Or whatever its called. New game, £1 a pop. All on sport funnily enough.

I had 2 goes and made £2 - getting to £2 each time. The picture rounds are mainly very easy, and i found it pretty fair. You get the option to collect your prize after seeing the question which is good.....can see there being good mileage in this one as must pub-goers like a bit of sport. Extra salary for all you guys here i should think.

Or alternatively this looks to me like another Monopoly - possibly attractive to punters as it's relatively easy and is familiar in subject matter but of no interest to more regular players as the games will simply be too long and it looks like it can stretch the prize grid out to marathon proportions (pun intended).

Having it at £1 a go (with no 50p version) is interesting however, as this surely acts as a disincentive to casual players. I'd always prefer £1 a go if the potential prizes are higher - as with Celebrity Millionaire - but there is at least one game out at the moment (the latest Blockbusters game) where the £1 game is much less lucrative than the 50p version virtually everywhere - even in virgin mode it only seems to offer a JP of two quid more than the 50p game (£12 vs £10).

Yeah i can't see it offering you megabucks, but an extra quid or three in the pocket isn't a bad thing. Doesn't take long to get either. 8)

Updated ItBoxes - one of the two games in the middle of the front screen, you can't miss it.

This one is definitely a marathon not a sprint, with the key difference being that on most marathons someone in a Spoiler t-shirt doesn't jump out of the crowd to trip you up and end your race.

Fingers crossed this one is off the front screen and replaced by something better before you can "We're not going to Kirkby".

:wink:
