This is a pretty weak translation of the game. There's no glam, the lack of real three-player support is inexcusable, and it's a far less accurate translation of the look and feel of the show than most of Gametek's other forays. The Press Your Luck theme isn't even recreated. It is, however, the ONLY translation of the game, and as far as letting you play Press Your Luck as a contestant, it works. The quiz section is tolerable, and the parser is excellent. The board section can offer some legitimate drama, and serious thought as to whether you should risk another spin or pass - at least if you enjoy the show and have ever sympathized with a contestant on it. If you've never seen the original, you will doubtfully be impressed with what the game is trying to replicate here.
