ABSTRACT:
A lottery game card vending machine on which multiple games are available for play. The user can select any specific game desired. If an additional element of chance is desired by the player, the player can select a random selection function whereby a processing means comprising a random number generator adapted to the number of games available on the lottery machine is initialized upon actuation of a switch by the player. When the player actuates the random game selection switch the processing means randomly selects a lottery game/card to be played based upon the random number generated at the time the select button is actuated. The visual indicia will also light one at a time in a sequence, eventually stopping such that the indicia of the game selected by the random number generator is illuminated. The indicia may be lights or light emitting diodes (LEDS), for example, used to indicate the different games.
