Gold Lotto was released on Gaia Online September 10, 2009. With every ticket Gaians bought, they had a chance at striking it rich and claiming Gold from an ever-growing jackpot. Originally the Gaia Lotto was in the Gaia Aquarium, it was then moved to its own page with a large icon at the top banner to access it. On November 2, 2009 the icon was removed from the banner and Gaia Lotto was placed under the Games tab. If no one guessed the winning numbers, then the Jackpot would roll over to the next day.
