Philadelphia Player Wins Nearly $200K Playing PA Lottery Online Game


  • Online Gaming

A lucky Philadelphia resident recently won a prize of $197,508.36 while playing the Pennsylvania Lottery’s online game Interstellar Blast Invasion.

Interstellar Blast Invasion is an EZ eInstant game that features the chance to multiply winnings up to 10 times and includes bonus game opportunities. It also contributes to both the Minor and Mega EZ Jackpots, offering players multiple chances to win big.

The Pennsylvania Lottery’s online platform, launched in 2018, allows players to participate in games like Powerball, Mega Millions, Treasure Hunt, and Cash4Life from their computers, tablets, or mobile devices. 

Players can create an account at palottery.com to get started, using debit cards, credit cards, or linked bank accounts for transactions. The PA Lottery Official App is available for both Apple and Android users.

The PA Lottery emphasizes responsible gaming with built-in options for setting time, deposit, and spending limits. Players also have the option to take breaks or self-exclude for extended periods if needed.

Pennsylvania remains one of just 13 U.S. states offering online lottery products, providing new ways for residents to try their luck while supporting state programs funded by lottery proceeds.
