Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records LuckyGrid Lite — Arcade Prize Draw version 0.5.3 as active, updated 1mo ago and tested up to WordPress 7.0.
Overview
About this plugin
LuckyGrid brings the arcade “chase-light” prize board to your WordPress site — a distinctive alternative to the usual spinning wheel. Prizes light up around the board (any size from 3×3 to 12×12) and the light races around before landing on the winner, with retro arcade sound effects.

Fair by design: the winning prize is decided on the server with weighted random selection and stock control. The browser only plays the animation, so results cannot be manipulated from the frontend.
