ABOUT THIS GAME
As of October 26, 2026, 3 of the 6 $50,000 top prizes are still unclaimed; across the 10 prize levels the lottery reports, 711,401 of 1,328,750 prizes (54%) remain.
At current prize levels a $5 ticket returns about $3.46 on average (0.69 per dollar), which ranks 8 of 42 $5 games on sale in New Jersey, above the $5 median of 0.66. Among every New Jersey game with a computable value it is 48 of 142; nationally it sits in the 60th percentile. Like nearly every scratch-off, it pays back less than it costs on average.
Over the last 30 days, 237,198 prizes were claimed across the reported levels, including 1 top prize; at the current pace the remaining tickets would sell out in about 89 days (likely range 62–125).
New Jersey also sells 4 other issues of Super Crossword: game #1954, game #1917, game #1895 and game #1931. Each issue has its own print run and prize pool, so their odds and remaining prizes differ.
