Poobah Out2C Posted November 7, 2017 #1 Share Posted November 7, 2017 My wife and I were on the Pride last month and my wife won the Hasbro game. I was wondering if anyone else won this and how long did it take to receive your game package delivered to your home? I am anxious to have game night here at home with awesome fellow cruisers that we have met on that cruise.

maryred Posted November 8, 2017 #2 Share Posted November 8, 2017 When I won the big prize for the Hasbro game show in June 2016 I received while still on stage a gift card to be used at HasboToyShop.com. The CD told me the card was valued at $100 but when I checked the value it was for $150. We waited till Cyber Monday last year and got some great deals.

Thanks, my wife did win a travel game on stage and a gift card for $150.00 for Hasbro.com, but she was told that she would be sent a prize package to the house and gave her information to a Fun Squad member afterwards. Before the show starts, up on the big screen it shows a package of games that the winner would receive.

Poobah Out2C Posted November 8, 2017 Author #5 Share Posted November 8, 2017 i always wondered, actually truly believed, that they ensured a child would win, meaning.... the value of the piece you choose is determined after all picks, and always a child is the winner. ( which i have nooo problem with whatsoever) the only reason i believe this is... i go often, i did over a dozen cruises this year and saw Hasbro at least 8, and all 8 a child was the winner.. now it seems my thoughts have been all wrong? i kinda think a child should win, they get so excited! You should have seen the excitement on my wife's face when she won. Also, last year my daughter made it to the stage as well and the look on her face, just being able to participate, was priceless. Carnival is fun for all ages and I am absolutely addicted to cruising with them. Sent from my LG-LS997 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no doubt you're right. Maybe there weren't any kids playing or maybe his wife looks really young that they thought she was a child? Our experience has been the same that a child always wins. On our last cruise, my son got on stage and knew that if his team won, he'd likely be the grand prize winner. Unfortunately, his team didn't win so we got the consolation travel game. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I talked to his mom and told her that he promised to share I had the highest score until it came to him. Sure enough, he Won Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, his team didn't win so we got the consolation travel game. :( Of course they pick adults, as it is a family game. Some of the games played on stage require adults to play, such as Simon, as 8 adults have to wear this sling with a huge block attached to them. If people don't like kids being involved in things, there is usually an adults only game in the Butterflies lounge. This game which has nothing to do with Hasbro, gets a little risque, so enter if you dare. 😉 Sent from my LG-LS997 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super curious to know if you guys ever received the game package. My son won the Game show this past week on the Vista. It stated on the winnings FYI that the winner would receive the game night package, in addition to the $150 Gift Card. Check on the GC, however, I really haven't seen much of anything else/ any mutterings about the other winnings. Thank you in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CeleBrat Posted May 17, 2018 #12 Share Posted May 17, 2018 On our last cruise (MAGIC/March) the big-red card-reading machine thingy stopped working during the show. The contestant would insert his/her card, but the machine wouldn't reveal the value. So, the workaround was that the Host took each card from the contestant and "pretended" to insert it in the back of the machine, and then they would pull a different type of card from the back of the machine that had a $$ value on it. I'm glad they had a contingency, but it was soooooo lame, as it seemed as if the Host could totally dictate who won as he was doing the $ card selecting. Especially since the person who won was the lady whom the Host was totally doting on during the whole show (older lady, traveling with a large family, and had her 9 month infant grandson on stage because the Host thought he was so cute).

JenniX Posted May 22, 2018 #14 Share Posted May 22, 2018 I have wondered, how the contestant's are actually choosen? Any insight is appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatcat604 Posted May 23, 2018 #15 Share Posted May 23, 2018 How to participate the game? Do we need to seat in lower area close the stage? My son would love to come up for the game. He tried so hard last time, but we didn't know, we sat at higher stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones I’ve been to it seems like they walk that middle aisle when picking people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CeleBrat I was also on this cruise :) I remember thinking that it was obviously predetermined when Dr. E pretty much made up the amounts as they went since the machine didn’t work.

When I did it on Sunshine, I made sure to jump around very excitedly when I knew the answer to a question to attract Emma Nixon’s attention. Sure enough, I got on stage.

xkritter Posted May 25, 2018 #23 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Adults do actually win - even with kids playing. My son was chosen to play and his team did win - and an adult ended up winning the overall game. He loved playing though - and won a card game and a $10 Hasbro card - or maybe $20 - I can't remember for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracyjj0 Posted May 25, 2018 #24 Share Posted May 25, 2018 My 20yr old son won on The Horizon in Europe and he was given a $150 obc, which was fab as we don’t need any more board games in our house (and we’d have to pay postal charges and import tax if we bought from online in The USA) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
