#### Question Rounds

The contestant began by choosing a maximum amount of envelopes for each round.

After picking the envelopes, the contestant will be faced a series of multiple-choice general knowledge trivia questions of increasing difficulty (for one per envelope), The question will be revealed and then the contestant will pick an envelope and will show how much money they will play for and the four possible answers will appear (For each question there are four options to choose from, labelled ‘A’, ‘B’, ‘C’ and ‘D’). A correct answer meant they will keep it and open the envelope on how much money he or she will win for a correct answer attached to the question. However, one wrong answer meant that the player will to the envelope's destruction in the paper shredder, along with any potential money it held.

At the end of each round, the contestants had the chance to earn monetary guaranteed milestone sums. For passing the first round, a guaranteed Ð1,000 was awarded. If they passed the second round, Ð10,000 awaited them. Finally, for passing the third round, they would secure a whopping Ð100,000.

After each of the three rounds, A cordless telephone on the podium rings and the host answers it to speak with "The Banker" (an element from the show *Deal or No Deal*). The call ends, and the host relays the Banker's offer to buy the contestant's envelope with a written paycheck inside (unless it is guaranteed at some point). The contestant can accept that offer to end the game or reject that offer to continue with the game.

If the contestant found himself or herself answers all questions incorrectly and shredded all envelopes in play at anytime after each one of the three rounds, the game would end immediately and the contestant will leave empty-handed unless he or she is guaranteed with that much money.

There are aid forms of assistance that can help the contestant throughout the main game, even if they get stuck on making a decision or having trouble on a particular question.

#### Risk Round

After all multiple-choice trivia questions have been answered correctly in three main rounds, the contestant moved on to the risk round of six open-ended trivia questions, the contestant had to choose between keeping their current winnings or opening one of the remaining 7 envelopes for each question.

Each envelope had the potential to either double the contestant's money or cut it in half. The contestant carefully considered their options, weighing the potential reward against the potential loss. Ultimately, they decided to open one of the envelopes.

However, making a wrong decision by blowing all the envelopes left while providing wrong answers at anytime in the final round would cause a premature end to the contestant’s game and the contestant would still leave the guaranteed sums of money.

If a contestant successfully answers all multiple-choice questions correctly in 3 main rounds, including the smaller amount of questions in risk round while selecting all envelopes, a contestant can theoretically and automatically take possession of a single envelope worth a maximum top prize of Ð1,000,000.
