The second revision of Six-Shift. The basic game is the same as always - normal UK rules but with 'shifts' changing the board, one before the game begins, another before each of the next five offers, and the option of a Seventh Shift that changes one of the two remaining amounts dramatically (not available on an all-blue finish).

However, this version gives both the player and the Banker room to make every game different, thanks to their selection of 'tricks' - inspired by (and a couple are directly taken from) the 'power ups' and 'power downs' from cfd's Power Deal. (That game shares something in common with Six-Shift - I made up the name, but not the game!) Both the player and Banker can play up to three from a selection of six.

PLAYER TWISTS
Red Up - the lowest red is multiplied by 10.
Paint It Orange - two random blues are replaced with amounts between £1,000 and £5,000.
Extra Offer - what you think; the player must declare when they wish the extra offer to be made. It will not come with an accompanying shift.
Promise Me - the Banker must guarantee what the minimum two-box offer will be for keeping the highest red in play at the time this twist is played.
Stabilise - the second- and third-highest amounts on the board become the mean of each other (e.g. on a board where the three highest amounts are £3,000, £50,000 and £100,000, both £3,000 and £50,000 become £26,500).
Guaranteed Upshift - playing this guarantees that the next shift is upwards (if it would otherwise have been downwards, it becomes a small upshift). It cannot be used for the Seventh Shift.

BANKER TWISTS
Red Down - the lowest two reds are divided by 10. Can only be played if at least three reds are on the board.
Deflation - every amount on the board is reduced by 1% (to the nearest 1p).
Remove Offer - the Banker must declare which offer will not be made; the two-box offer cannot be removed.
Negativity - a random blue is changed to a random negative amount, up to -£50.
Nom Nom Nom - the two highest blues on the board are changed to food products (worth a minimum of 0.5% of their prior cash value).
Guaranteed Downshift - playing this guarantees that the next shift is downwards (if it would otherwise have been upwards, it becomes a small downshift). It cannot be used for the Seventh Shift.

The tricks can be used before and after each shift (except before the first), and after each box from 11-box onwards. Whenever one party (Banker or player) uses a trick, the other can reply immediately; the game only continues when both have agreed not to use any more tricks, so if the player decides not to reply to a Banker twist, the Banker can then add another, or indeed vice versa.

Aaron, do you understand and are you ready?

I understand, and as a wise man once said, "LET'S DO THIS THING!!"

Then do this thing we shall!

...after we find out if you get a help vest in the form of a positive first shift. We do the shifts automatically these days after cfd's question marks over how they used to work, so here we go...

...erm, no. £5,000 becomes 1p.

Do you wish to use a trick?

Not yet, its far too early to call, and they might just go anyway. I'll have Box 1 please

OK, you have number 1.

The Banker also refuses to use a twist at this early stage, so at the 22-box offer this is your scenario.

3 PLAYER TWISTS REMAINING
Red Up | Paint It Orange | Extra Offer | Promise Me | Stabilise | Guaranteed Upshift

3 BANKER TWISTS REMAINING
Red Down | Deflation | Remove Offer | Negativity | Nom Nom Nom | Guaranteed Downshift

Banker's offer:

£4,500

No Deal!

Now lets see, I'll have 3, 14, 15, 9 and 2.

3 - 50p! Good start, back to three huge downshifts.
14 - £75,000! Down to two huge upshifts. Nasty.
15 - £50! Good.
9 - £3,000...
2 - £250. A blue to finish!

We're at the second shift, and the Banker has decided to toy with you. With £250 gone, he is now making the highest blue £100 by using NOM NOM NOM!

£500 is now Biscuits For Cheese (850g, £3) and £750 becomes a whole duck (2.2kg, £5.79), both from Netto.

Do you wish to respond to that before the first shift?

I could do, but nah, I have an idea on what I'd like to use them on Let's go ahead with the shift.

Right, shift we do.

£50,000 is going up...

...and it becomes £98,000!!

Do you wish to use a twist now?

No thanks, but that's given me an idea for something later on

No Deal thank you

I'll have 6, 5 and 8 please

6 - £10,000. It's a moderate upshift, so not good to lose....
5 - £100,000! That definitely isn't...
8 - 10p! But that definitely is!

No twist from the Banker here just yet, but what do you want to do?

I'd like to STABILISE please.

Ooh, that changes things... £35,000 and £98,000 both become £66,500. Any more? Banker isn't replying to this...

That will be all thank you. Let's do the shift

£1 shifts...

...upwards!

To £1.75. Hey, that'll get you more at Netto!

Any more before the offer?

Buys me a nice Viennetta from Netto! Nothing else thank you.

No Deal! I'm aiming for one number in this round...

18, 7, 10! Please give me it!
