What is better than winning a million dollars? Winning a million dollars’ worth of gold! That’s right, Pawn for Gold will be the first game show to ever feature a grand prize of a million dollars’ worth of gold. Before we jump the gun, let’s discuss how a participant can win that grand prize. The show will present four rounds with three contestants. The following is a brief overview of the game show rounds:

Round 1: The “Trivia Round” will feature multiple-choice trivia questions with a unique twist. The four multiple-choice answers will be given prior to the question being asked. The first contestant to buzz in and answer correctly will receive one pawn ticket.

Round 2: The “Pawn Ticket Round” will feature prizes from the actual pawn floor of Badlands. Each contestant will use their pawn tickets to pick featured pawn items they believe to be of the most value. The contestant that accumulates the highest total value will choose to either advance to the next round or keep the prizes and walk away. If they choose to keep the prizes, the next contestant with the highest total value will be faced with the same decision, and so on.

Round 3: The winner of round 2 will move on to the “Treasure Chest Round.” Here, they will choose from a group of undisclosed treasure chests, which contain various amounts of cash, a few chests that cause you to lose everything and end the game, and one chest

that contains a chance to win $1,000,000. At this point, the contestant can move on to the next round or they may walk away, cash in hand, and avoid losing everything.

Round 4: If the contestant chooses to take the risk, they move on to the “Go for the Gold Round” round, which features a prize wheel. The contestant will have one spin. They could win various amounts of cash, lose everything, or land on the slot that features a million dollars’ worth of gold!

The best way to summarize all this excitement is a lot of prizes and a lot of ways to win them. This exhilarating game show set-up will conjure up moments that leave viewers anywhere from grinding their teeth to scratching their heads.
