If you successfully buy a vowel, you don1t score any cash, but it is still your turn and the puzzle is that much closer to being solved.ĭuring any of your turns, you may choose to solve the puzzle before or after you guess a letter correctly. If you guess a consonant correctly in the puzzle, you score points and get to continue spinning. If the wheel does land on any one of the dollar amounts, you can either try to buy a vowel (if you have accumulated at least $250 in the current round) or guess a consonant. Standing before a wall of hidden letters which will eventually spell out one of more than 4,000 phrases, places, things, or events, you must spin a giant wheel (which is pictured on another screen) and hope the pointer lands on a high dollar amount. (In the current rendition (1999) of the show, she merely touches a letter to make it visible.)
Based on the famous television game show, Wheel of Fortune: Deluxe Edition stars a digitized version of Vanna White, the lovely woman on the program whose job is to turn the letters on the game board.
