Hasbro game shows - do these events still exist?

[sarmat1]

Looking through some recent Fun Times, I see no Hasbro game events in the theater.  Are they now gone?  I also now see Deal or No Deal with cards to buy.  Does anyone know what this is all about?

Have not seen one since the restart.

I believe Carnival has dissolved their relationship with Hasbro.

Aw, this is disappointing. ☹️  I was one of the few people that liked the Hasbro shows.

 

Thanks, OP, for sharing.  And thanks, others, for delivering the bad news.

Bummer! My daughter was chosen as a contestant on the hasbro show when we cruised a few years back. She ended up winning a $100 gift card. It was the highlight of the trip for her. She was 5 at the time.

I got picked once and got a deck of Uno cards I think. It was fun!

We watched the Deal or No Deal show on the Sunshine in May for a bit, not impressed with it compared to the Hasbro shows and it appeared many people were confused on how to play with the cards you purchase (it looked like many people bought the $40 package and received 2 cards?). 

 

They called people up from the audience (not sure how they were chosen) one at a time and as they would play the game (just like on TV) on stage the people in the audience would follow along on their cards.  Lots of confusion from audience on how to win prizes, we left after the first contestant completed her run and they were looking for another contestant.

I remember each card is registered to a person when they buy it(by name and I think a unique code).   All they have to do is randomly choose a code and then look up who has that card so they can display that name on the screen.

Deal or Deal is just like another way to play bingo IMO. You have to buy the cards to play and the chances of winning seem slim. My friend played on our last cruise and I watched, but probably wouldn't bother again.

Has anyone seen anyone win more than $50 in the audience? If you look at the cards you buy they only have lower values on them, so it's impossible to get more than a few "matches."

yes, we just got off the Spirit and one guest won $200 in the audience.  The contestant on stage stopped at $421 for his case, and he actually had the $1000 case.  Bummer.

We played. We purchased 2 cards, during the first game, we had enough matches to win $100 which we picked up in the casino. Number was called to be the on stage player for the second game. Took the Bankers offer for $218 when down to 4 cases left, I had the $10 case.
