Deal or No Deal

A show with a unique format. No knowledge needed, just pure luck.

26 cases are presented with moey amounts ranging from 1 cent to $1,000,000. The player is instructed to pick one of the cases for them to keep and has to eliminate the others.

After eliminating a certain number of cases, the mysterious "Banker" calls offering a money amount based on which amounts are still on the board. The contestant is asked the popular question "Deal or No Deal?" If "Deal", the contestant gets to keep the money the banker offered. If "No Deal", the contestant continues playing the game and eliminating cases.

When two cases are left, the player has the choice of switching their case for the one remaining on the stage.
