The new $5 Keno instant ticket game will hit stores on May 12. The Lottery says it works like any other scratch ticket, but it's designed to mirror the experience of the popular monitor game.

The game features a top prize of $1 million - just like Keno - and bonus spots that can reveal wins of $25, $100 or $450. Also like Keno, there are 3X, 4X, 5X and 10X prize multipliers.
