SPECIAL WHEEL SEGMENTS
Some wheel segments have a special dollar amount or no dollar amounts associated with
them. Following is an explanation of these special wheel segments.
FREE SPIN – This segment is active in Round 1 and Round 2. If you land on this segment,
and you choose a consonant that appears in the puzzle, it will be awarded to you.The
screen will display YOU WON A FREE SPIN rather than a dollar amount. You keep control
of the wheel and continue your turn. Later in your turn, if you guess an incorrect letter,
the unit will automatically prompt you to USE YOUR FREE SPIN. As with any of the
regular segments, if the letter you choose is NOT in the puzzle, you do not get the
FREE SPIN.
There is only one FREE SPIN available per round. Once any player wins it, it is unavailable
for the rest of the round.
EXAMPLE:You spin and land on FREE SPIN.You guess the letter“R.”It appears
twice in the puzzle. Because of this you get awarded the FREE SPIN.You spin again
and guess the letter“Y.” This does not appear in the puzzle. Normally, this would
mean that your turn is over. However, since you have a FREE SPIN, you keep control
of the wheel until you guess another incorrect letter.
LOSE A TURN –This segment is active in Round 1, Round 2 and Round 3. If you land
on this segment, your turn is over and play moves to the next player.
BANKRUPT –This segment is active in Round 1, Round 2 and Round 3. If you land on
this segment, you lose all money you have accumulated in the round. Also, your turn is
over and play moves to the next player.

$10,000 – In Round 3 , there is a $10,000 segment. Once a player wins this prize

of the round.
