DVD Description

The Deal or No Deal Family Challenge [Interactive DVD] invites you and your family to enter the money-making dream factory. If you've ever watched "Deal Or No Deal" at home, wondering how you'd fair in the crazy chair, then this is your chance to find out. Now you can play at home with your family and friends to beat The Banker--if you make the right deal at the right time that is! On this interactive DVD host Noel Edmonds guides you through each stage of the game, but along the way you can ask advice from your favourite contestants from the show, ask The Banker a question, request an insightful poem, or try out the brand new lucky dip feature. It's your show, it's your game... but have you got what it takes to beat The Banker?

Synopsis

The hit TV show "Deal or No Deal" revolves around a nail-biting game in which contestants are given a sealed box containing an undisclosed sum of cash. They then have the option of either making a deal with The Banker and taking the cash in their box home, or opening up to 22 new boxes which each contain a different amount; one of these boxes contains a quarter of a million pounds! The Banker's aim is to make a deal with the contestant which will ensure they walk away with the least amount of money possible. The aim of the contestant is to hold out until they open that dream box containing a quarter of a million pounds. By process of elimination contestants must decide whether to accept the Banker's offer, or be a bit more daring and play on until they hit (or miss) the jackpot!

Customer Reviews

Much more addictive and BETTER than the last one!
Yes, we all were hoping this DOND DVD would be a very big improvement on last years slow, groggy, dull and cheap seeming version.

And guess what. It actually was!

This version is much MUCH more better than last years, the box opening is now much more quicker, you could get from box 1 to 22 in ORDER (not by going straight back to 22) in about 10 seconds.

The graphics, offers and interaction is much better aswell. Last years was pretty boring with the white background and long LONG intervals between box openings and reactions etc and yes it's still A LITTLE slow but it IS faster than last years, JUST about bearable.

The new options like lucky dip and ask the banker are just great.
Lucky Dip has over 30 different scenes filmed in the studio where one is picked at random and given to you, my first one was a bookmark from the banker saying "Next Member of the 1p Club", but other variations are available. Ask the Banker lets you choose a question such as "Where Do Babies Come From" and await the banker's reply. Banker's poems are also a new feature.

And of course the clips available! They are just hilarious.
5/5, much improved, don't be put off by last years AT ALL.

Better then the first one
The first dvd did not fare well with reviewers and with good reason- it was mostly awful. This one, on the other hand was really enjoyable and my whole family really got into it on Christmas day. This makes a good present or is great to own. Worth the money!

Good Game But Uninspiring
This is OK for a bit of fun but I found that I easily got bored with it, I'm sure that kiddies and two or more players would get more out of it than a single user. One of the main drivers for the great popularity of this on TV is that someone actually wins real money by the gambles they take. However, transfer this to your lounge on your own telly with no cash at the end and there is disappointment. In fact the last game I played I picked boxes in numerical order purely because it wouldn't make any difference to the outcome of the game as they seem to be pre-programmed and there is still no cash. I have given the game 3 stars because it is quite good but not great but I would give it 5 stars for the graphic qualities and looking as much like the real program as possible.
