There are three types of games to select.

Charlie O'Donnell does a little introductory chat at the opening when you select a game. Fantasy prizes are on offer, from hang-gliders to medieval castles. It lets the player participate as a contestant and brings the feel and atmosphere of being there. Wheel of Fortune is one of the Hasbro titles that came out in the December rush. Game-shows haven't changed in that time but Vanna White certainly has! Come on, give me the big money! Well, nearly 15 years down the road and it's all coming back to haunt me. I wasn't very impressed since she seemed to me worse than Barbie (yeah, I know, I didn't like Barbie either). Vanna White and her then popular anorexic physique strolling across the stage to turn letters and show prizes all the while Charlie O'Donnell got to do the talking and interacting with the contestants. I, of course, also did catch the odd showing of Wheel of Fortune in the 80s. The poor visitor was practicing all weekend in a terrified sweat. As a matter of fact, I met a contestant once on an outing to a hermit's house down in San Diego with a friend. It's one of the few shows with really intelligent contestants. Of course I did sit through the odd show of Jeapardy , which I have a high amount of respect for. Ever since this time, I avoided game-shows like the plague, its hard to watch something you don't believe in.

I was even in a game-show once as a child, but that's another story. I realized stars were just plain people and nothing more, and game shows were pretty fake really. How contestants were first interviewed for the right attitude and also coached on their behavior. I even went to the shows often and saw how everything worked backstage and how the audiences are told what to do and when. Watched them play baseball and show off their grand egos. As a child, I went to company picnics and met all the stars. They produced famous American TV Game Shows like Hollywood Squares and Gambit. You see, my mother worked for Heater-Quigly back in the game-show hot era of the 70s. My relationship to game-shows is slightly different than the average person probably.
