Wheel of Fortune Instructions

HOW TO PLAY. If the letter appears at least once in the hidden puzzle phrase, you get points. On any turn, you can also buy a vowel. In this version of Wheel of Fortune, you must solve the puzzle completely by selecting letters (you can't "solve" the phrase if there are still blanks).

Score, bonus, round score, and total score are displayed along the left. The point value of the current turn is shown in the angled box on the left.

Play Wheel of Fortune online for three rounds and see how high a score you can get. When you are finished, click the Reset button to start over with three new rounds of phrases.

A CORRECTION. An astute visitor brought to my attention an error in one of the Wheel of Fortune puzzles. According to Leah C.,

Dont Worry Be Happy is by Bobby McFerrin not Bob Marley. The confusion may stem from the fact that Bob Marley did a song called Three Little Birds that said "don't worry about a thing" in the chorus.

Many thanks to Leah for pointing that out.

MISCELLANEOUS WHEEL OF FORTUNE HISTORY. After you play Wheel of Fortune online, check out these interesting facts about the Wheel of Fortune TV show from Wikipedia:

  • The original version of the American game show Wheel of Fortune was created by Merv Griffin and aired on NBC from January 6, 1975 to June 30, 1989. It moved to CBS from July 17, 1989 to January 11, 1991 and back to NBC on January 14, 1991 until September 20, 1991 when it was canceled for good.
  • When the series began the minimum value on the wheel was $25 and the top dollar value was $500 in Round One, $750 in Round Two, and $1,000 for each round after that.
  • From 1986 to 1988, a "Jackpot" space was placed on the wheel in Round Three. The jackpot began at $1,000 and increased by that amount each day until won.
  • The series' original pilot had a bonus round called "Shopper's Special" in which the contestant would play for the prize they had selected before the show, with the bonus puzzle spelling out that prize.
  • By 1986, the show had the highest ratings of any syndicated television series in history.
  • Pat Sajak, a former weatherman, has hosted the syndicated Wheel of Fortune since its 1983 inception. Co-host and letter-turner Vanna White also continued her role from the daytime version.
  • The current version of Wheel of Fortune does not count the daytime series as part of its history or episode count, declining to recognize that the game has aired continuously on television since 1975.

It's fun to play Wheel of Fortune online without the pressure of being on TV. I hope you enjoyed it!
