It had to happen. IT HAS HAPPENED. Here's my series!

How it differs from the UK version
It's actually using the Irish version as a base, so... let's rewind!

How it differs from the Irish version
The board's in sterling, but is otherwise unchanged. For those unfamiliar with the Irish board, it's the UK board with four extra boxes to create a 26-box game, and here it is in sterling form:

1p
5p
10p
50p
£1
£5
£10
£25
£50
£100
£250
£500
£750

£1,000
£2,000
£3,000
£5,000
£10,000
£15,000
£20,000
£35,000
£50,000
£75,000
£100,000
£150,000
£250,000


The Irish version - and hence this one too - follows the 6-5-4-3-2-1-1-1-1 offer pattern of Miljoenenjacht and the US/Australian show.

Like other forum series on here, this one has bolt-ons based around offer predictions and Box 23. Except it's not Box 23 in this, of course, it's Box 27... which is 3^3. That's significant, because Box 3^3 has a 3x3 grid of options:

Triple, Double, +£10,000
Money Back, Car, Viewer Prize
Half, Quarter, Nothing

Select Car, and whatever cash you won in the game is replaced by a Renault Zoe valued at £18,443. The Viewer Prize, meanwhile, stems from an eight-box minigame played by "a viewer at home" on this board:

£1
£10
£100
£500

£1,000
£10,000
£20,000
£50,000


The Viewer Prize also contributes to a rolling jackpot. Half of the Viewer Prize (rounded up to the nearest £1) is added to the jackpot each game until it is won.

The three colours of 3^3 are also the basis for the prediction bolt-on, which applies to the first three offers. Get within 7.5% of the offer, and you will lose one of the blue óptions from it. Miss that but get within a wider 15% band, and you'll lose a purple option. Miss that 15% band, and you lose a red option. Box 3^3 is always optional.

Great idea, KP. :smt023

I really liked the Irish version as it has a great hybrid of the American format and the UK Banker pshycology. I'm assuming you forgot to put the £150,000 box on the board, especially as you only have 25 amounts on the board. ;)

I'll gladly play this version at any time.

Thanks! I was on autopilot entering those amounts from £3,000 onwards :smt046

Expect a game tomorrow!

How is the jackpot from the viewer prize actually won...?
I'd be up to try this, though!
