Million Dollar Mind Game / Video Game Geeks
The acclaimed American version of the most popular and well-known TV intellectual game “What? Where? When? ”, Which in the American version is called“ Million Dollar Mind Game ”(“ Intellectual game for a million dollars ”) finally saw the light. The game format has been significantly changed.
The feelings of the Russian-speaking viewers are very contradictory (which you can read about in the blogosphere), while the Americans, judging by the comments on American websites, really liked it, there is practically no negative.
I present to the attention of habrazhitel the game "computer games development team".

Rules of the game under the cut.
In each team, which is given the right to sit at the gaming table, as we have, 6 people (one of the working names of the program is “The Six Minds”). Questions are asked in turn, without any choice of a top, RNG or other mechanism / person. Each question costs from 6 thousand dollars to 1 million. Like us, there is a minute to think and even 3 bonuses:
After each question, the team can take the earned money and stop participating - a vote is taken for this (this part of the game is somehow incomprehensible to me - it could well have been to shift the decision onto the cap's shoulders). After each question there is a change of captain - he must give the answer to the question on which he is the captain. Well, it is allowed to make 3 mistakes per game (at the same time, a new question of the same level will be asked), the fourth one is not forgiven.
PS By the way, Vladimir Voroshilov (creator of ChGK), Natalya Stetsenko (Voroshilov's wife, general director of igr-tv, producing the current teleGGK) and Boris Kryuk (the leading Russian teleGGK at the moment) are mentioned in the credits as creators.

- additional 30 seconds to discuss;
- replacing the issue with another of the same level;
- Replacing the captain’s response with any of the team’s players on your own.
