Welcome to The Big Showdown guide at TV Tome. Three contestants competed in this quiz. After a one point toss-up question, the round began. Rounds one & two had six new categories worth 1-6 points. The objective is to be the first player to hit the payoff point by answering questions to win the cash bonus determined on the money dial on the host's podium. The money dial had $25/$50/$75/$100/$500. Payoff points went in this sequence of 8s & 7s (8-15-23-30-38-45, etc). However, you were locked out of questions if your score goes over the payoff point. When time was short on round two, a 90 second speed round was played & after the payoff point was hit, all future payoff points was a flat $100. The two top scores continued on to... FINAL SHOWDOWN: There were three categories (paying 1, 2 or 3 points) in this round. The object was to reach 7 points to win the game & $250! That winner got to roll the dice! The sixes on the dice were replaced
