Example prize-style games

Three simple, fictional games to show typical number and wheel formats. They are examples only, not offers.

North Star Numbers

Calm number draw with small sets of numbered balls.

Basic rules

  • Pick 6 different numbers from 1–40.
  • A draw reveals 6 main balls and 1 bonus ball.
  • More matches mean a higher notional prize level.

Simple guidance

  • Treat each draw as independent and random.
  • Use small, fixed budgets and avoid chasing results.

Example: you pick 5, 12, 19, 24, 31, 37. If the draw shows three of your numbers, that would correspond to a mid-level notional prize in a real game.

Aurora Prize Wheel

Wheel with coloured segments and simple outcomes.

Basic rules

  • The wheel is split into equal coloured segments.
  • Each segment has a symbol and prize level label.
  • The indicator shows the final segment after a spin.

Simple guidance

  • Decide in advance how many spins you are comfortable with.
  • Do not increase stakes based on recent outcomes.

Example: you choose one blue segment. If the wheel stops on blue, it would map to the prize level linked to that segment in a real game.

Maple Sphere Match

Rows of numbered spheres with small match conditions.

Basic rules

  • Three rows, each numbered from 1–15.
  • Select one row and three numbers in that row.
  • A draw highlights five spheres across the grid.

Simple guidance

  • Keep selections steady instead of changing rows often.
  • Notice how often you think about the grid outside play time.

Example: you choose row 2 and numbers 4, 9, 14. If two of those are highlighted, that would align with a basic prize tier.

How prize-style games usually work

A short, neutral overview of typical steps. Always check the official rules for any real product.

1. Read the rules

Scan the full rules slowly. Note the number ranges, draw times and any age or location limits.

2. Set your limits

Decide how often and how much you are comfortable using for prize-style games, and keep it separate from essentials.

3. Make your selection

Choose numbers, rows or segments according to the format. Avoid impulsive changes during a session.

4. Check and pause

Check the outcome once, compare it with the prize table if there is one, then pause before any next session.
