Game shows overdue for a remake
Joe Mello:
It's still "one fail ends the game and wipes the bank" for a majority of the time. If you did something like start players out with a marker and/or have markers end the turn instead of forcing another roll, then that might change player behavior.
Although after thinking on it a little more, we'll never really know how much of those risk-averse passes were strategy and how much were "people are bad at math under pressure."

Crazy idea I've always had to revive Line and Secret that is tough to execute apparently because rights are a mess: The Panel Show. Four celebrites, five games: lead with a round of TTTT, then Who's Who from WML, play a round of Line with one of the imposters, play IGAS with the other, then end with a mystery guest. Revives Line and Secret in pieces.
That doesn't work? Cross-Wits.

I actually like this idea. Whether or not it can be executed . . .

If the stakes are that high—especially in cash—who would risk screwing that up to buy Instant Bargains?

that’s sort of on the prize buyers, yes? First class airfare and a week vacation with $5,000 cash would at least be worth a thought.
