How to play

  1. Today's idiom is hidden on the board. A new one every day.
  2. Spin the wheel (or press Space). Each spin is a turn. Where it stops:
    • Cash (£200 to £1,000): name a consonant, and win that much for each one on the board.
    • Free: the wheel picks a letter for you, and it doesn't use a turn.
    • Blank: nothing this time.
    • Bankrupt: you lose all your cash.
  3. Buy a vowel for £250 whenever you can afford one. It uses no turn.
  4. Stuck? Buy the meaning under the board for £1,000.
  5. Everyone gets the same spins in the same order each day, so it's down to your picks.
  6. Solve it whenever you think you know it: type the missing letters. A wrong guess uses a turn. After the 12th turn you get one last guess.
  7. Solving it banks your cash, plus £300 for every turn left: that's your score, more is better. Spin on for more cash, or solve early for the bonus.
  8. One go a day.
