The video effectively deconstructs how incremental games transform the raw dopamine of gambling into a calculated system of strategic resource management. It reveals the thin line between mindless addiction and the intellectual satisfaction of optimizing mathematical probability.

Dishwashing to Feed My Scratch-Off Addiction - Scritchy ScratchyAdded:
Well, hello there everybody. Dre here and welcome to a little game called Scratchy Scratchy. Today we're going to experience what it's like to be a '9s era hiphop artist. I'm just kidding. I don't know. I don't know why I like to confuse you guys at the start of my introductions. No, we're doing a dishwashing game today. No, I'm kidding about that as well. Well, kind of. I mean, we do have to wash dishes, as you can see. But no, as the name would suggest, this is a game about scratching tickets. Gambling. Isn't it fun? Seems like there's a gambling game for everything. Where's my sound?
Why don't I have sound? Ah, my master.
Oh god. Okay, there we go. Sorry. I'm a professional YouTuber. Anyways, back to the exhilarating content. As you can see, uh, one plate equals $1. Symbol chance is 100%. Thank god. I think that means um for Well, we we'll get into it later. Don't worry about it. Oh, it's $2. Sorry, I thought it was Wait, was Oh, it's $1 to buy. I'm already confused. This is the problem. All right. Well, this is what we're going to do all day. We're just going to clean dirty old plates. So, we got a spaghetti plate right now. I guess we don't have water in this establishment. You just got to use elbow grease. Oh, yay. Can throw myself in there. Also, where the hell is it? Oh, it's probably in gadgets, isn't it? Okay, $2 trash can.
And poor again. But I bought a trash can for for whatever we do. We use it for.
All right, back to it. We got another spaghetti plate we got to clean. Ah, the sweet pop of $2. I've I just have to keep doing this. Oh, god. All right, hold on to your armchairs, everybody, because we are about to be a level one day jobber. As in dishwasher. Yay. What does that mean? Well, we got a nice little sound, so that's fun. Uh, I also think Oh, great. So, now we have a chance of breaking our plates. What's the point of leveling if it's worse then?
It's not actually worse, though, cuz we do gain $3 now as compared to two. So, I'm basically rich now. This is This is great. I hope I can get a better sponge cuz this is a little small this one.
Where's the tickets, bro? Like, what am I on plate eight? I guess I shouldn't have bought my trash can so early that I don't know really what it's for. I mean, do I really need a trash can? I don't know. Oh, hello. Uh, tired of Yes. Oh my god. I've got the perfect thing for you. Gambling, right? Yeah.
Scratch off tickets. Okay, great. Oh, thanks. A free one. Oh, this is how they get you. They give you one free one and then you're hooked, baby. Just like crack. Never take crack from a stranger.
Kids, what am I talking? I'm sorry, guys. I'm seriously don't ever do. I got I have to take myself a little bit seriously. I cuz people take me a little too seriously. All right. I love that I Wait, didn't I get a ticket? So, all I got was the convenience of buying a ticket with that ticket. Thanks. I think unless I somehow Did I accidentally delete it? I'm confused already. All right. Well, it's okay because one more clean plate and wham bam. Thank you, ma'am. We got a two win. Hopefully there's two winners on here. All right, so we got three symbols. This is the most boring scratch ticket I've ever seen. But hey, look at all these locked ones we get look to we get to look forward to. At least statistically, this won't be too bad. So Oh, what the hell is this? What am I scratching with a thimble? What the frig? All right. Well, that's a good sign. We got two. Oh, I already got $10. So, we only need two out of three. What happens if I get all three? I probably get more money, but $10 is 10. Wait, all I did was break even. What the hell's the point of that?
Oh, I'm never going to actually make any money in this game, am I? Oh, wait.
What's this? We got another $10, baby.
All right, so we're just kind of leveling up for free at this point.
That's the way I'm going to look at it.
Oh, hell yeah, brother. That's what I like to see. So, I You know what? Let me just take a second to say I bought three tickets and I've won three times. Now, I'm not really winning when I spend $10.
I'm getting my money back, but those odds are kind of insane. So, I am not complaining with that. Look at that. I have two tickets now. I don't mean to brag or anything. Oh my god, the dream.
Well, not really the dream. The moons would be the dream or whatever. What the hell are those things? Are they moons?
Look like a moon kissing a squirrel. And that that's that that's what I see.
Hello. I don't want to answer the phone cuz I have one more ticket to scratch.
So, just just we you you can wait. It's the '9s, I think. Hell, it's probably before the '9s with that phone. Freaking rotary dial phone. What the hell? Hi.
Takes a while to scratch those. Yes.
Don't you worry. I have just what you need. Upgrades. Yay. This This is what this game is all about. making scratching a breeze. Trust me, you're going to need extra power on those tougher c whatings later. Okay, I I I read cings and I was very confused. And you can never upgrade your luck. Amazing. Oh, sorry. And you can even upgrade your luck. Dyslexia sucks sometimes. All right, we've unlocked upgrades now, guys. We got a tin coin for a,000 freaking dollars. Did tin get expensive overnight? What the hell? And then scratch size, obviously. Let's get that right now. Okay. Okay. And now we got enough for three more tickets. Look at that. That's way better. Oh, we finally had our loss, guys. It's all downhill from here. Never mind. We're We're back in business. Wait, dude. I read this wrong. I thought the moons was the big one. All right. So, we want the money bags. All right. Well, we've leveled up again. And whoever's calling me just keeps calling me. Wow. We got a ticket available for you. Yay. This one has way better prizes, but you might need some extra luck to win them. What does that mean? H how do I gain luck?
Also, what's my trash can for? Oh, sorry. I should read. Scr scratch luck is over here. So, should I wait? I mean, I'm I'm I'm not a wimp. If I get $100, you know damn well I'm I'm going to be scratching that thing. Well, that's not a good start, is it? So, yes. I don't know if you've noticed. OH MY GOD. OH MY GOD. JACKPOT. SORRY. Uh bad timing for me to talk. I guess we just got our jackpot. But I don't know if you've noticed, but every time you level up, kind of addicting, your rewards get higher as well. So, we are, as you can see, rich. We are buying our mini scratch now. Let's just get rid of this piece of crap now. And voila, we have our mini scratch with disco ball area.
What the hell does that mean? I don't know. Also, the hardness of this is one.
Okay. So, are are these going to be challenging later on? All right. I need one more coin, please. Not the big one.
I don't need that right now. Oh, I need Okay, well, good start. What's What's this for? And there goes my $100. We are back to two wins, baby. At least we're not back to freaking my day job. So, like, what's stopping me from just going ham into two wins besides it being absurdly boring and then getting my level to like 9,000 and just being rich off of this? I feel like it'd be smarter to just play the game the way it's supposed to be played, but it is very tempting. Okay, how many can I buy now?
Okay, I just bought so many of these things. Maybe I should do that now. I didn't mean to do that, but I did mean to do it. Sorry. So, yeah, I definitely need to get some luck upgrades with what what whatever we earn here. Oh, I just realized I don't need to finish scratching. Oh, we can get sweaty and just kind of just end it quickly.
Oh, yeah. Now, now I'm knowing how to play sweaty. Screw scratching the whole thing. We are just here for profits.
Give me it. Give me it and move on. This one. This one. And done. Wait, did I not get that one? There we go. Got it. All right. So, we got $36. I think we should up our luck being that we have a bunch of stuff here. I don't know what that means, but I'm assuming that just we get a better yield. Actually, I didn't even look at my percentages until now. Oh, wait. What is that? We have a 0.2% for a diamond now or a star. Well, I like that. So, hopefully we can find one of those. It's going to take a while, I feel like, with those odds. Oh, hello.
Getting tired of scratching all those tickets. Not really. I'm kind of en enjoying myself now. But I guess I'll have a scratchbot. What is a scratch?
Oh, it's $1,000. Okay, so I guess I'll get scratchbot soon. Maybe I'll get $1,000 through all these. Well, stop the presses. Would you look at that? I can now get a robot. Hi there, little guy. I see that you have a zero out of three.
So, do I Oh, okay. There you go. Ah, and now you do the work for me. Ah, this is nice. I'm enjoying this. Damn it, I lost. All right. So, he's he's not the fastest, but hey, we're we're working together. It's teamwork. And how did your first win go? $93. Thank you. So, yeah, we definitely got to up the speed.
And I think we're going to slowly pivot over to this guy cuz my hands already hurting me. Uh but yeah, we can actually do some mini scratches. Now, I did up my luck a little bit. I just want to actually see if Oh, come on. This is a good start. This is a good start. If we get $1,000 right here, that's not That's not That's not looking good anymore. But hey, I'll be happy with 200. Come on, baby. 200. YEAH, AT least I think we need three. Indeed, we do. What the hell's the point of the disco ball? What is this? Do I unlock that somehow? All right. And we got another winner here.
Uh, another two hundo. So, I guess upping my luck did indeed help. But yeah, I need I I could really use that tin coin right now. Oh, speak of the devil here. Actually, you do this one.
You're probably luckier than me. There we go. And there we go. All right. So, we'll get him all queued up with the big ones. I don't know why. I just trust him more than myself. Uh, I guess. You know what? Let's just do all the big ones. We need to start leveling this up. Uh I really wish I did have a better scratcher, though. This is very annoying. All right. Well, I keep getting this 200. Uh not really complaining with that. I would like to get something a little bit better, though. So, what is the point? How do I Oh, I can trash it. Okay, cool. So, yeah, obviously this ain't going to give me anything. So, I can just go like that. Is that really what that's for? I mean, it's kind of handy, I guess.
Oh, the apple tree has been unlocked.
Hello. When you go scratch the apple tree, look out for worms. If you see a worm, don't scratch it. Worms only give negative payouts if they're fully scratched. So, you're telling me I should tell my robot to do this cuz he'll probably do it better than me. So, avoid the worms. Got it. Just let me finish this one. And by finish this one, I mean throw it out because we didn't win anything on it. Uh, okay. $2,000 for that. You You better have a major winner in here. All right. We just We're just good at winning 200s, I guess. All right. Back to it. No sleep for the wicked. All right, I'm going to upgrade scratch size finally and we'll get some more mini scratchers here cuz I don't really want to spend $2,000 on one apple tree thing, but I will soon cuz these things are not really working very well.
Oh, we got the 650. Almost the top one.
One day I'll get this jackpot. 650 again. Not bad. Back to back. And another 650 as well. Much better run there. We're at $2,000 now. How did you do? All right. 260 and zero. And he's still working on the other one. All right. I'm spending all my money on an apple tree. Okay. So, let's see. This is where we got to think. Symbol chance,000.
So, you really don't want a worm. Did I just Oh god. Oh yeah, that's right. I forgot. Um, so you can either have it to hold down a scratch or it always scratches. And obviously I have always scratch on, which is why I think we see a worm there. So we definitely don't want that one. So this is where you got to be like very careful. 0.1% chance on this. Oh, that's a B. Sorry, I thought it was the apple. All right. Well, bees are uh zero. So, that's great. And what's that? An apple. Okay. So, apple.
Is this what I'm supposed to do? This is really hard to scratch. Okay. And we can stop whenever we want. That's a wormy.
And that is that a bee? That's a B. All right. $1,000.
Oh, I just realized I lost money on that thing.
All right. That's okay cuz we got $2,000 again. This isn't a dumb idea. 100% of my investment into one stupid apple tree ticket. Yes, please. I like this one though, cuz there is actually some skill. All we got some sort of red thing. That's a big old zero. Great. And that's a worm. So, that's a big nope.
There we go. That's I think that's just the leaf. So, this is going to be hard to earn. That's another freaking worm.
What the freak? All right. So, there's no sense scratching this cuz I think I would legit lose money, right? Should I try? No, I shouldn't try it to find out.
That's a dumb idea. I just hate the fact that I have to trash a $2,000 ticket.
Well, goodbye. And you know what? I guess I'm going back to work. I can't even fill my robot anymore. Somehow we're back down to here. I knew I should have just maxed my my day job out to see how much money we could earn. Damn it.
All right, tickets are done. How' we do?
Okay, we are back in business. At least we can get some mini scratchers for this guy. There you go. have fun. I should maybe upgrade him as well. But to be fair, uh it's very expensive for upgrades right now. So, we really got to have to start earning money and not spending it on apple tree tickets cuz I think I need my luck up a little bit more before we do that. So, yeah, we'll throw out some two wins here. Do some real quick scratching. All right. And how'd you do? 130 and 130. Well, that's not very good, but whatever. We'll get over to mini scratchers now as we should probably level up these over the two wins. We're already level six on two wins, by the way. So, don't mean to brag or anything. All right, I've invested all my money once again into mini scratchers. We are now level two. And I mean, obviously, we're earning a hell of a lot more money now. So, I just want to get some money in the bank so I can upgrade my robot. I do wonder if upping the luck will give me that diamond again cuz we don't see diamonds on this one.
So, I mean, it's probably smart to do luck regardless often. Uh, I do want the scratcher, too, though. The tin coin.
Should we do that? Yeah, I'm going to do that beforehand. Sorry. Oh, it's so much better. Sometimes you just got to invest into yourself, man. And it's just so easy to see how quickly these things are now. Oh, sorry, robot. I just realized you're all done. Get some more on you, buddy. Oh, we unlocked quick cash. Dude, I've only played Apple Tree twice. Slow down, please. All right, just pass mini scratch level three. So now if we do win, we get $2,197.
Not bad. I don't think I've gotten the jackpot on this yet, have I? And yeah, quick cash is a is a small loan of $10,000. No thanks. How do we do over here? Uh either zero or $439 for you evidently. Oh, yeah. There we go.
Another 439.
Damn it. We didn't even get one upgrade.
I guess capacity and strength I could upgrade, but I feel like speed is is is the way. So, let's just let's just wait a little bit longer. Okay, we're at $5,000 first and foremost. Scratchbot, get that speed up, buddy. So, you can win more zeros. That's actually a big speed increase. That's nice to see. So, if I can get a big queue. What the freak's going on, Scratchbot? But yeah, if I could queue him up with a bunch more, uh, this would be great. So, get back to work. And I shall as well. All right. I keep getting 571s. You are doing about the same zeros and 571s, baby. Uh, so I got $3,000. I got to up my luck again. I got to get that luck going. And now that we have better luck, I can buy an apple tree and not worry.
Right. Right. Right. Okay. Good start.
So, what's great about this is Yeah, I could end right now if I wanted to, but I don't think there's really much of a risk of looking around. Okay, that's another apple. Oh. Oh, wait. Okay, so that's a flower. Damn it. I got excited.
Just got to watch out for those worms.
Doesn't even matter about these as long as it's not a worm, right? And much better ticket. But still, like even scratching these, right? I'm still losing money. Um, so yeah, I guess we're back to mini scratchers cuz we're stuck here for the time being cuz apple trees are jerks.
Oh, thank God. 1428. We got the big uh bills. I still just want to see three stacks, but I can't complain with backtoback bills. Back to backto back bills. Excqueeze me. Let's do it again.
Keep it going. Ah, almost. Almost. But we still got the 571 anyways. All right.
Two. Come on. Oh, you bastard, man. How did you do? All right. Well, we're getting bills. YEAH, MY FREAKING robot got it, but I didn't.
Also, what the hell's the point of the disco ball? I thought if you got jackpot, you could you could do this or something. It's just visually there.
It's a weird choice. All right. Now, the completely logical thing to do would be to um invest my money into gadgets and everything. So, we're going to do exactly not that and buy one quick cash.
Thank you very much. Um match three to win. Oh god, this is risky. Okay. Okay.
1 million. Imagine if I get 1 million right now.
So wait, is there a certain amount or do I just got to match three? Okay, we got this guy. I mean, I'd take $10,000.
10,000. Okay. Okay, dude. I got it. All right. So, I'm What do you want me to do? Do you want me to scratch the whole damn thing? Cuz I will. And we also get a bonus on this. Okay. I really need to invest into a new scratcher. So, yeah. I got 10,000. Did I get Okay, so you can get two on this obvious. Oh, I did get two. I'm I'm I'm a dingle. Sorry, I thought this was a different one. Uh, so yeah, I got $15,000.
And people say I'm dumb. A $10,000 investment converted to 15. Hold on. We got a bonus as well. Does this mean I get 25? I hope so. I'm trying. Oh, I wonder if it adds to this. So, if you have two of something, for example, you could help with a bonus. That probably is what that's for. Well, quick cash a hell of a lot nicer to me than the apple tree. That's for sure. So, we're probably going to stay there for a little bit. As I said, let's focus on scratchbot right now. So, we'll do those. Holy crap, the uh prices change, don't they? All right, but we need a ticket that I can at least have six of.
So, no. Giving him apple trees would be dumb, right? Cuz he would probably just scratch the worms, wouldn't he? Well, let's try one. You know what? What would that hurt? Let's see what he does. Let's see if he's a smart enough bot to know to not scratch worms. And I'm going to do another quick cash cuz that was addicting. Oh, look at that. Right away.
I mean, it's not a lot of money. It's $5,000, though. That should help me out a little bit. And oh my god, again. So, another 15 grander. And I don't think Yeah, bonus doesn't really matter. This is like the same damn ticket. Thank you very much. Hello. Oh, hold on. I got to see what he did. He did chop the worm, you idiot. All right, so that would have been a 4,000 ticket if I would have done it. Except he's he's a little special, so I guess I have to do apple trees if I wanted to do them. Not that I really want to. I should probably answer. This is annoying. We have a new exciting product available for you. A special device that will make it way easier to feed your scratchbot. A table fan. Just click and hold to blow right into the scratchbot. Ah, automation is coming. I can feel it. Why you calling again? You just called. Can't you just tell me all in one call? I haven't literally done anything since he called. It's $50,000 for a fan. What are these prices? Hello.
What? You can't win every time.
Sometimes you'll get a negative payoff.
But don't worry, you can just throw it in the trash.
Ah, wait. You can.
So, I didn't think about that. I've just been avoiding the worm, but if I get a negative, I can just I guess scratch it.
I'm still going to do these anyways cuz this is actually pretty cool. And there we go. We got a $3,000 ticket. I'm not going to do the worm. So, yeah, I think we should just focus on mini scratches for the time being. At least for this guy. I need to get him queued up. Oh, yeah. That's right. I need a fan, but I need $25,000 for that. So, I don't think we're getting that anytime soon. But at least now we can hold six tickets. And when I get a fan, I'm assuming I can just blow these over here. So, I'll just kind of periodically bring them over.
Uh, so he'll be doing mostly those and then obviously I'll kind of focus on quick cashes cuz well, it's way more fun. All right, we got five. Now, if I get one of the little things, we do get the bonus for 15.
So hopefully, is it a moon? No, it's cash. I'm going to do this anyways just in case. But yeah, I assumed we only get 5,000 for that. Can't win them all. How How are you doing? Here's some more. So, he scratched four in the time I scratched one. To be fair, these are very hard for me to scratch. All right.
Not Not a good start. Did we get Okay, so we got one win. And if I can, I might get an extra five. At least we got our money back. Okay, what do we got over here? And we got a bill, so that doesn't really matter. Uh, there we go. All right. Well, I still have enough money to do it, so let's keep going. He's still working on his tickets. And again, Damn it, man. I just want to get the cash once cuz that would change everything. All right. Well, there's five. And is this a moon over here? It is. Okay. So, now we can see how this works. I should get the 15 thanks to the bonus moon. So, that is very handy, actually. And there we go. Yeah, we got the 15. All right. No real luck with this one. Looks like we're going to be losing our money since we didn't get the extra one. That's just another cash. So, yeah, I'm kind of stuck at like 13.
Looks like my guy's going to finish up anyways. He did a bunch of these. We'll see if we got lucky. Got any jackpots.
Yep, that was a jackpot right there.
Didn't even say it anymore. I guess cuz we got it once. Dude, what the freak?
Three jackpots. Holy. My luck must have changed. Okay, you've done a lot better than me. That's for damn sure. You're at $40,000 now. Thank you, Mr. Robot. Cuz I wasn't doing anything. All right. Well, let's upgrade the Scratchbot speed then.
And yeah, we're going to invest heavily into Scratchbot cuz he seems to know what's up. Look at how fast he's going now. He's soon he's going to be printing these things out and I can have time to do like one every time he does six now.
This is great. Oh, I did it. I got the freaking cash, baby. All right, so there's 25 grand right there. That's what I needed. A little bit of luck. Why am I scratching that? I don't need to scratch it. There's no other wins. All right, that felt really good. I'm almost level one quick cash, which is also exciting. Here you go. I'll fill that up and do one more here while I wait.
Okay. And oh, we did get uh another winner here thanks to the bonus coming in clutch once again. So, we got an extra five grand. Not bad. And hello.
The fan is great and all, but sometimes you might want to save tickets for later. That's what the sticky mat is for. What the I haven't even gotten the fan yet. Game. Why am I getting so many unlocks? All right, let's see how we did again. Not so good this time. Well, kind of good, but not so good. There we go.
Damn it, man. I can't even afford the fan yet. I thought for sure after that one we'd be we'd be able to. Uh well, back to it. Actually, you know what? I could almost get him to scratch quick cashes for me. That would be way more fun. But yeah, we'll do some more of these for the time being and then move over in a second here. Oh, please tell me there's a bill here. You bastard. All right. Well, there's a loss. $5,000 on this one. Guess it's better than nothing. You know what? Let's upgrade the luck a little bit. Should I do it twice? Yeah, I'm going to do it twice.
That that's that's pretty ballsy, but I feel like a Did that just help with these cuz I didn't spawn those yet? I mean, how many jackpots did I just get back to back? I think it did. So, I think luck is extremely important. I'm glad we decided to do that. Um, well, you know what? We have enough now. So, we'll give him Well, we don't have enough. We almost have enough to give him a max thing. But, this was my dream.
So, there you go. I hope you're uh pretty lucky. And I got $3,000. So, I guess I'll I'll play with some mini scratchers, then he can do the rest of these. Yeah. Okay, there's first jackpot.
Uh yeah, you're seeing a lot more big numbers. Oh, I there I forgot there's the percentages over here. So, yeah, now we have a 1% chance uh for the low tiered symbols. I'm glad I actually noticed that. Uh so, that is why we are getting pretty much jackpots every time.
This is crazy.
I still haven't seen the uh star symbol or whatever it is, though. So, I really want to know what happens when we get that. I'm assuming we just get money.
But there's also a question mark. So, what does that mean? Okay. Yeah, that that was my my main mistake, not focusing on luck, cuz Yeah, this is this is just insane now. And it's going to get more insane the more we level this up, obviously. All right. I really almost I'm almost at 50,000, which is I think what we needed. Oops. Supposed to grab that. There we go. So, I'll just take Oh my god. Why is this 30,000?
Wait. Oh, sorry. He's doing different ones. I forgot. I thought he was doing the same ones as me. Uh, but yeah, he he first one he got the freaking bills.
Yes, please. Let's just keep going. 32.
32. Yes. And do I do scratch luck again?
Oh, this is addictive now. Uh, no. Let's focus on the things that I wanted to get. First of all, a fan cuz I'm a fan of it. So, what the hell do I do? Click it. Yeah.
Now we don't got to do anything besides periodically click a fan. Life's easy now. Uh scratchbot strength obviously.
Let's up that capacity as well. Get in there. So now we can hold nine. I guess I'll upgrade my scratch size at this point cuz I'm rich. Uh yeah, that exponentially ch changed, didn't it? All right. And now I'm not even going to scratch. I'm just going to hire this guy to scratch for me. I'm kidding. I I I will actually scratch, too. Oh my god, I'm so fast.
This is great. So now I'm just curious where the hell does this game go? Cuz obviously now we're going to be rich pretty easily.
I don't think I'll ever have to do a plate again in my life. Hopefully.
And yeah, we are jackpot after jackpot actually. Let's go. I want to buy a quick cash and see the percentages on this now. So there's still kind of 50/50, but we do have the diamond now.
Um, so I got to figure out what these are. But yeah, this is okay. This is going to be so much more profitable.
32,000 right there.
And then did I get Oh my god, I got another one. So 90. There's 100. There's 100 grand right there. I got a lucky cat. What's the lucky cat do? Probably gives you luck. That makes a lot of sense. All right, scratchbot speed. Oh, speaking of scratchbot speed, what are you doing? You're not scratching. You always have to be scratching. Let's get some quick cashes. That's all I can afford. That's kind of annoying. They're extremely slow. I hope I can upgrade my fan later. Maybe I should just grab some of these. Yeah, look at all those jackpots. Okay. And now we're sitting at $168,000. Simple. So, we are going to be moving over to quick cashes. There you go. Num nums coming in. And that was actually almost filled. So, I shall do the rest of these. Oh, yeah. Look at that. 71.
Um, okay. So, yeah, I need sticky mat. I guess I'll buy. I don't really see the point of it right now, but it'll probably make sense later on. All right.
And evidently evidently we saw luck is important. So I'll spend 125,000 on that. And I'll probably even get the cat as quickly as possible, too. Fan speed.
That could come in handy, but I don't think I really need it. Oh, wait. Lucky cat is not Sorry, I'm a silly goose. I thought it was literally a desk toy.
That is the next ticket that we get to do. So yeah, I guess we'll be doing quick cashes for a while since we're only level two on them. Should probably level them up a bit and up that scratchbot capacity. So now I can hold 12.
I cannot afford 12 quick cashes, but soon we will hopefully. All right, Mr. Scratchy Scratch is done. Let's see how he did. Getting a lot of zeros as you can see. I'm not sure why. God, I don't even have enough for a lucky cat right now. You know what? I'm not scared. Hold on. Just going to get a bit more money.
Bam. 301,000. All my money into the lucky cat. This is probably a dumb idea, but I like to live dumb.
That's my thing. I like to live dumb.
Watch out for fishbones. Okay, so this is apple tree all over again. God damn it, man. Damn you. So, 500k. What would I do? What would I actually do if I had I I'd have to freaking clean 500,000 plates. It's okay. We are going to get the gold bar for 5 million. You You watch. What is that? That would be a That would That looks Looks fatic, actually. But no, I'm pretty sure that's the fishbone. What is this? I don't even know what I'm supposed to be scratching.
Okay, so that's good. That That's 100K right there.
Do I just take it and go? No, I I I need a lot more than 100K. What am I saying?
I forgot this is a $300,000 ticket.
Another 100,000.
And oh, what's that one? Oh crap, that's a bone. I almost accidentally scratched that. So, I don't know. Is this a scratchy down here? What the hell's Oh, that's a bone, too. Okay, so three bones and two things. Thanks for letting me lose $100,000, but I guess it's good to not have no money. All right. Well, back to it. Just throw some quick cashes down, throw them into my bot, and I'll do a few of these as well. Damn you.
What is this? What is this? A freaking zero ticket. Feel like upping my luck actually made these worse, but it's just that there's much more chance to get these profitable um tickets, obviously.
Oh, wow. Well, that's that's convenient.
That's very satisfying to see. You know, I feel like by now I should have at least saw the diamond once. I mean, it's a 1% chance. I I've scratched a lot of tickets. Oh, damn. No sign. Look at that. $3,000 ticket right there. Well, I guess you know what we're doing. Back to the lucky cat.
I just want to get lucky with these. I guess that's the point of lucky cat.
Okay, that What is that? Is that the fish? Yeah, that's the fish. Okay.
And there we go. We got something yummy here.
$100,000.
Another freaking thing. What is this?
What? Get the same thing over and over again. All right. I really hate the lucky cat and apple tree. I wonder if like once you level them up though, they get so profitable. I really don't know.
This is just so nice though, screwing around and still earning a crapload of money thanks to this guy. All right.
Yeah, I'm still very much scratching a lot. So, let's get that aluminum coin as well. See how that works. It's a slightly better coin as I expected. Yay.
What the hell is this, man? What Why am I so unbelievably unlucky now? Oh, I got it. Oh, damn it, man. So, I That's going to be so hard to get. I thought I would just need one, but no, it's a 1% chance and then you have to get all three. So, we got to up our luck a bit. I feel like there's no way I'm ever going to get that without upping my luck. Speaking of that, let's actually go back to two win cuz there's that 0 point. Oh, it's still 0.2.
So, I want to know what it is, though.
It's a question mark, you know? So, maybe I should feed him a bunch of these. I mean, cuz why not? He should be able to do these ones quickly and see if we can get some sort of diamond out of this. Cuz yeah, I don't think upping the uh luck's going to change this now. It's always going to be that same percentage. I think it's the only one that's legit a question mark, too, cuz like if we go back to quick cash, was that a question mark? No, it just tells you how much you earn. So, that one's different and it intrigues me. All right, buddy. We're going to find it if it's the last thing we do cuz I'm just going to I'm just going to keep clicking and forcing myself to do this. I feel like maybe that's got to be enough. I've clicked a lot. All right, get in there.
Num noms. Oh god, he's going to have spend so much time on these. He's still working on the freaking quick cashaches.
Okay, we are finally over to the new ones. I was just curious, are these faster? They are much faster. So, that's good. Um, let's just get rid of these real quick. At least now I'm seeing the diamonds. So, he definitely gets the diamonds from time to time. And my god.
My god. Okay, chill. I didn't realize I had so many over here. Let's just Let's just do it quick. Just do it.
And I got 3.7 million. What do I do with 3.7 million? I guess upgrading bot strength right now makes a lot of sense.
I mean, he is he is going to be here for a while. But look at how fast they're coming out now. Capacity. Do I do it again? No. Speed. What am I saying?
Speed, you silly goose. Look at it. I might even do speed again in a second here. But before that, I have to do a lucky cat. Cuz one of these days, these are going to be profitable. I don't think it's today, though. Damn it, man.
Damn. Well, at least this one, this one gives you a big old zero. So, that's cute. Why do I get so many of the freaking skulls, though? Thanks for taking money again. So, I've tried Lucky Cat three times. I've won 200,000 twice and 100,000 once. WHEN AM I GOING TO PROFIT? ALL RIGHT, speaking of that, let's up our scratch luck. I guess scratch size for a million's not too bad anymore.
And I'll buy another lucky cat cuz they they seem to be very lucky to me. Yeah.
See, this is great. This is this is a great experience. And that's another one. This is ridiculous. This is absurdly ridiculous. Okay, dude. Another $100,000 one. Did you find this thing yet? H how are we doing over here?
Why is it all How many of them have been exactly the same? That was weird. These are WHY ARE THEY ALL THE SAME?
Like even the layout. I'm so Okay.
Something's fishy here. I don't like this. There's some There's some bot work going on that I don't like that this is the same every freaking time.
All right. Well, so far we have not found it for the record. So, the hunt continues. I guess I'll join in on that hunt cuz I didn't think it would take this long. But now I really do have to truly finish it just to know what the frig this thing does cuz it bothers me now.
I did it. I did it, too. Screw you, bot.
I'm better than you. What is this?
Question mark.
You've got to be So wait, you got to get three correct on top of getting it at 0.2% of the time. How much does this pay you? What does it unlock? Cuz it's still a question mark, you freaking bastards.
All right. Well, at least we we we we had visual. And now we know we have to win it as well. This is evil. Why am I doing this? I should have just be buying quick cashes and being rich in this game. But now I got to address this.
Also, unfortunately, if you were curious, you can't just like stat pad one of these uh scratch tickets. There is a max level. I'm pretty sure it's 10.
Uh I feel like that's probably the level I'm at.
But yeah, we earn what we earn now. We don't earn any more per uh win. Not that I'm complaining. I mean, it's like $689 every time I do this. I can't believe it. We did that whole thing that I bought. Uh to be fair, he's done a lot of them, so maybe we do have a win in here. Let's find out. I mean, we got wins, of course.
So weird seeing 689 pretty much every time. Oh, never mind. I freaking lied.
If you don't get one of them, I'm going to cry, man. I just want to know what this does.
Why is it a question mark? They know how to get me. Damn it. All right, we're going back to quick cashes for a little bit, though. I just got to earn some some quick cash. There's all my money in quick cashes. Let's at least do this for a little bit. Even the quick cashes.
Look at how fast he's printing them out now. This is great. This is I Why do I even freaking grab these things? Why do I grab these? Seriously, I don't I don't get it. What is this? Oh, that's 200k. I did it.
I hate that this is this is something I'm excited about, but I broke even on the lucky cat. Why are they getting worse? Seriously, apple tree and lucky cat. Ban them. I I hope this one's good.
All right. Good start, lucky cat. Bad start, lucky cat. Bad start. Bad start.
And we're poor. Thank you. I kind of miss my buddy calling me all the time.
It's been a long time since I've been called. There's still, as you can see, so much we need to unlock. So maybe I should just invest into these.
Scratchbot speeds at 3 million. I'm hoping we get there with these. I guess with Lucky Cat, if you really think about it, you're really just hunting for those damn um gold bars at 0.5%.
Did that go up, though? I'm pretty sure that went up with luck. So, maybe we should wait for Lucky Cat for a little bit. I mean, obviously that makes a lot of sense, which is probably why we're not profiting on them. Oh, wow. Diamond right away. God, if I get diamonds Oh.
Oh, please bonus. Come on, bonus. You bonus bastard. All right, and we're all done over here. I just gave him a couple of these cuz why not? And woo, I got the freaking diamond jackpot for 4 million. Well, the bot did. So, it's way less exciting for me, but still slightly exciting. What's not exciting is all those zeros. What the hell is that? There we go. Another freaking jackpot. Okay. Okay, we're good. Even with all these zeros, we're good.
Another jackpot there. So, I now should have 10 million. I have more than 10 million. Also, I don't know what the goal is here, but obviously I think it's to get to 50 million. We're well on our way. I really don't want to get there yet because I haven't unlocked everything. God damn it. Stop giving me millions. What the freak?
I'm so mad. I just won $20 million. All right. Well, I guess uh capacity, speed, and do I do strength? No, let's do speed again. Screw it. And then I still have $451,000 for quick cashes. is. And now this big dude can hold 15. Look at him go. See how fast he is now? Yeah, he's printing those things out.
Oo, I just realized as well with my added luck, uh, we do have a chance for the star question mark here, so I don't have to lose my mind on two wins. I've scratched so many of those damn things.
I did it. I got a jackpot of my own.
Come on, give me a cool jackpot screen.
I'm sorry, but getting it just once is kind of lame. I feel like I should get it every time I get a jackpot. That's got to be the most depressing ticket I've ever seen. This should be illegal.
It's literally a Z ticket. I mean, hell, I could lose uh 1.5 million if I was really feeling frisky. No, thank you.
Well, I I guess we'll throw that one in the trash. Thankfully, you're done. Oh, good start. There we go. That's a little better. Oh, good start. There we go.
That's a little better. That's much better.
And give me it all. 6 million. Goddamn, son.
Unlock final chance. I don't even know what. How did I get that? It must have been the freaking diamond. What's Oh, wait. I just realized. Oh, I don't like that. So, it's one chance, I'm assuming.
And it's $50 million for a ticket. So, I should probably upgrade myself first.
So, yes, I shall. Oh my god, I gave him way more tickets than I thought. $33 million again. We got to go for luck.
Not once, but twice. Screw it. just because now I want to see what we get on quick cash in terms of percentage. Still less than 0.1. That's kind of insane.
All right. Well, regardless, let's get this guy busy. I don't want him not screwing around cuz this is how we earn cash. So, there you go. Should probably upgrade that speed at this point, too.
It's only 250,000.
Oh, look at it. It's Well, it's hard to tell. Hold on. Let's see how much faster it is.
Yeah, that was worth it. But yeah, now we have a 35% chance for diamonds. So it should be like every third ticket's like 6 million now. So that's kind of silly.
All right, I've invested heavily into quick cashes.
Hopefully that will keep my dude busy for some time cuz yeah, I don't even know if I should give him lucky cats cuz like he doesn't know. He's he's too silly to know not to um unless I can drop these down to a way less chance, I guess. Is it dropping? cuz I think 5% it wasn't at before. So yeah, I think I actually might make some merit to play these ones now. I just don't know if it's smart to just kind of scratch everything. But yeah, I'll definitely play these instead of the other ones cuz he'll be doing mostly those. And it's pretty easy not to screw these up as long as you're not making your scratcher too powerful, I guess. All right, so we'll get some lucky cats. So yeah, I I see where this is going. I wish there was a fan that I could just direct this over here so I didn't have to manually do it. But yeah, if I was getting real sweaty in this game and just queuing up everything. This sticky pad does come in handy if I did want to keep them separated. So now I could, for example, buy more quick cashes cuz he totally needs more. And then throw them over there for him. Yeah, that's pretty cool.
All right. And yeah, now this is making a lot OF SENSE. WE GOT IT. Oh my god.
Okay, now I'm addicted. I'm addicted. We just got our first jackpot with this and it's well the same as quick cash. But hey, at least it's a lot more fun to scratch. And yeah, at 5% now with the gold. I think it was only two before.
I might even just get him to kind of do it. As you can see, they don't seem to be showing up as much now. Oh, I didn't even see the diamonds on this one, too.
So, yeah, they're on all of them. It must be. Oh my god, dude. Look at that.
Seven. That's my biggest win yet. And it's nice to see all wins on here. So, yeah. Actually, let's look at apple tree now. See how that's doing? Still a 5% chance. What are you talking about? So, there's always a 5% chance for the stupid little guy. Well, he didn't show up there. And I got my jackpot on that.
So, if you do want to get a jackpot for everything, that's probably important.
And I can't believe that I got a jackpot first one. All right, I'm just going to scratch. I don't care if there's any worms. There we go. Another 7 million.
Now, I really need to up my luck cuz it's just going to be so important for this ticket. But yeah, now it's not so bad. scratching these. I hardly ever see the uh fish anymore.
9.4. My biggest one yet. Oh, good start.
8.45 already. Uh just cuz I'm leveling this up. So, wow. I wonder what how much this is going to be worth once we get it to like level seven. Just like quick cash. There's another 10 million right there. I'm almost actually have enough to uh get the upgrade before even grabbing how he's been doing. Ah, what do we get? Clicker mini game. have a stock of more of a 100 or more scratch tickets. Okay. Wait, so I'm supposed to stock scratch tickets.
Wait, what? Where's the clicker game?
It's got to be in here, right? Okay, so that's just an achievement. Sorry, I thought it was legit a game cuz there's still so many locks in here. When do we get these? Must have to win Final Chance or something. Speaking of that, we have enough money right now. I'm just worried it's legit called Final Chance for an obvious reason. So, I'd rather just work on my luck and my lucky cat, if you will.
And speaking of that, let's upgrade that luck with just me. So, that felt pretty good. Still have a 5% chance on seeing the annoying. Oh, sorry. 0.5 now. Okay, this should be good. I don't care about that. So, yeah, we're probably going to queue him up with these now just so we can level up this cuz 0.5% chance is almost nothing. He should be almost done these anyways. He is almost done. Look at him go. All right. Well, we'll queue up some lucky cats then. Feels weird just all willy-nilly spending $300,000 on a ticket right now. But exponential games, man. Aren't they fun? And table full. I did it. I've maxed my table. I didn't know that was a thing, but I did it. I still have not seen two golds here. So, I'm just waiting for that cuz that's going to be nice. With 25% chance, it should be happening lots now.
Uh, it definitely wasn't that high earlier, but yeah, now we're probably going to be gaining I mean, well, statistically, we're gaining at least one of the gold nuggets every one of these, so it's about $10 million a ticket. No big deal. Oh, look at that.
Not two, but three. $26 million ticket.
Okay. And we're going to be rich now.
There you go. Have fun. I'm going to check all these for you now. You're doing great, man. Oh, what was that? Oh, that was that was this one. Okay. A measly 17 million. Okay, stop that. I don't like that they move the damn thing to click.
Stop playing for a second.
Let me grab all these. I got a lucky ticket again. What does that mean? Win a prize that is 1,000 times larger than the cost. Holy.
And I'm just seeing numbers and they they they don't even register anymore.
It's just numbers. I mean, I'm at 400 million freaking dollars. Okay, give me all these. I need to end this. I didn't realize I I had him do so many. I'm sorry, please. I just stop. All right, I I need to just let him finish cuz Yeah, I think there's a lot more in there than I thought. So, yeah, we're just going to let him finish the rest of these five. I will, as we wait, upgrade my scratch luck again, though, uh as I'm sure that will help immensely with the tickets I haven't yielded yet, just like it did before. And scratchbot strength, capacity, speed. We'll do one of each.
And he's all done. So now we can see what's going on. Lots of millions. Okay, back to the ones I was curious about.
And yeah, we still haven't seen him get one of the stars. Maybe he doesn't get them. Maybe it's only for me. I have no idea. Let's just GET IT DONE. AH, never mind. He got one. Okay, please.
Oh, so wish I had the extra diamond. All right. Well, I guess you can't win them all. I'm really hoping we can figure out what happens with that sooner or later here. Oh my god, I'm so fast now. So, at least now we know we can max the table.
And man, does the table let you have a lot of these. So, we're just going to max the table and see how we can do with the lucky cats. And there we go. Table is indeed filled. I think there's about 200 maybe. Hard to say. Let's upgrade that capacity so we can hold 21 now.
I could almost not play now. That I mean 21 takes a while. All right. And being that I have, you know, kind of screw off money, I think I'll do Oh, yeah. Table's filled. Okay. I'll take one off. And we're going to do one of these. Oh, god.
Okay. So, what's this do? Chance to win everything. Wait, wait, wait, wait. I don't know. I don't want to do that yet.
In case I if I lose, do I lose the game or is it just that I risk 50 million every time? I mean, there's still so much more to this game. That's the thing.
And these prices are all over the place, but it's always like a million, so can't complain with that. All right, let's get a copper coin. Finally, a scratch size up. And what do we need for him? So, yeah, we're at the billion stage for some of these. Oh, this is nice. Now, look at me go. Look at how fast I am.
I'm probably faster than him. My goal now is just to see a ticket with all gold nuggies. That would be pretty damn awesome, actually. Oh, come on. Come on.
A you bastards. Only 74 million.
Oh, that's almost it. Almost there.
Oh no. That's literally my first one.
0.5% chance. I've lost 2.4 million because of my stupidity. What? Dude, back to back. What is going on? Oh, wow.
Okay, that's a little sad. I've never seen a negative before. I guess that's Oh, I should have What am I doing? I just gave away $400,000. Oh well, cuz I could have thrown that in the trash.
That's kind of the point of my $2 trash can investments.
All right, I think Are we Yeah, we're nearing the end. Okay, how much am I at?
1.91. Okay, I want a couple more only because we are very close to having what we need for the next scratch luck.
And I feel like before I grab his massive stack, uh, I should probably get my scratch luck up. So, there we go.
Scratch luck is now up. It's still at 25%.
Nothing has changed. That's annoying. I was hoping the gold bar percentage would go up, but indeed it did not. So hopefully I didn't waste my in in investment there. All right, but yeah, he's been working on that for a while.
So this should be a crapload of money.
Hopefully we at least get one chance at the star thing.
And okay, the timing of that. Come on, man. Okay, I don't like that starting, dude. It's never going to work. So what do you get for that? Damn you.
122 million there. I don't know if you saw that. I think that'd be my big my might might be my biggest one. How did you even get 122 million? That must have been all goals. I didn't even see I'm obviously going kind of fast here.
126. So, sorry. 126 is only that, huh? So, what is five? Holy crap.
Well, it'll be about 200 million obviously if you if you took the time to do the math.
All right, let's just go faster.
Obviously, it will pop up if um any of these have the stars.
And that kind of shows you how rare and lucky that was cuz we only got one of them. H But there we go. We got 7 billion. I think it's time. I am ready for the final chance.
Never mind. Never mind. I'm not I'm not I I don't I might have just wasted money there, but to be fair, it was all skulls, right?
So, let's just buy another one. Let's Let's take a little sneak. Okay. Is it always skulls? You know. Uhoh. Where' my trash can go? All right. Well, I guess I'll just leave that there.
The thing is, I don't know what happens when this happens. Am I supposed to do it? So, I unlock more.
I don't even know. Like, I can't even really Oh, you bastard.
So, yeah, you can't choose another one.
It's always the same one that you're working on. Oh, damn it, man. Damn it.
Damn it. Damn it. How How does it take my trash can? All right, hold on. I have to see if it's if it's a game-breaking bug or not.
It just vanished. Did you see that? It was It was a ghost there for a second.
What the hell is that mean? Why is this happen? All right, hold on. Am I insane?
Like, why you see it there and it's just gone? Did I Did I kill my trash can? All right.
Well, at least before we we go, let's upgrade my my scratch bot a bit. Have some fun. There we go.
Let's see how long a two win takes now.
It's actually a lot slower than I thought. I think they're about the same speed, aren't they? Yeah, pretty much.
And there we go. 12 million right there.
All right. Well, I guess I I need to do it. The phone's not calling anymore.
It's It's not It's not like I can change my ticket now. Oh, I can reset it, though. But it's always going to be the same. So, let's just do it. Gambling never pays off, kids. I feel like this is how we prestige, isn't it? Didn't work this time. We're going to need more luck. Let's start over. You clean up here. I'll get the new scratch offs ready. Oh my god, it is a prestige. I called it, dude. And not only that, we have tech trees. So there's challenges.
I got JP points of of five. So now I can start with Scratchbot. That's kind of nice. I definitely want that. Start with Big Sponge.
Spend your tokens at the night market.
Maybe I should have figured that out first. Sorry. Um, jackpot power plus one JP on jackpots. I didn't realize it used all five. Oh, it didn't. It only used one. Okay, so yeah, permanently unlocked after dying once. Plus 25% on all tickets. I feel like that's pretty good.
Oh, sorry. That's something we get for dying. So yeah, I obviously you're intended to die in this game. I don't think I could have won that even if I wanted to. And yes, the jackpots we get are how we get these tokens. So you must only get one jackpot per ticket, though, cuz I definitely got a lot more jackpots than that. Uh, what else do we got here?
Booster. Scratch more. Scratch bot starts with more capacity, strength, and speed. You can add a battery to your fan so you can kind of idle. Um, completionist 20% on fully scratched tickets. Well, that's actually kind of nice cuz I do actually fully scratch my tickets usually. I kind of want to go into the tool belt though, just to see where this goes. So, yeah, it's only a big sponge. I just want to see what these are. 20 20% for manly scratch tickets. Okay. And then ignorance is bliss if you do not want to scratch your full ticket as well. This is pretty neat. Wish I saved my uh tickets for the night market though cuz that sounds really interesting. Uh and then I guess I'll get plus one JP on jackpots because uh yeah, we're definitely going to want to grind those. All right. And we'll get plus 15% for jackpots as well. So yeah, really interesting game. Uh I guess we have to prestige now. You can always abort your run from the pause menu.
Prestige time. And we're back at my dirty little day job. Let's check out my new sponge, though. Look at that. Isn't that great?
And there's my trash can back. Welcome back, trash can. All right. Well, that was a quick look at Scratchy Scratchy. I hope you guys enjoyed this cute little incremental game. Let me know if you guys like to see more. I don't know really where this game goes, but obviously we only unlocked like half of the unlocks, I want to say. So, yeah, I'm very curious to see if there's more robots or if we can get more into uh depth with the robot. But yeah, fun little game. If you guys do enjoy Scratch tickets, I think you'll like this. And yeah, as always, thanks for watching and liking. I'll see you in the next
