Reviews of Deal Or No Deal: Electronic Pocket Game

A wicked handheld game based on the Channel four daytime show. Despite the fact that the two things that make the show so great (Noel Edmunds and the reality of winning a large sum of money) are missing from this it is still an addictive toy that is hard to put down.

First of all you choose your box number from the 22 available and start randomly picking numbers. Each time you “open” the red box it reveals the amount you have just taken out of the game. After five goes you get your first deal from the banker, you then press the tick to accept or cross to carry on. Whenever you take up the offer you can always reveal what you always had in your original box.

Just like the show you can swap the boxes over when you have just two left. The buttons that you select your box numbers with our touch screen and the numbers dissapear as and when you take them out.

It’s so easy to start playing that there is a brief instruction booklet to read before you start, and my wife even commented that it fits nicely into her handbag! Great stuff.
