| Gene Wood: "It's more than Password it's Password Plus!" "Password Plus" debuted on NBC Daytime in 1979. |
 |
| And your host, "Mr. Password" - Allen Ludden! Allen was the first host of this, the third incarnation of "Password". He hosted the previous two as well. |
 |
| As with "Password" two teams, a celebrity and contestant compete. |
 |
| In the first round the celebrity gives the clues. Only one-word clues are allowed. A maximum of three clues per team (later changed to two) is allowed. Guessing correctly means a shot at the puzzle. |
 |
| Allen: "Now here's the plus." The password then goes into the puzzle. The answer is a person, place or thing. |
 |
| There are five words to a puzzle. Guessing it correctly earns your team $100 in the first two puzzles, and $200 thereafter. Giving and receiving roles switch every round. |
 |
| The first team to win $300 goes to "Alphabetics" for $5,000. The celebrity uses a series of one-word clues to convey ten words, arranged alphabetically. |
 |
| Each illegal clue used deducts $1,000 from the jackpot. Getting all ten in less than a minute wins the money. If they fail, the player gets $100 a word. |
