Abstract
The lottery game is played by selecting a plurality of multiple digit rows of numbers each row is offset from the preceding row. The game is played by matching according to a lottery sponsored drawing sets of the selected numbers. A winning ticket is obtained when the drawn numbers are matched to those on the ticket in a consecutive manner either across or down matching all of the numbers across produces a jackpot winner. Matching some of the numbers either across or down also produces a prize winning ticket.
