The game started out with two players, and a qualifying round where general knowledge questions were asked as tossups. $1,000 was awarded for a correct answer and deducted for a wrong answer or running out of time; also, the question had to be completed before an answer was allowed. The first player to score $8,000 moved on to the isolation booth.
As with the original $64,000 Question, the remaining questions were on one subject of the player's choosing. At this point, the player was shown two sub-categories, picked one, and was asked a $16,000 question which consisted of a multiple-choice question with three possible answers. The player could not bail and had to try to answer the question within 30 seconds. This was repeated with the $32,000 question (with four choices) and $64,000 (with five choices). Correctly answering the $64,000 question meant that the player was guaranteed at least that much money.
At this point, the sub-category choice was removed and questions were no longer multiple-choice. The $128,000 level was a two-part question, followed by $256,000 and three parts, then $512,000 and four parts, and finally $1,024,000 with six parts (of which only five needed to be answered correctly). The time limit remained at 30 seconds throughout and, despite the questions becoming progressively more complex, was for the entirety of each question rather than being for each individual part.
