Spingo

**SpinGo** is an interactive game show on TV5. Hosted by "Heneral" John Arcilla with "SpinGorgeous Girl" Sam Coloso, it premiered on September 11, 2023. The show concluded on December 8, 2023 with a total of 65 episodes. It was replaced by Celebrity Samurai in its timeslot.

## Format

The show has three main rounds and a jackpot round. At the start of each of the main rounds, each contestant/pair has to roll a ball that will fall to one portion of the roulette, called the "Spingo Wheel". Each portion is labelled with different cash prizes, ranging from ₱1,000 to ₱50,000. During the main trivia portions of each round, the three contestants answer general knowledge questions to collect numbered balls from 1 to 45. A ball is collected with every correct answer given, and each round ends when one contestant gains the required number of balls.

### Round 1

Balls are randomly selected when a contestant buzzes in. Every question has two choices. The first to collect four balls wins the round and receives ₱3,000.

 **₱1,000** | 2

### Round 2

The contestants select the number but the first to buzz in gets to answer. Every question has three choices. If a contestant gets a question wrong, others may steal. The first to collect five balls wins this round and receives ₱5,000.

 **₱5,000** | 3

### Round 3

Quickfire round where the randomizer is back to select numbers. Each question is a fill-in-the-blank statement. Contestants must now fill in the remaining slots on their podium with balls, including those missed from the previous rounds, as well as six more slots in the third column of each podium. The first to collect all 15 balls moves on to the Final Round and receives ₱7,000.

 **₱10,000** | 3

### Final Round

The finalist has 60 seconds to answer a question and earn the cash value for each letter of S-P-I-N-G-O. The answers to each question start with the letter associated to that question (for instance, the question "What word that starts with 'S' is the Tagalog word for an ice cream vendor?" has the answer "**s**orbetero"). Each question answered is worth ₱10,000, for a total of ₱60,000.

#### Final Spin

At the end of the Final Round, the finalist goes for the Final Spin where the entire amount in the prize pot either gets multiplied or deducted. Each value has exactly one wedge.

The maximum prize that can be won in one episode is ₱1,465,000, by landing the ball on the highest value wedges in every spin, winning every round, answering all questions in the Final Round correctly, and landing the ball on the ×10 wedge on the Final Spin.
