-'''''Tombola''''' is a mini-game featured in several Dragon Quest games.  It is similar to the [[Lottery]] and requires a ticket item in order to play.  The game consists of a spinning wheel which yields various colored marbles.  Depending on the color of marble which is released, the player wins a specific prize.  Earning a good prize typically requires many attempts.  Tickets are often given by shop keepers in exchange for making multiple purchases.
+'''Tombola''' is a mini-game featured in several {{Main Series}} games. Each play requires a [[Tombola ticket]], which can be found in chests, as drops from enemies, or as gifts from regular customers to supported businesses. Tickets are often given by shop keepers in exchange for making multiple purchases. In all appearances, the grand prize has been a [[Loyalty card]] that reduces the cost of items purchases at shops.

+Formerly translated as the ''lottery'', this game's tombola plays more like a slot-machine. Playing the Tombola requires matching symbols (similar to the [[5 Sigils]]) in order to win a prize. Unlike in other installments, the tombola is available in multiple locations:
+*[[Leftwyne]]
+*[[Moonaham]]
+*[[Rippleport]]
+*[[Burrowell]]
+*[[Beran]]

+The payouts are as follows:
-The special prize for tombola is a [[Loyalty Card]] which gives a 10% discount at all shops.  Getting the specialty prize a second time yields a [[Metal King Shield]].

+Interestingly, after the defeat of [[Hargon]], the Tombola owner in [[Moonahan]] gifts the [[Luminaries]] with a free [[Tombola ticket]] every time they talk to him. In addition, the [[Tombola]] in [[Leftwyne]] can still be played in the aftermath of the fell priest's ambitions. While there is no reason to earn the prizes given that all enemies are gone and all other shops are closed in celebration of the [[Luminaries]]' victory, the [[Tombola]] game can thus be played to the player's heart's content.

+Tombola acts as it does in ''Dragon Quest V'' and ''Dragon Quest VII'' in that it consists of a spinning wheel which yields various marbles and the marble received determines the prize.
+Unlike in the original version of ''Dragon Quest II'', different Tombola vendors have different sets of prizes depending on the location. Additionally, different vendors require different amount of tickets to be spent in order to play. The player additionally has the option to play ten times at once if they have the required tickets. New Tombola locations have been added such as in the [[Oasis]].

+[[Tombola]] is played at the pub in [[Lodestar Harbour]] in the {{DS}} remake of {{Dragon Quest V}}. In this game, [[Tombola]] consists of a spinning wheel which yields various colored marbles. Depending on the color of marble which is released, the player wins a specific prize. Earning a good prize typically requires many attempts.
