''The $100,000 Fortune Hunt'' is an Illinois Lottery game show which debuted on September 16, 1989, and aired on Saturday evenings from 1989-1994 on WGN-TV in Chicago〔, Retrieved 2013--06-04.〕 (except for 1 year in 1993 when it aired on WBBM-TV); it was also broadcast on WGN's national satellite feed. Jeff Coopwood hosted the first season, with the rest of the run being hosted by Mike Jackson.〔, Retrieved 2013-06-04.〕 Linda Kollmeyer served as the hostess〔, Retrieved 2013-06-04〕 during the entire run with Bill Barber as the announcer. ==Gameplay== Potential contestants purchased a ''$100,000 Fortune Hunt'' scratch-off ticket from an Illinois Lottery retailer. To play the "$100,000 Fortune Hunt" players rub off the play area on the lottery instant ticket. If three matching prize amounts are revealed, the player wins the prize shown-such as a free ticket or up to $100. If three TV symbols appear, players can submit the ticket to the lottery for a preliminary drawing. This drawing will be held every week in Springfield.〔 At this first stage each week, six on-air contestants and 12 at-home viewers will be selected from the preliminary drawing of entry tickets and asked to participate in the "$100,000 Fortune Hunt". Only the first six contestants will appear on the TV show and have the opportunity to win the grand prize or other prizes. Two of the 12 at-home viewers are assigned to each of the six on-air contestants as partners.〔 While one of the six who appear on the game show will win the grand prize, his or her two home "partners" will win $500 each. Each of the remaining five on-air contestants will receive at least $1,500, and their partners will receive $100. During the TV show, the six contestants will face a game board with 36 numbered panels. Each panel will reveal a plus or minus dollar amount; players will try to accumulate the most money by randomly selecting panels. There will be special panels such as bankrupt, lose a turn, wipeout, and double. The player who collects the highest prize amount after five rounds is declared the winner and receives the $100,000 grand prize.〔 The other five, one at a time, are then given a choice to keep their total winnings or trade them for a choice of prizes (hidden behind 12 numbered panels). These range from cash amounts totaling between $1,000 and $10,000 to prizes such as an entire living room set. At the end of each show, hostess Kollmeyer drew six tickets at random from a revolving drum. The players who purchased those tickets were selected as the contestants for the next show. Other spaces included: *Bankrupt: The player who selected it lost his or her entire score; space was signified by a dollar sign in a circle with a line crossing over it. *Double: If the player uncovered a Double space, he or she immediately picked another number off the gameboard, winning double the amount revealed. *Lose a Turn The player who selected it earns no money in the turn only. *Free Turn: The player who selected it earned a Free Turn token which the player may redeem at any time for an additional selection from the board. *Car: The player who selected it could accept a brand new car and resign from the game or pass on the car and continue. Later in the show's run, the car symbol was split in half and hidden behind two numbers; players had to find both the front and back halves to claim the car (if desired). *Wipeout: If the player selected it is kicked out of the game and leaves with only $1,000. At the end of the game, the player in the lead won $100,000. During the final season, the winner returned the following Saturday, up to five weeks. If the game ends in a tie, another round is played against the tied players. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「$100,000 Fortune Hunt」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
