001-General Information
-----------------------------------------------------------
This is a walkthrough for the Gameboy game called Wheel of
Fortune. You can e-mail me at
[email protected]
but make the subject blank if you do.
I may have missed some answers, so let me know if you find
one of them.
Thanks to Kitsukage1 for finding an answer I missed!
002-How to Play
-----------------------------------------------------------
Okay, start the game. Wheel of Fortune is usually played
by three people, but in this game only two can play. You
get to choose which kind of player setup you want; you can
play by yourself (1), play by yourself but against a
computer opponent (1 VS COMP), or you can play against a
friend (2).
Once you've chosen this, the game starts. The players must
enter their names in. Choose what you want your name to
be, using DEL to delete a letter. If you're playing against
the COMP, you don't choose a name.
Once the names are chosen, player one is up. On the board
will be a bunch of blank spaces. Each space represents a
letter; your job is figure out what the whole thing says
before someone else does.
You can spin the wheel (choose spin), and the wheel of
fortune spins (move left or right to choose how far you
want to spin). It will land on a number. You get to
choose a letter (not a vowel). If that letter is one of
the letters in the answer, spaces will flip and the letters
appear in place. The number you got was the number of
dollars you get for each correct answer.
If you chose a letter that is not on the board, it will be
your opponent's turn.
Besides numbers, there are three other things on the wheel.
One is bankrupt; land on this and all your money goes away.
Another is lose turn; land on this and your turn
automatically ends. The last is free spin; get this and
the next time your turn ends, you can use it to continue
the turn.
Now, once you have some money, you can choose to buy a
vowel. The board will show all of the times a certain
vowel (of your choice) shows up on the board.
Once you're pretty sure what the answer is, you can solve.
Fill in all of the blanks with what you think is the
correct answer. If you're right, the round is over.
On round three, the host spins the wheel. The number he
gets is a set number; there will be no spinning of the
wheel after this. That's because this is a "speed" round.
If you get a letter correct, you get a short while to solve
the puzzle if you want. You don't buy vowels in this
round; you choose them just like the other letters.
The person who got the most dollars in all of the previous
rounds gets to go to the final round. Here's the drill:
you get to choose a vowel and five consonants. If they are
on the board, they will appear. You then have to solve the
puzzle. If not, you don't win the fabulous prize, which is
a shame.
