Gas Money.

Who wouldn’t love to play for a car with $10,000 inside the trunk?

Well, I guess if we're defining "multi-prize" games so broadly as to count a car and cash as multiple prizes, I guess Lucky Seven counts too since it awards a car and an extra $1-6...right?

In all seriousness, for actual multi-prize games...I always had a soft spot for Poker Game. I know it was way past its expiration date by the time it got retired, but the gameplay was unique, and the off-center Sportstype displays were fun.

A number of good ones, but I'd have to go with Switcheroo for multi-prize car games, and Danger Price for non-car games.

I liked Step Up, smaller prizes with cash bonuses. I wonder if they will bring it back.

Speaking of which, if you do win the car and the $10K with it, does that $10K have to literally be spent as gas money, or is Gas Money just the name of the game?

For the true multi-prize games, I consider Race Game as my favorite. I've always loved the "jukebox" prop and the number display, and it's fun to watch the contestants run around changing prices especially when they are focusing just on the game and not the audience.

Walk of Fame, Race Game, and Step Up.

Walk of Fame for it's cool setup, and fun use of the autograph books.

Race Game for it's fast crazy play.

Step Up for it's unique abaility for a player to pick the prizes they wanted of the selection and bail with some money to boot.
Plinko is the worst game the show ever made.

I have always liked Shopping Spree, not totally sure why, but I do. I know they aren't everyone's favorites, but I also enjoy Swap Meet and enjoyed Step Up before it was retired.
There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call the Twilight Zone.

Could it be because of that large green vane display used to show how much the contestant has left to spend? I know that’s why I like Shopping Spree.

I too say Walk of Fame, Race Game and Step Up but for different reasons.

Each of those games a player could win 1 or 2 prizes (possibly 3 with WOF & Step Up).

I also have a fondness for Poker Game, the game board was always one of my all time favorites, in spite of the fact that it was dated.
