Just like playing on the show...but the prizes aren't real!
The game is pretty good, if you like (I won! I was Tour Guides.) these kind of games. It's just like Jeopardy, but modeled after Wheel of Fortune. The only problem (Bankrupt again!) that I've encountered is that you can actually choose to have the game play out ($15000 baby!) by itself. I guess it's for if you don't get enough of the actual show, you can watch the game…(Damn Richard won that one.)
The game play is pretty good, but very drawn out. Everything is done by using the d-pad as a mouse pointer and clicking the b button. It's easy, but slow. You also have to wait for the other computer players to do their thing, and sometimes that takes a while. Other than this, it's pretty straightforward. You can spin, buy a vowel, or solve. You choose, and it goes to the spinning screen. It lands on a dollar amount, and you choose your letter. This doesn't sound very fun, but the fun actually comes from trying to solve the puzzle.
The puzzles are all standard Wheel of Fortune puzzles, and they are pretty fun to solve. I usually solve them fairly quickly, but some are harder than others. There's really not much more to say about this game. It's Wheel of Fortune, nothing spectacular. I recommend buying this game if you like the game show.
