My 13 YO son made this. The current Powerball jackpot got his attention and he wanted to simulate just how hard it is to hit 1 in 290,000,000.

It's pretty funny. So if I understand correctly, in the first stage 7 out of 8 squares are red? Edit: I played it a bit more and I think I understand the first stage, but I haven't made it past it yet. If all 7 stages were identical, then you'd need a 1/16 chance of winning each stage to make the odds come out correctly. So I'm guessing the stages get progressively harder.

The stages do get progressively harder. Stage 2 is 1 in 10 and I think stage 7 is 1 in 36.

Fun app. Tell him to keep up the good work! I made it to stage 4, but it was easy to see how lucky I was!
