CLIVE, Iowa - A Fort Dodge man has won a lottery prize of more than $29,000.

Nicholas Swanson purchased his "MONOPOLY™ Game Tokens Progressive" InstaPlay ticket at Casey's, 502 Main St. in Dakota City. He claimed his prize of $29,862.60 on Monday at the lottery's regional office in Storm Lake.

MONOPOLY™ Game Tokens Progressive is a $5 game that features a unique play style based on the classic board game. Its progressive jackpot starts at $5,000 and increases with every ticket sold statewide until it is won.

InstaPlay games, which range in price from $1 to $30, combine features from instant-scratch and lotto games to give players an option with no numbers to pick, playslips to fill out or wait for a drawing. InstaPlay tickets are known as "scratchless" because they have no security coating that needs to be removed to determine the prize won. The tickets are printed on demand from the lottery terminal.
