Description
Keno is a simulation of the casino game bearing the same title. There are several variations of Keno, but in this case the player chooses a maximum of 10 numbers between 1 and 80. The game randomly draws 20 numbers by throwing balls on the board. If the balls land on the player's choices, he is rewarded with tokens. When it was first released, tickets to prize drawings were offered instead of tokens. The amount of tokens won depends on how many numbers were correctly guessed and on the ratio between them and the total number of choices. For example, the rewards are bigger if you correctly guess three numbers out of three choices, compared to three out of ten choices.
