ABOUT

Who Wants to be a Millionaire? is based on the ABC show hosted by Regis Philbin. It includes all three of the life lines (50:50, ask the audience, and phone a friend). A fastest finger question must be answered in a certain amount of time in order to enter the game. The engine used is very unique and user-friendly: no question of the 300+ questions will be repeated twice in a row, Regis' comments are spread throughout the game, and different question sets can be added to change the questions.



HOW TO PLAY

First, send the file million.89g to your calculator using the graph link. On the home screen, type "million\million()" and press enter to play the game. The game plays exactly like its television counterpart. For the fastest finger question press F1, F2, F3, and F4 to answer the question. Press CLEAR to erase the previous answer. When you are done, press ENTER to submit your answer.
