feature a single- and multiplayer mode for up to four players. Many of the
classic pricing challenges that viewers have known and loved for generations,
such as "Plinko,” "Three Strikes,” "Hole in One,” and "Cliffhanger” will also be

"Punch-A-Bunch.” The voice of announcer Rich Fields, actual sounds and music
from the show, and classic video footage will ensure an authentic experience for
