I did have the GameTek WOF ... but I also had a couple of others, and I don't remember the one I hacked having only four colors. It looked fairly realistic for the time. The players didn't look like cartoons. But it was a long time ago, so my memory is foggy. That may have been it.

I think this might be the 1994 or so "deluxe" edition of the game. I "hacked" the category graphics by changing the letter set color in paint.
Has anyone ever found a game that is similar enough to Smush with material that could be used to DIY a version of the game show?
Bumping this one up from the depths. If you'd like to make some big dice with customized sides for Let 'Em Roll, The Big Showdown, or whatever else you have in mind, these foam cubes from Dollar Tree are an affordable and simple way to do it. The description says they're 2.25" on a side, but that's actually the diameter of the dry-erase circle - the cubes are about 3". Now, if you wanted to go that extra step, Avery sells sheets of glossy white circular printer labels that are 2" in diameter, making for a nice fit.https://www.dollartree.com/Teaching-Tree-Dry-Erase-Foam-Blocks/p370932/index.pro
