This game uses any show format (preferably the UK game) but uses one twist.

At the second offer, you can decide to swap out one of the remaining boxes, and put in its place one of the boxes you've taken out (randomly). If you decide to take this up, the box taken out of play is revealed, and a random box is put back, nobody knowing its value. You can then decide to swap your box for the one you switched out, remembering it could contain one of the 8 values you've removed already. Offers subsequently will also reflect what the swapped box could contain. If you decide not to accept the offer, the game continues as per normal.

This twist can really change everything! Who would like to play?

Lots of damage but at least we can (probably...) partly undo it. SWITCH!

Right then, now what you have to do, is pick one of the remaining boxes. Then, select a box from 1-8 and the independent adjudicator has sealed inside them the eight values you've revealed already.

Remaining numbers:
2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 15, 16, 17, 20, 21

Old values:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
