The Chase
A new SWP on a type of unit I've never seen before.
The game itself is a pretty good copy of the actual show.
You start with a round where it asks you questions to build up your money. You get a minute and 25p for every question you answer correctly. Each wrong answer generates a penalty of 5 seconds. I suspect when it's ready to pay the questions are easier meaning you build up a higher win.
You then take on "The Chaser" in a straight multiple choice round AFTER he's offered you the chance to take a step nearer home (with whatever you've won in Round 1) or a step nearer him/her. Like in the show the money reduces or increases. You also APPEAR to get the chance to go two nearer the chaser for again what appears to be a maximum win of £5.00.
If you win that you then it looks like you get the chance to play against the chaser ostensibly by answering as many questions as you can with him then answering questions except that isn't quite what happens in practice. You get a target to beat which, to all intents and purposes, is the number that the chaser would get right. Presumably this target reduces over time.
It was quite entertaining and I'm sure the punters will play because they've seen the game on TV.
Personally I don't like the £5.00 max win (although it's better than a £3.00 on that barman game) or the fact that the machine controls the number of questions you need to beat the target.
If it is on test I wouldn't be surprised to see it rolled out across the country soon...

Sex is not the answer.

"Yes" is the answer!
