Table lotto
Table lotto
— a set for playing the loto includes kegs (chips) with numbers from 1 to 90, dice for players, as well as several cards on which random numbers from 1 to 90 are applied according to special rules. The classic card has 3 rows, 9 columns and 15 numbers , 5 in a row, and the number of tens corresponds to the serial number of the column, counting from zero (for example, the number 7 will be in the first, and 37 in the fourth column). The facilitator alternately removes chips from the bag (blindly) and reads out the numbers on them; if the number is on the card, the player covers it with a die. The winner, depending on the variant of the rules, is the one who either covered all the numbers or covered the whole horizontal row. There are also children's variations of the loto, for example, with fairy-tale characters or animals instead of numbers.Note that this game is very similar to bingo (see the relevant paragraph), and the terms "lotto" and "bingo" are often used interchangeably. However, initially they are two different games. For example, in the classic lotto, the host takes the chips out of the bag; bingo uses a drum that gives out a ball with a number automatically, without human intervention — the presenter only needs to rotate the drum handle. Yes, the cards are different. At the same time, some manufacturers even refer games with a drum to lotto, and they can also be included in this category.
