Expanded Versions of Wheel of Fortune
2.80 average rating based on 5 ratings
I am on a journey to beat 360 random Xbox 360 games. Here is my next adventure.
Game number 11 was Wheel of Fortune. This is a game that adapts the titular game show for the Xbox 360. It is essentially an elaborate version of Hang Man. There are a bunch of blank spaces that form together to create a word/phrase and you guess letters until you figure out what the word/phrase is.
This game doesn't really have a story mode or anything, so my criteria for beating it was just to win a game.
The gameplay works well, for the most part, and allows a person to play Wheel of Fortune themselves and/or with friends. I don't really like Wheel of Fortune (I was always more of a Jeopardy guy myself), but the game is serviceable.
There was a game breaking glitch during my second match. I clicked on the screen to show me the letters that have already been guessed and it didn't go away. This prevented me from guessing the puzzle or buying vowels and I was pretty frustrated with it. Having a game breaking glitch in 1 of only 2 games that I played was not …

After winning games, you can purchase new backgrounds and stuff, but it wasn't really a whole lot of incentive to stick around.
In conclusion, this is Wheel of Fortune. If you like the game show and want to play it yourself then, by all means, buy this title; however, everyone else is not missing out. This is a textbook 2.5/5, but the game breaking glitch is bringing it down to a 2/5 for me. (2/5)
I spent 59 minutes and 46 seconds playing Wheel of Fortune.
I have spent a total of 133 hours and 3 minutes on the Road To 360 challenge so far.
