How the loops differ
Scritchy Scratchy has you buy tickets, place them on plates and unlock automation, with Prestige resetting the run for permanent upgrades. Scratch the Ticket describes printing tickets, scratching cells and choosing whether to cash out or continue.
That makes Scratch the Ticket more of a per-ticket risk decision, while Scritchy Scratchy spreads decisions across catalogues, automation and permanent progression.
