Hi,
I'm not Jim, but I'll take my best shot. In the original game, there were
two types of round. In the first, the three contestants were asked a
question, and one would buzz in with an answer. The remaining wo contestants
would be given three choices, including the buzz-in answer, to pick, one of
which was guaranteed to be the right answer. If the buz-in answer was
correct, than the player who buzzed in got 3 spins, and anyone else who got
it right got 1 spin. The second round was a bit simpler. For each "spin" you
had a board of money amounts and prizes. When you were ready, you pressed
the buton, usually shouting "stop!" and would win whatever you stopped at.
The catch was that there were whammies on the board, and if you hit one
you'd lose everything. Furthemore if ou hit four whammies you were out of
the game. If you did not want to take a spin, you could pass the spins to
the personwith the most money, and they would be required to take them.
There were two suc rotations, and the winner got to come back as the chapion
for the next show.
I hope that explanation was at least semicoherent :)

Best Regards,
Hayden

Hi Jim,

What is this game about. I have never heard of the game show, Press Your
Luck, so could you explain this game to me?
