This is the third variation of Wheel of Fortune we
have found but it is a classy production that deserves a play even if
you have the others. The object in Wheel of Fortune is to guess the
letters in a word or words that can represent a famous person, a saying
or phrase, a film or whatever. You spin the wheel before your go to see
how much each guess is worth, hoping that you will avoid the bankrupt
segment which will lose you all of your points in the round. If you
watch the program on TV then you will know exactly how to play but there
are instructions included. The game can be played with up to 4 players
and is controlled by your choice of joystick or keyboard. There are
fourteen puzzles included, each with up to 100 phrases, but you can
create your own with Atari writer or any word processor that saves in
ASCII format. Full instructions are included. This is one of those games
that you think you could do without but which becomes really addictive
when you start to play. An ideal family game, especially if you create
your own puzzles with easier phrases for the children.
Boot with Basic.
