Press Your Luck Online

How to Play Press Your Luck Online

Press Your Luck is an online game available on Facebook. If you've seen the game show on TV, you know what it's all about. You challenge your friends to a game of Press Your Luck, or just close the challenge window that pops up and play whomever else is playing at that time on Facebook.

Playing whomever is available is still very fun! You answer 6 different trivia questions worth $500-$1000 each. You get money for right answers, and a bit extra if you're the fastest one to answer. If you answer wrong, you don't lose money, unless it's the Whammy question.

Whammies are the little red guys that come and creatively steal all your money away. You want to avoid these guys! They are your nemesis on Press Your Luck! You also get two of your friends as "wild cards" when you play Press Your Luck on Facebook. You can choose two yourself, or just use the two it randomly picks for you.

 These wild cards are featured in the middle of the multiple choice answers to each trivia question. When you don't  know the answer to a question, click one of your wild cards and hope that person answered it right in the past. If they did, you get the answer right! If they didn't, well hope that question isn't the whammy question.

If you wind up in the top 3 highest scores, you get to go play the Press Your Luck wheel! You hit the "Press" button in the middle and chant, "No whammies, no whammies, no whammies, STOP!" Of course you have to do the chant, it's what we all remember about the Press Your Luck game show on TV. You either win a prize, cash, or you hit a whammy and lose all your money.

Three whammies, and you're out. You can also pass your spins on to another player. You might consider doing this if you get your score really high and don't want to risk hitting a whammy. Otherwise, we all like playing the spins for the most part. Just don't hit those whammies!

Where to Play Press Your Luck Online

You can play Press Your Luck online at Facebook, which is where I like to play. This as mentioned above, let's you play your friends, or just random people who are also playing the game. You can also play Press Your Luck online at gsn.com. I haven't played there myself, but I'm sure it's comparable and fun!

Game Show Network is a popular and reliable site, a good option if you don't want to play on Facebook. There are other places to play the game, but these are the two likely to be the most fun and trustworthy to play on. Have fun!!
