The sides of the box are changed from yellow with red letters to blue with the First Edition's yellow letters; "TV GAME" is shrunk and moved over to fit "2 NEW SECOND EDITION", which are in white. He stayed in the role for a year before the game was restructured into Wheel of Fortune in 1974, and he left.The assembly instructions on the inside box cover, plus the cover and first few pages of the instruction booklet, are clearly recycled from the First Edition (the LADY MACBETH puzzle on the cover and BABY BUGGY samples), and the other game parts are likely the same.

The cover for the Second Edition is slightly different: the logo is white, the "Some Assembly Required" note is not present, the "Object" box on the left has enlarged text and no suggestion of players (3-6 on the First Edition cover), and there is a yellow "NEW SECOND EDITION" graphic on the side of the Wheel with a large "2". Note that the code is still a work-in-progress and I will continue to refine it and update the project Github repository. In addition, Vanna is no longer on the box, and the back reflects the show being produced by Columbia TriStar Television. Test your luck by spinning the wheel and try to get the highest money or the jackpot and bonus prizes along the way.

After you've played it a couple time though you start to remember some of the phrases and have an unfair advantage over others. In an interview at the 2015 New York Toy Fair, Jim Pressman, the company's president, announced a Fourth Edition. The sides of the boxart prototype had a red background and used an artist's impression of the 1986 Round 1 layout.
