| This game is played on the turntable. A four-digit prize (possibly a five-digit car on occasion?) is presented. Then, the Scrambled board comes around the turntable. The price of the prize is shown, but two of the numbers are misplaced. The board is made of the same material as the Secret "X" board, and the numbers are the same material as the X's, so you can take the numbers off and stick them somewhere else. To win the prize, you must switch the two numbers that are in the wrong spot, so they are in the right spot. For example, let's say a price of $6918 is given for the price of a jukebox. You can switch the 6 and 9, for $9618; the 6 and 1 for 1968; the 6 and 8 for $8916, the 9 and 1 for $6198, the 9 and 8 for $6819, or the 1 and 8 for $6981. In this particular example, it's the 6 and 8 for $8916. This game can be made easier by using zeros or repeating digits. For example, if the price of a prize is $2790, you can probably guess that the 0 is, in fact, correct, leaving only 3 reasonable combinations. In fact, if the game doesn't produce enough winners, they can make it an unwritten rule that the prize always ends in 0. Also, a price like $3949 can make the game easier, since that leaves 5 possible combinations instead of 6. I think, even though it would be a quickie game, it could be interesting, and I think it would be a nifty addition to the show. |
