Title: Price Is Right game on Facebook
Post by: DoorNumberFour on July 16, 2010, 04:06:23 PM
Only open to the first 10,000 people. There's still plenty of room. It's an awesome experience.

Search "Price Is Right Beta" on Facebook to get in on the fun.

EDIT: Here's a direct link: http://apps.facebook.com/priceisrightgame/ (http://\"http://apps.facebook.com/priceisrightgame/\")

Did this. First (and only) hit: the group "BOB BARKER IS MY GOD".

I love it when comedy writes itself.

I don't suppose a plea for text boxes and less Flash will actually be heard, will it?

My version is constantly telling me to upgrade Flash, even though I have the latest version.

To it's defense, there are big check-boxes not to share items. But yea, it's chatty - so is Family Feud.

Doesn't seem to want to work with Google Chrome.  With Firefox, it's fine.

So...used up my first 25 "free" coins.  Went back today and got a mere three more.  Are there other ways to get coins?

I love the Beta: I'm playing Clock Game, with a prize revealed in the Safe Crackers safe.

Do you only get to play the pricing games that you buy? Wasn't sure because the game lets others play games that aren't released yet but I've played Safe Crackers every time

They're in the profit model business, you know, not the 'good game' business.  But you already knew that.

I'm actually surprised that it's semi-enjoyable despite being a 'game' on Facebook.  

/with almost one-third as many games as the Commodore 64 version!

You have to buy or unlock the pricing games to play them in game. Bonkers, eventually, is free.
