Revive one pricing game...

[aaron sica]

Inspired by Jeremy's awesome post about modifying a pricing game, here's the scenario I came up with:

You are tasked to pick and revive a pricing game that the show has long retired. However, it needs also to be modified as well to reflect the changing times (i.e. "It's Optional" was retired because all of those options eventually were all standard). What would you do?

Revive "Superball!!" but instead of having the rings worth money or a win, have each ring give a different number of "tickets" that a contestant can redeem for each of the prizes. For instance, the rings could be worth 1, 2, and 3 tickets, with the prizes worth 3, 6, and 9 (and the Superball being worth triple).

I think that just about every game save double bullseye could be revived either unchanged or with a small  tweak. To that end I’m noodling converting Professor Price into Class Action and Phone Home Game into Social Climber.

Turning Telephone Game into The Swipe is Right

First half is figuring out which small item is expensive enough to pay for the arbitrary subscription fee to the "dating app".

Second half is looking on a giant smartphone through "profiles" of the car that include a potential price and figuring out which has the real price. Wrong profiles may or may not be $200-$300 prizes in disguise.

You could change the rules to make it more like Car Pong/5 Price Tags in that you can earn multiple attempts at the car in the first half until you miss; or you can get rid of the first half entirely and just have it be the car part.

Although Rat Race exists I’d love to see Hurdles return with a similar mechanism but using a new version of the original board.

that would certainly make the race harder if the runner suffers a hot lead enema.

Considering what almost happened to Bob a few months before they nixed the game, I'm sure there are a few fanbois who'd love to try that with Drew.

Bump...using a Bumper Car motif and letting the contestant push the bumper car.  Or in this electronic age, have mechanical cars that would bump each other  back and forth for a few seconds before they settle on the correct prices, bumping the incorrect car off the track.

I always loved Super Saver, a fun grocery item game that required a little luck and a lot of pricing savvy.

Penny Ante. It's a fun, quick game that allows more time for longer pricing games.

I would bring back Super Ball, but make it an all cash game to speed it along. The three rings would be $500, $1,000 and $2,500. Have four products, each with a ball for the player to toss. Last ball is worth triple. The maximum amount that could be won is $15,000, if all four balls go in the $2,500 ring.

I.....was not expecting this picture and now my keyboard has red wine all over it.
