Game Show Home Games/Video Games Thread

Yesterday evening, I was shopping in my area's Dollar General store, when I found this item in the toy/game aisle:

Not very much to it, and although the website entry shows no price, this products was marked $15!

On Tuesday's WOF (10/14), towards the end, Ryan showed a home game with his picture on the box.

I am rather surprised that Vanna White is not pictured along with Seacrest.

Over the past weekend, I bought the "2 in 1," WOF/PCJ! game.  The WOF part is a virtual clone of the last "Game Box," version from Imagination Gaming (I don't know whether or not the company is still operating).  The PCJ! is a virtual clone of the version published by Igloo Books.

I also bought the 7th edition by Pressman.  What caught my eye, after opening it up. The box bottom's aprons showed what appeared to be phrases shown on puzzle board grids instead of just the side aprons WOF logo.  The fully exposed messages were:

STAY CALM AND PLAY WHEEL
I'D LIKE TO BUY A VOWEL
I'D LIKE TO SOLVE THE PUZZLE
COME ON BIG MONEY

Saw an add on Instagram for these folks:

They also have a CatchPhrase game.

They've also just released Million Dollar Money Drop, which seems to play a halfway decent game, although it's a bit weird having the US set and UK theme - also the questions are fairly UK-centric, I don't know if that's a feature of playing in the UK or what. Also it hung up on me halfway through. Still, I would suggest it's more successful than their version of DoND.
