This is a fan-created web version of Wheel of Fortune, the popular TV word game show, programmed in jQuery/HTML/CSS. Solve hidden word phrases by spinning a wheel and guessing letters. Modes include Main Game, Toss-Up, and Bonus Round. Guess letters, spin the wheel, solve puzzles, and win "money!" Over 1,000 puzzles included, so you'll rarely see the same puzzle twice! Music and sound effects are from the real show (season 39 and onwards)!

Disclaimer: I used generative AI to help create puzzles. However, they have been manually reviewed to ensure that they make sense (because unchecked AI is stupid!)

Timeline

I updated the confetti and music in the Bonus Round to be absolutely EPIC!!! It might cause your computer to lag LMAO. Also, the bonus round puzzles now come from a separate set of around 400 puzzles. These ones contain more of the uncommon letters, so take that as you will! It's like the real Bonus Round in Wheel of Fortune -- sometimes they put stuff like X, Q, and J in the puzzle so people don't solve it. I'm sure you can though!

Another huge update after a day of grinding!
- Super cool particle effects and puzzle board border with gradients, just like the real show!
- New Bonus Round mode has been added! Get the letters RSTLNE, pick three letters and a consonant, and solve in 10 seconds!
- New puzzles bringing the total to over 1000!

Huge updates since my last devlog! I made a Toss-Up mode. In the Toss-Up mode, letters pop up randomly every second until you buzz, after which you solve a puzzle and earn points. It's a lot of fun! I also added lots of animations that make the entire game super smooth.

I spent the day getting the Wheel of Fortune game's initial concept working! Now, you can spin the wheel, call consonants and vowels, land on Bankrupt and Wild Card wedges, solve the puzzle, and play again after you solved it. I also created a JSON file of over 300 new puzzles that I used Gemini to help generate (the puzzles are actually super well made!) In the immediate future I will try to add art to the project (nightlife pictures in the background like the real show or a more beautiful puzzle board). Sometime later, I want to add a Toss-Up Challenge and a 1v1v1 online/bot game of Wheel of Fortune.
