AMERICAN CROSSWORD

**What's the deal** This $3 crossword game is currently rated a bit weaker, and here's why: the big $30,000 prize? It's gone. Zero left. When the top prize is gone, a ticket often isn't as exciting, even if it's still fun to play a crossword. **Who should play this** Honestly, this isn't for you if you're dreaming of a life-changing win with this specific ticket. It's more for someone who enjoys the crossword puzzle itself and isn't too worried about hitting it big. **Watch out for** That main $30,000 prize is completely gone. You won't be finding that one on any new ticket you buy. **The bottom line** Given that the top prize is no longer available, this ticket is best for those who enjoy the crossword game for its own sake, not for a shot at a big payout.
