Providing new puzzle phrases, the third edition of the Wheel of Fortune series of games based on the popular television show, brings the same fun as the original. Up to three contestants can play. Players compete to solve the puzzle by spinning a wheel and guessing hidden letters of a person, place, thing, phrase or other category.

One of the most successful game shows ever made, Wheel of Fortune is a very popular TV program that catapulted Vanna White to stardom as one of the most recognizable TV celebrities. For those who has never seen the show, WOF is a language game that requires both luck and skill. The object is to solve a 'hangman'-like mystery puzzle. Three contestants compete, taking turns spinning a huge wheel divided into sections containing various dollar amounts, as well as spaces such as 'BANKRUPT', 'LOSE A TURN' and 'FREE SPIN'. If a contestant span a dollar amount, he/she could then guess a consonant to receive that dollar amount for every time that consonant appears in the puzzle. An incorrect guess or spinning the wheel to one of the penalty spaces means control goes to the next contestant. At any time during a player's turn, they can elect to spin the wheel; ask to 'buy a vowel' of their choice, in which case $250 is deducted from their score; or solve the puzzzle. The player with the most winnings at the end of the show is pronounced the champion and gets to play a bonus puzzle, which he/she had 15 seconds to solve after guessing five consonants and one vowel to be uncovered.

Softie, which later became GameTek, obtained an exclusive license to produce computer version of this popular gameshow, on the heels of getting a Jeopardy! license. The game milked the license relentlessly, releasing approximately one WOF PC game each year between 1987 and 1994. New features were added as technologies advanced, from CGA to VGA and digitized voices of Vanna White in the 1991 Deluxe Edition. Each new version features more questions than the last, although they disappointingly border on the easy side and tend to be from only a few categories (e.g. people's names, common nouns). Still, fans of the TV show will definitely enjoy these computer releases which are quite faithful to the originals. Don't expect a tough challenge, but do expect Vanna White's characteristic smile and flipping of white cards :)

I CAN NOT HANDLE THIS BECAUSE THE COMPUTERS ALMOST BEAT ME AND WHEN GET THE HIGHEST SCORE YOU WILL GO TO THE BONUS ROUND. BUT THE JACKPOT ROUND IS THE FIRST ROUND. IF YOU LAND ON THE JACKPOT WEDGE YOU WILL WIN THE JACKPOT. BUT IF GET BANKRUPT OR LOSE A TURN YOU LOSE YOUR TURN.
