The Texas Lottery is run by the government of Texas. Its most popular game is Mega Millions; its other major game is Lotto Texas. Unlike Powerball whose "PowerPlay" is available wherever Powerball is played, Texas is the only one of the 12 Mega Millions jurisdictions with such a feature; it is called "Megaplier". Other games include Texas Two-Step, Pick 3, and Cash Five (previously known as "Cash 5").
Unlike most Mega Millions jurisdictions, where the choice of cash or annuity can be made after winning the jackpot, in Texas, the option must be exercised when playing; e.g., a ticket for annuity cannot be changed to cash after claiming the prize. This also applies to Lotto Texas.
On October 1, 2007, Texas introduced a game similar to Pick 3, called Daily 4; Both games have an add-on, called Sum It Up.
All Texas Lottery games require players to be at least 18.
