Fame & Fortune — $5 New Hampshire Scratch Game #1676
Fame & Fortune (#1676) is a $5 New Hampshire scratch game launched on September 29, 2025. As of October 14, 2026 it ranks #30 of 59 active games on current payout (69.1%, $3.45 expected back per ticket) and #6 of 14 $5 games, #10 on any-prize odds (1 in 3.14) and #56 on top-prize odds (—). Since launch the payout has risen 1.4 points (67.6% at launch) and your chance of winning something has risen 31.9% (1 in 4.14 at launch). 0 of 4 top prizes of $100,000 remain, and we estimate 57,209 tickets are still unsold (94.5% sold). That is below average for New Hampshire; the New Hampshire ranking lists show better payouts, including at $5. A caution on the current figures: the any-prize odds have moved from 1 in 4.14 to 1 in 3.14, further than a game's odds really move. Its prize tiers disagree about how many tickets are left (between 0.04 million and 0.09 million), usually because small prizes are claimed late, and the current odds and payout lean on that disagreement. The printed odds are the safer guide, and our summaries do not name this game the best of anything (how we estimate).
