Ten winners will be flown to New York City per episode and will compete against each other in a playoff question. The playoff winner then gets the chance to navigate 15 multiple choice questions on a broad range of topics. Contestants can choose to walk away at any time with what they've won so far. But, if they have the courage to go for it, they could become an instant millionaire. Under acute pressure, the contestant gets to make one phone call live from the studio to a friend or family member, who has 30 seconds to process the multiple choice question and come up with the right answer.
Calls are limited to ONE CALL per person per day.
When selecting tape dates, please be advised that relatives, friends, and acquaintances may not compete against each other on the same episode of the on-air program. No purchase necessary. Each question has multiple answers that must be placed in the correct order based on instructions given in the question. Players who answer a question incorrectly or do not answer within the time specified will be told that they have not qualified to advance in the Contest and the call will be terminated. Players may qualify only once as a Semifinalist for each Tape Date and specific episode, if applicable.
