Who Wants To Be A Millionaire is a brilliant and deceptively simple trivia game, a joy for the whole family and a challenge of wits for even the biggest brainiack. The home game dutifully captures all of the nail-biting tension and heartbreak of the series,
with a few major missteps and some slack production values that constantly remind you that it's all just a game.
To its credit, the gameplay is beat by skipped beat akin to the television show. The tension in any round of questioning couldn't be cut with a chainsaw. Thanks to the development assistance from JellyVision, who really know how to step on a man when he's down (expertise learned from several incarnations of the You Don't Know Jack game show series), every given second can be stretched and wrapped around your throat. When you're stumped on a question, Regis pipes in with jibes and cut-downs that make you wish you were back in mommy's hugging arms. Even when you lose the game, the put-downs don't stop until you're half the man you thought you were.
In my country, Germany is called the show "Wer wird Millionar" and starts on the TV on September 3, 1999 on RTL Television.
This longplay is my first passage through the game. -
