In this economy, who doesn’t want to be a millionaire? The Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? 2010 iPhone game ($1.99 on sale for a limited time) is a prime escape mechanism to pass the time in this down economy.
I don’t watch the show since the original host, Regis Philbin, is gone, but I love this iPhone game! The translation from television game show to iPhone game was well done. Minus the introductions with Meredith Vieira, that thankfully you can turn off by going to the options section of the iPhone game, where you can also choose to listen to your own iPod music. This iPhone game has all the features of the TV version: phone a friend, ask the audience, ask the expert and double dip.
The questions are hard, too. After hours and days of playing, I have yet to get to the million-dollar question. If you do get to the final question and win, you can brag to your Facebook friends with the handy share option. And, don’t think you can Google the answers, as the questions are timed. The game comes with a starter pack of questions and also offers a handy section to let you know how many questions you’ve gone through. Once you start repeating questions, you can upgrade by buying a new question pack for 99 cents.
