Dunno Rudy, Plinko is the obvious choice, but I'm not even sure it would be my #1. Mountain Climber is awesome, and the car game where you are on the big
number board and you have to move up, down, right or left each step.
I've watched this show my whole life, but I honestly can't think of more than 10 or so games right now. WTF? |

99) Mystery Price
This game is so confusing! I recommend watching it to see how confusing it is. I don't get the bidding, the bank, or the purpose of the small prizes. I'm glad it was retired early cuz it was BAD. But the game board is sorta cool. |

Personally, I always hated Plinko because of just how random it was. I mean, you could drop the chip in the very top slot and wind up in a zero on the far end
of the board.

98) Double Digits
This game is so confusing! I still don't understand this game that much. Granted the game Temptation is similar, but the concept of�Temptation is easier to grasp than this travesty (which was put to rest after only a few playings). |

That Mystery Price game actually seems very good. The others have been atrocious.

97) Telephone Game
There is no known video of Telephone Game out there because 1) it was only played for a few times in 1978 and 2) it was only played on episodes where fur coats were offered and those were banned from being rebroadcasted on GSN by Bob Barker. I'll try to explain this game as best as I can. It's played for a car. First, the player must "purchase" 2 grocery items out of 4 that are under a dollar. If they go over a dollar, they don't get to play for the car. If they stay under a dollar, they are given a "phone book" with 3 numbers that correspond either to the price of the car (in dollars) or the price of 2 other small prizes (in dollars and cents, the decimal point was omitted in the phone book). The contestant dials the number they think matches the car. Models Dian, Janice, and Holly would wait for their phone to ring and tell the contestant, "Congratulations, you won the _______!" This game was stupid. The first part of the game has no point. The telephone part was kinda interesting, though. Since there's no video for Telephone Game, that means I'll post another game! 96) Clearance Sale I hate this game because it's the exact same game as Eazy az 1-2-3, only without the cute blocks and with bland price tags. This game shouldn't exist. It's premise had already existed about 6-7 years before. |

Wow, that guy in the clearance sale video has gotta be one of the most apathetic contestants in the show's history. |

95) Time is Money
This game hasn't been played in a while. I'm assuming it's retired. That would be great. 15 seconds is not enough time to play this game during it's first round. Who can make proper decisions in those time in front of cameras and a studio audience? This game always left a bad taste in my mouth. |

94) Bullseye (1972 version)
This is a totally different version of the game Bullseye that was only played during the first month of the show. Everyone who played the game lost. Go figure: they only had�7 chances to pick a number from a range of 500-1000 numbers. |

No one has ever won. Although they did turn this game into a 2-player format, but that game will show up sooner than later.

92) Gallery Game
What a cheesy idea! This game is really lame. There is one part of the number already revealed, which makes playing the game really easy based on the prize up for grabs. Surprisingly, this game lasted for a couple of years in the late 80s-early 90s. |

91) That's Too Much!
There's only a 10% chance the contestant can win the game. The odds of winning are pretty low even though there's a good enough space between the prices. This set suffers from too much pastel just like On The Spot did. I don't see this game lasting to the 40th year, IMHO. |

Any Number, Push Over, and One Away are my favorite games. <3
Plinko and Cliff Hangers, on the other hand, are vastly overrated. |
