About

Who Wants to be a Millionaire Kids Edition is another follow up to the original Who Wants to be a Millionaire video game series from 1999, and based on the ABC TV series that aired before syndication. This edition is kid-oriented, which is suitable for ages 8 and up. Regis Philbin returns as the host of the game. A variety of questions are suitable for the target age group which are a little easier. There are also lifelines, for example, Regis asks a kid via a Phone-a-Friend which gives him or her a possible answer. Another one of the lifelines is ask the audience, where the kids entered in a poll for most of the questions from the game. Topics include Movies, Sports, Music, TV Shows, Books, and more.
