Wheel of Fortune: Family Edition is one of a series of NES games based on the famous TV game show. The goal is to solve a word puzzle by guessing letters. The players take turns spinning a wheel that has designated money amounts in most spaces, but can also bankrupt the player in the wheel lands on the wrong space. A player can guess a letter and if that letter is in the puzzle, those spaces are flipped to reveal the letter and the player earns the cash amount specified by the wheel spin, multiplied by the number of occurrences of the letter. Only English consonants can be guessed-- the 5 English vowels can be purchased using a player's earnings.

Wheel of Fortune: Deluxe Edition is an updated sequel to its predecessor that features 4,000 different puzzles and the standard features of Wheel of Fortune such as the bonus round. It also has a digitized likeness of Vanna White along with her voice. There are also digitized photos of people that can be chosen to represent the player. Players can go up against friends or compete against the computer A.I.

Designed by Rare, each player enters their selection by using the controller to scroll through the alphabet, contained in a string along the bottom of the screen; the player loses their turn if too much time is taken. A player attempting to solve the puzzle has to enter the exact solution to be credited with a victory.

Whale's Voyage is a sci-fi role-playing game with trading elements.

There are more than a dozen levels--including an arctic pipeline, a Christmas tree, and a kitchen sink--for you to conquer.
