The Basics of Playing Lotería
If you’re unfamiliar with how to play Lotería, don’t worry, it’s easy to learn. The game can be played with two or more players. Each player gets a Lotería board with a grid of pictures and a deck of Lotería cards is shuffled and placed in a stack. The caller draws a card and calls out the image. If a player has that image on their board, they cover that square with a token or chip. The game continues until a player covers all the squares on their board and shouts “Lotería!” to win the game.
In Conclusion
Millennial Lotería is a exciting and modern take on a classic game that celebrates and showcases Latinx culture in a fun and entertaining way. With so many unique and creative versions of the game available, there’s something for everyone. So what are you waiting for?
