America Says

America Says is hosted by John Michael Higgins and features two teams that must compete head-to-head in three rounds of puzzles and surveys. In each Round, a fill-in-the-blank survey question is given to the contestants, and seven hidden answers are placed on the board. Unlike Family Feud, this show displays the first letter of each answer, with the rest of the letters being represented by blanks.

When a contestant answers a question correctly, the team scores points, and the person gets to guess again. If the contestant answers incorrectly, the next player in line gets a chance to answer. The team on the left begins Rounds 1 and 2, but the third round is started by the team that has the most points. In the event of a tie, the winner of a coin toss begins the final round.

If your team guesses all seven answers within 30 seconds, bonus points are awarded. If time runs out, the other team is given a chance to score points by guessing the remaining answers. The team is awarded points for each correct answer, but it only takes one wrong answer to end the question before the host reveals the answers.

In Round 1, the team captain begins, and each correct answer is worth 100 points. If all seven answers are guessed in less than 30 seconds, the team earns a 1,000-point bonus. In Round 2, the second player begins. Here, each correct answer is worth 200 points, and the time bonus is 2,000 points. Finally, the team’s third player begins Round 3, where all correct answers are worth 300 points, and you guessed it, the bonus is 3,000 points.

The team with the most points after Round 3 wins the game. If at any point in the game, the winning team amasses an insurmountable lead, they are immediately declared the winners. If the game ends in a tie, the two team captains will compete to see who can guess the top answer the fastest. Just beware that the other team automatically wins if your team buzzes in the wrong answer.

And did we mention that the winning team gets more than just bragging rights? The team with the most points at the end of Round 3 automatically wins $1,000. What we didn’t tell you is that America Says also offers the chance to earn $15,000 in a bonus round.
