and other prepaid services.

Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars comes with scratchcard minigames, taking advantage of the Nintendo DS touchscreen. There are many different kinds of scratch cards with varying rewards.
