Other game shows with rules comparable to Wheel of Fortune include Jeopardy!, Who Wants to be a Millionaire, and You Don't Say!. Like Wheel, they forbid peeking at answers, receiving outside assistance, and stalling to prolong the game.
Jeopardy! bans looking at topic choices before selecting a question, and consulting references during play. On Millionaire, polling the audience or taking excessive time between lifeline options is prohibited. You Don't Say! does not allow competitors to repeat phrases, ask for clues, speak in unison, or stall by claiming “you don't say!” was unclear.
These shows aim to judge contestants on knowledge and quick-wittedness alone. No trickery or impropriety that might give one player an unfair edge will be tolerated. Victory must come through brain, not bravado, on any reputable game of skill and chance.
