The present invention provides a lottery type game system, method and ticket,
wherein the winning of a game is determined by the assignment of game images to
a predetermined number of consecutive positions along a linear array. The value
of the prize is determined by the precise position along the linear array at which
this predetermined number of game images are assigned. The assignment of the position
of a game image can be established by: a) matching a game image associated with
a particular gaming piece with an identical image located at a predetermined position
along the linear array; or b) receiving a game piece upon which both the game image
and the assigned position of the game image along the array is indicated.
