Checking the list of prizes
The lottery has fixed prizes. Their current list can be viewed in the Prize List window - the most valuable prizes are rare crafting materials. Spirit Sake is also precious, as it gives you a lot of Virtue points when consumed.
You have to spin the Prize Wheel (left analog stick on the pad), and the ball color tells you about the type of prize you earn.
Once a get a specific prize, it will be marked as won in the Prize List. Of course, you can try to get more pieces of it.
Additional note - Do not get rid of the least valuable green lottery prizes, i.e. Scrap Paper. They may seem worthless, but after unlocking the farm (Second Home) in chapter 4, they can appear in Trade Orders. Move Scrap Papers to Storage so that they won't fill up the inventory.
Winning lottery tickets
You will receive the first Prize Ticket for free from the lottery employee to test the mini-game.
From now on, look for shiny objects on the ground . They appear randomly, and in the main part of Kyo they are almost always more Prize Tickets. That way, you can quite easily collect up to several dozen tickets and thus spin the Prize Wheel several dozen times.
You can also get free Prize Tickets from traders. This can happen if you make larger purchases at a given store.
