I can't tell what is supposed to be 'junior' about this edition of the game. The puzzles don't seem to be any easier or different than what shows up <a href="https://youtu.be/HahALvfKLVk?t=7m28s">on the real show</a>  what seems like all the time.</p> <p>The cynic in me wants to think that the Powers That Be (well, the Powers That Were) slapped Junior Edition on the title screen and the box, added some puzzles cut from the original release, made no other changes, and then shoved this game out into the world to generate a few extra bucks.</p> <p>But no company would do something like that, right?</p> </div> <span rel="schema:author" class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><span lang="" about="https://8bit.fun/index.php/user/1" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype="" xml:lang="">b</span></span> <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2018-05-24T12:01:22+00:00" class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden">Thu, 05/24/2018 - 07:01</span> <div class="field field--name-field-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-above clearfix"> <h3 class="field__label">Tags</h3> <ul class="links field__items"><li><a href="https://8bit.fun/index.php/taxonomy/term/42" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">spoiler alert</a></li> <li><a href="https://8bit.fun/index.php/taxonomy/term/48" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">wheel of fortune</a></li> <li><a href="https://8bit.fun/index.php/taxonomy/term/39" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">nes</a></li> </ul></div> <section rel="schema:comment" class="field field--name-comment field--type-comment field--label-above comment-wrapper"></section><div class="field field--name-field-categories field--type-entity-reference field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Categories</div> <div class="field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://8bit.fun/index.php/blog" hreflang="en">Blog</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://8bit.fun/index.php/taxonomy/term/42" hreflang="en">spoiler alert</a></div> </div> </div> Thu, 24 May 2018 12:01:22 +0000 b 33 at https://8bit.fun https://8bit.fun/index.php/node/32 <span property="schema:name" class="field field--name-title field--type-string field--label-hidden">Spoiler Alert! - Wheel of Fortune Junior Edition - Single Player</span> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Since I'm known in some circles (including my grandmother's kitchen) as a bit of a Wheel of Fortune aficionado, I figured I'd try my luck at Wheel of Fortune Junior Edition.</p> <p><iframe allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/Dvtp4YgT0sE?rel=0" width="560"></iframe></p> <p>I warmed up by playing single player mode and... it didn't go as well as I hoped it might.
