questions & answers
There are three types of questions that you will be asked to answer:
True or False
,
Multiple Choice
&
Fill-in Questions
. Use the keyboard on the lower screen to answer the questions and you will see your
answer appear in the upper screen.
If you begin inputting an answer and then decide you would like to read the question again, you can touch the
subject box and the question will scroll across the top of the screen. Continue inputting your answer when
ready. There is no time limit for answering questions, so take your time!
If you answer the question correctly, you will earn money and the game will continue. The money box at the
center of the screen will show you how much money you have won throughout the game. See the Money
section of the instructions for information on how much money each question is worth.
Throughout the game, any subjects that have already been selected will no longer appear on the screen - only
the subjects that are remaining to be selected will be visible. Touch another subject to continue.
cheats & save
Just like the show, this game includes two “cheats” that can be used once per game when you are unsure
of the answer to a question.
The first time you answer a question incorrectly, there is the possibility that you can be “saved” by your classmate.
The game will let you know when you have answered a question incorrectly and then it will display your
classmate’s answer. If your classmate’s answer is correct, you will be “saved” and the game will continue (notice
the SAVE circle disappears from the screen). If your classmate’s answer is incorrect, then the game will end.
Once the cheat and save features have been used during a game, your classmate will return to his desk and no
other classmates can be selected for the remainder of the game.
million dollar question
If you correctly answer the first ten questions, you will reach the Million Dollar Question. A randomly selected 5th
grade subject will appear on the screen. You will now have to decide whether you want to go for the million dollars
or “drop out” of the game with $500,000. Touch the DROP OUT circle to drop out of the game or touch the Y on
the keyboard to view the Million Dollar Question.
The Million Dollar Question is always a fill-in question. Classmates cannot help you answer the Million Dollar
Question, even if you have not used the cheat or save features during your game. If you answer the question
correctly you will win $1 million and win the game!! If you answer the question incorrectly, you will only win
$25,000 and will not win the game.
money
Each of the 10 questions asked during a game is worth
a different amount of money, and the dollar amounts
increase as the game continues. The list below shows
how much money you will earn for each correctly
answered question.
If you answer questions 1-4 incorrectly, and you cannot be “saved”, you will end the game with $0. Once you
answer question 5 correctly, you are guaranteed to win at least $25,000; so if you answer questions 5-11
incorrectly, you will end the game will $25,000.
You can “drop out” of the game at any time during questions 2-11 and end the game with your current earnings
(dropping out on question 1 will not win you any money). For questions 2-10, you can drop out of the game after
you have read the question. For the Million Dollar Question, you can only view the subject before deciding to drop
out of the game. Once the Million Dollar Question is read, you can no longer drop out, so if the question is
answered incorrectly, you will end the game with $25,000.
game over & sleep mode
At the end of a game, you will be asked if you want to play again. Touch Y to play again and the game will reset.
You can also touch NEW GAME to start a new game.
Touch N if you no longer wish to play and the game will shut down. To play again, slide the switch to OFF and
then back again to ON.
The game will enter into sleep mode after 5 minutes of inactivity. To resume the game, tap the screen anywhere
in the subject box or keyboard area.
To fully power down the game, slide the ON/OFF switch on the back of the housing to the OFF position. We
recommend fully powering down the game to save the battery life.
When a
True or False Question
is asked, only T, F and ENTER will appear on the keyboard. Touch T if
you think the answer is True or touch F if you think the answer is False; then touch ENTER to submit your
answer. If you make a selection but wish to change your answer, you can do so by touching another letter,
but once you have touched ENTER, your answer will be submitted and can no longer be changed.
When a
Multiple Choice Question
is asked, only A, B, C and ENTER will appear on the screen. Touch
the letter that corresponds with what you believe is the correct answer (A, B or C) and then touch ENTER
to submit your answer. If you make a selection but wish to change your answer, you can do so by touching
another letter, but once you have touched ENTER, your answer will be submitted and can no longer be
changed.
There are two types of answers to
Fill-in Questions
: word answers and number answers. If you are asked
a question that requires a word answer, all of the letters on the keyboard will appear on the screen. If the
question you are asked requires a number answer (for example, an answer to a math question), only
numbers 0-9 will appear on the keyboard.
When answering Fill-in Questions you can delete the last letter or number that you inputted by touching the
back arrow ( )on the keyboard. If you need to make a space between two words, touch SPACE. Touch
ENTER to submit your answer.
NOTE:
All answers to Fill-in Questions must be spelled correctly. If you misspell a word, the game will not
recognize it as correct. However, the game will disregard articles that precede an answer. For example, if
the answer to a question is “VOLLEYBALL” any of the following answers would be accepted:
VOLLEYBALL, THE VOLLEYBALL, A VOLLEYBALL.
