Say what you see ...
Play Catchphrase Online
"Just say what you see!"
"Just say what you see" and join Roy Walker in this online Catchphrase game.
Just like on the Catchphrase TV show you need to 'say what you see' and answer general knowledge questions correctly to solve the catchphrase and win money.
The game is quite similar to the TV show, however, to make the real money game slightly trickier you are given an animated catchphrase and you have to solve the catchphrase one letter at a time by correctly answering questions.
This draws out this real money game, so if you want to win lots of money, you will be there a while.
Rules of the game
Basic rules...
The aim of real money Catchphrase is to solve the animated catch phrase by selecting letters you think are in the catchphrase and correctly answering questions.
Each catchphrase is worth a certain number of points, and every correctly solved catchprase will move you along the scale to win more money.
Catchphrase in more detail
After being introduced to the game by Roy Walker (just press 'stop' if you want to speed things up) you will need to choose how many points you will be playing for.
To do this, the catchphrase board will appear with different amounts of points on it and you will need to press stop to determine how many points your game is worth (and we all know that points make prizes).
The next screen is the one with that all important catchphrase. You are given a while to have a look at the catchphrase and work out what Mr Chips is doing.
The next part of the real money catchphrase game is a bit like the old hangman game. You have to choose a letter (you are given three options) that you think is in the catchphrase and correctly answer the question that goes along with it. Those that have already had a peek at the game will know that each letter has a catagory underneath it, so to make it easier, pick the catagories rather then the letters. The catagory questions are:
- Science and Nature
- A-Z
- Show Biz
- Pot Luck
- Sport
- Pop Music
- People and Places
If you choose the wrong letter, you lose a life and will be gien three new letters to choose from.
If you answer a question incorrectly you will lose a 'try again' (but don't worry you can win more in the Online Catchphrase game bonus round).
The Bonus round
Occasionally you will get the option of playing the bonus game. Instead of offering you three letters, you will be offered 2 letters and a box with a '?' symbol.
If you choose the '?' symbol, you will be shown a board with lots of different options. They will then be hidden and each square on the board will be highlighted one at a time. You need to push the stop button and the square it lands on will be your prize.
Some are good prizes and some are terrible (so remember where the good ones are at the start).

These are the different prizes you can win:
- Add A Letter - Adds a letter to your catchphrase
- Catchphrase Symbol - Deducts one symbol from the number required to win the Live Jackpot
- Complete Phrase - Completes the catchphrase for you
- Extra Letter - A letter is offered that may (or may not) be in the phrase
- Extra Letters - A number of letters are offered that may (or may not) be in the catchphrase
- Extra Points - Adds a bonus number of points to the points bar when you complete the current catchphrase
- Game Over - Ends the game. All your winnings are lost
- Lose a Life - Deducts one life. If this was your last remaining life the game is over and you will lose all your winnings
- Spot Prize - Awards the indicated prize
- Super Try Again - Two try agains are added (you can have a maximum of 3)
- Try Again - Adds one Try Again (you can have up to a maximum of 3).
Catchphrase Winnings
After you complete a catchphrase you will be asked if you want to collect your cash winnings and end the game, or continue with the chance to win more money.
Hints and tips
In all honesty, there is no strategy when it comes to this online cash catchphrase game. The only help I can give you is:
- Choose the catagories that you find the easist to answer - The majority of the time, there are two letters that will fit in to your catachphrase and one that wont.
- Take your time - Even though you are against a timer, you have plenty of time to answer the questions.
- Try again - Use your try agains wisely.
- Bonus round - Use the bonus round to solve the catvchphrase you are on, or top up on those try agains and extra lives.
Is it for you?
Catchphrase for cash is great for anyone who loved the Catchphrase TV show.
The questions can be a little bit awkward at times (and the timer means you don't have enough time to google the answer), but you do have a number of lives to hep you through the trickier questions.
Layout
The layout is simple. You can skip the introductions. The animated cash catchphrases are just like those you would find on the Catchphrase TV game show. The game runs smoothly and is fun to play.
Final thoughts...
Catchphrase is fun to play.
Online Catchphrase for cash prizes is very similar to the Catchphrase TV gameshow.
Winning money takes a while as there are lots of pesky questions standing in the way of you and those all important winnings. Online catchphrase for real money is definatley more suited for those looking for a fun general knowledge game, rather than a get rich quick scheme.
