DESCRIPTION:
Players answer questions from categories selected by a makeshift one-armed bandit (the topmost card in three piles) similar to the long running television program. Jokers are wild, and two- or three-of-a-kind make for increased payouts ($50 for a single category, $100 for a pair, and $200 for a triple). First to collect $500 wins, and has an opportunity to collect $1,000 more in the bonus game. Most money over several rounds wins the game.
The first three editions were based on the CBS run and had the "Jokers & Devils" bonus round (used for most of the show's first 18 months), where players must make three "spins" of Joker-Joker-Joker and avoid any Devil card; the first spin won $100, the second $300 more and the third $600 more, for a total of $1,000. (The show itself awarded prizes of increasing value for each spin.)
