Redesigning the Lottoland Keno experience

I worked on the Keno experience at Lottoland, using research and workflow design to make game choices and the path to play easier to understand.

Problem statement

Players needed to understand their selections, the relationship between stake and potential return, and what would happen before confirming a play. I examined these decisions with the team and used the findings to guide the flow and interface.

Research

Understanding Keno players

I reviewed player behavior and research material to identify where the Keno journey needed clearer choices and feedback. The findings informed the workshop, flow mapping and later interface work.

Framing the Keno design challenge

In a short workshop with Product Owners and a developer, I turned the research into focused questions about game choices, feedback and the information players need before placing a bet. This gave the team a shared starting point for exploring solutions.

User need to Needed Why + Insight

LOTTERY PLAYER

Place a system bet

Play a wheel

Review every line combination

Select numbers manually

Generate random numbers

Compare bet options before confirming

Understand how each bet type changes possible outcomes

Compare stake and potential return

See the total number of lines in a play

Review the numbers selected for each line

Understand the trade-off between cost and possible return

Know the total stake before submitting

  1. How we might provide to expert user a tool to increase the win chances reducing the stake and tier?
  2. How might we allow users to select their numbers to make more meaningful bets?
  3. How might we tell users where the results come from, so they gain more trust in the product?
  4. How might we allow users to play all possible combinations of numbers in any order to increase their chances of winning?
  5. How might we show users the prize of the selection so they know how much it will cost them?
  6. How might we allow users to edit the betslip to prevent mistakes?

Mobile user flows

I prioritized the initial features shown to users and mapped the primary journey to create a clearer, more predictable experience from the start.

The lottery journey was structured to reduce friction and help users understand each step, with clear feedback and guidance throughout the interaction.

By focusing on feature presentation and optimizing the core lottery journey, the design aimed to improve clarity, confidence, and ease of use.

Final design

I translated the agreed flows into a high-fidelity Keno interface using an 8px grid. The final design made number selection, stake choices and the state of a play more legible. It is a completed design direction; the case does not include post-launch performance data.
