Probably Stolen lottery tickets and scratch cards come from the lottery seller, Georgio. To claim a win you scratch the squares across; if there is no winning combination you can throw the card away without finishing it, and if there is one you must scratch every square fully and then double-click the winning ticket in your inventory to claim the reward.
Probably Stolen Lottery: How To Claim A Scratch Card
- Scratch the squares across the card.
- If you have a winning combination, scratch every square fully. A ticket that looked scratched but was not fully scratched will not pay.
- Double-click the winning ticket in your inventory to claim it.
- Check that your money is actually going up.
The reward is paid in ordinary credits — the ticket's payout lands in your shop balance rather than as commissary tokens. The commissary panel carries a "Redeem All Eligible Lottery" button next to "Redeem Valid Food Stamps", but the commissary itself only accepts food stamp cards; the lottery pays in coins.
The Jackpot achievement tracks winning the jackpot on a scratcher ticket. Scratch cards are also a common find on dumping-ground trips, so the night scavenging page is where the free ones come from. Worth taking when you are ahead on rent, reckless when rent is the antagonist.
Probably Stolen Liquid Luck: What The Drink Does
Liquid Luck is a drink Georgio sells. Drinking it grants a luck effect, and the game notifies you when it wears off — it lasts about three days.
Observed effects:
- A luck notification can cancel an injury while you are in the Dumping Grounds.
- It can make officers ignore stolen goods during a search, with one player dodging an inspection over roughly 1,500 credits of contraband this way.
- With the gambler trait it can turn a scratch card into a winner, with one reported 350-credit jackpot on nutriseeds.
It is not a guaranteed effect and it is not consistent — players report drinking one and noticing no difference — and it does not last long enough to plan around a big deal. Use it right before a specific risky moment instead. Drinking it is safe; no player reports harm from it.
The search it can help you dodge is covered on the contraband and inspection page.
