I noticed that the developers went some way to add some of the real-life nuances of Pat Sajak into his virtual avatar. The game aims at bringing the experience of the game show to that of an iDevice and it does deliver on its promise, with a single caveat.įrom the get-go you are greeted by a virtual Pat Sajak in 3D, the host of countless TV episodes of Wheel of Fortune. In conjunction with the 30th anniversary season of Wheel of Fortune, Sony Pictures Television has released a brand new iOS game and I was fortunate enough to get the opportunity to review it. Thanks to a larger than normal vocabulary (I was raised with English as my mother tongue instead of Chinese thanks to UK-educated Anglophile parents :)), it was possible to actively participate in guessing the words or phrases that appeared on screen. Shows such as Wheel of Fortune and The $1,000,000 Chance of a Lifetime where staple after-dinner fares. Back in the day, before reality T.V programmes such as American Idol and Survivor took center stage, I remember that as a child I used to watch plenty of American game shows on television.
