Wheel of Fortune is the classic hangman inspired game show we all know and love, this time on the Playstation console.

Similar to Family Feud, the game consists of playing through the rounds with FMV scenes featuring Vanna White. Pat Sajak is nowhere to be found sadly. The game is pretty basic, with only a one to three player game available or a solo mode, but it claims to have over 2000 puzzles which should keep you occupied.

I'm playing the standard 15 minute game which will play as many rounds as it takes to hit the 15 minute mark which will then prompt the final spin. There are also 10 or 20 minute versions of this game. You can also choose to play a guaranteed 3, 4 or 5 round game if that's more to your liking.

The background cycles between Las Vegas, Hawaii, Paris, Holland and Desert backdrops that don't seem to affect the prizes at all. The second round will add a prize, and the third round adds a jackpot which will be available for the rest of the game. The final round will have you choosing a letter that determines your prize if you can solve the puzzle.

All in all it's a pretty quick and fun game, but I feel other versions of the game are superior. The voiceovers and FMVs are pretty fun but aren't mixed well in the game and sometimes are cut off prematurely.
