Following the success of Deal or No Deal, Ladbrokes Games are turning to another popular TV quiz show to encourage gamers to visit their site. Hosted by original host Roy Walker you are invited to step forward and play Catchphrase online. The game play follows the TV series. You are given a Catchphrase puzzle and then have to say what you see. You can win cash prizes by getting the answer right. You must answer within a time limit too, although in demo play there didn't seem to be any way to actually answer the questions! You can also play for a progressive jackpot by collecting the catchphrase symbols!
There's some interesting points in the terms and conditions for Catchphrase at Ladbrokes Games - "The maximum payout for Catchphrase in any 24-hour period to any individual customer (including any other person accessing the Catchphrase Game using your user identification) or to any group of customers acting together is £100,000". Perhaps Ladbrokes are worried that groups of Catchphrase fanatics may break the bank?
In truth though, this isn't that an exciting game and perhaps is better suited for "group play"! It lacks the suspense of Deal or No Deal and with other games like Family Fortunes rumoured to be just around the corner at Jackpotjoy then Catchphrase could well end up as Dead as.... "a chicken" (It's good... but it's not right).
