Содержание и правила игры (по типу «Своей игры»)

1. Играют либо 3 игрока, либо 3 команды.

2. Первый ход разыгрывается (можно по жребию)

3. Игрок выбирает тему и стоимость вопроса, затем отвечает. (Используется презентация – Приложение1)

4. Если игрок дал правильный ответ, на его счет поступает выигранное количество баллов, если отвечает неверно, соответствующее количество баллов вычитается.

5. Если выпал «кот в мешке», вопрос нужно отдать другому игроку, назвав его.

6. Если выпал «аукцион», каждый игрок может сделать ставку, но больше номинала, а не меньше. Кто поставит больше, тот и отвечает на вопрос.

7. Перед финалом подсчитывается сумма баллов каждого игрока или команды. Тот, кто окажется в «минусе», не участвует в финале.

8. В финале игроки делают ставки от 1 до … (в зависимости от набранных баллов) до того, как ведущий зачитает финальное задание.

9. На ответ в финале дается 1 минута. Через 1 мин. каждый игрок предоставляет ведущему письменный вариант ответа. Ведущий оглашает все ответы.

10. Выигравшим называется тот, у кого сумма всех баллов (и за игру, и за финал) больше всех.

11. Если не использовать электронный вариант игры (презентация), то на доске надо начертить игровое поле, в котором последовательно стираются те клетки, которые выбирали игроки.
