Introduction

Wheel of Fortune is based on the TV-show with the same name. It is a puzzle game where the goal is to select letters to help you solve the word puzzle. It’s an easy trophy game, but it might take some time to get 100%. This game is at it’s funniest when you play against friends or family. You are rewarded with trophies by cumulatively amass money, visiting the 11 different cities and how well you play.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS NOT THE ONLY WAY TO GO ABOUT GETTING 100%. THIS IS WHAT I THINK IS A GOOD AND ORGANISED WAY OF GETTING THE TROPHIES EFFICIENTLY.

Step 1 – Getting started

Start by creating your own character. This is important because you will want to use the same character all the time to save your progress.

Step 2 – Round related trophies

In this step, you’ll be playing road trip mode. If you choose to, you can also play single rounds as well, but playing road trip mode helps you later on. Now you will focus on getting trophies that is possible to get in one game or round, namely: Wheely Wheely Good, Lucky Letter, Ding Ding Ding Ding, Wheel Consistent, Wheel Spinner and Wheel Winner. Look at the trophyguide for help.

Step 3 – Road Trip
In this step, you’ll continue to play road trip mode to get the cumulative trophies. You’ll work towards getting $1,000,000 in total winnings, winning 25 games and visiting all 11 cities in road trip mode. See Inventor of the Wheel, Puzzle Master and Road Warrior in the guide for tips.

Step 4 – Online
In this short step, you have to win at least one online game. You can do this by joining a random game online or boost it by inviting someone on your friendslist. Look in the boosting thread if you want help with this.

Step 5 – Clean up run
If you did everything in step 3 and 4, it’s still a chance you miss one or more of the trophies in step 2. Focus on any trophies you are missing for 100% in this game.

Trophyguide

Wheel Barrel of Fortune (Bronze)
$100,000 total winnings

See Inventor of the Wheel.

Wheel of Fortune 500 (Silver)
$500,000 total winnings

See Inventor of the Wheel.

Inventor of the Wheel (Gold)
$1,000,000 total winnings

Make a character so your progression is saved. This is a cumulative trophy so as long as you keep using the same character, you’ll eventually unlock this one. One fast way to get this is by getting the $1,000,000 wedge in a game, then win the round and answer correct in the bonus round. Getting the #1,000,000 wedge is obviously based on luck, but since you need 25 wins anyway, the chance of getting it before that is good.

Wheely Wheely Good (Bronze)
$50,000 winnings in one game

You either have to play a great game, or you have to get a big bonus in the bonus round.

Wheel Around The World (Bronze)
Win an online game

Just win an online game either by joining a random game or boosting this one with a friend. See the boosting thread if you want help to boost. Boosting is best done if you are three people. Take turns so that everybody wins one game. When choosing single round, I got into a game immediately, but road trip seems harder to play online.

Lucky Letter (Bronze)
Correctly select Q, X or Z in a puzzle

This one can be tough, but all you need is patience and concentration to spot the possibilities. You won’t get this by solving the puzzle. You have to spin the wheel and then select either Q, X or Z correctly.

Ding Ding Ding Ding (Bronze)
Pick a letter that shows up 4 or more times in a puzzle

To get this one, you have to spin the wheel and then select a letter that shows up 4 or more times. You’ll have to wait for a long puzzle and then select a typical letter. I always take the letter T first and have had success with that.

Puzzle Apprentice (Bronze)
Win 10 games

See Puzzle Master.

Puzzle Master (Silver)
Win 25 games

You have to win 25 games. If you have a hard time winning, try pausing the game and use Google or More Words for help. Offline wins count.

Wheel Consistent (Bronze)
Pick 5 letters in a row in one puzzle

You have to spin the wheel and select a correct letter five times in a row to get this trophy. Hope for a long puzzle and start by selecting probable letters like T, R, S and N and look for possible letters in the words.

Road Warrior (Silver)
Visit all cities in Road Trip mode

In Road Trip mode, you play three rounds of Wheel of Fortune, meaning you visit 3 cities each time you play road trip mode. There are 11 cities in the game so it will take some time. I suggest taking notes on which cities you have visited. After each road trip mode, there is a summary where it says which three cities you’ve visited. To speed up the process a little, start a new road trip mode game and when you see the loading screen with the map of the United States, pay attention to what city is highlighted. If you've been there before, quit and start over again until you start in a city you haven't visited before. There is no way to control what the other two cities will be.

Thanks to Vintsukka for the loading screen tip.

Wheel Spinner (Bronze)
Win a round

Simply solve a puzzle to win one round. This is probably the first trophy you will get.

Wheel Winner (Bronze)
Win a local game

Simply play an offline game and win it.

Is anyone playing this online regularly? If so, I want to know if it's easy or hard to find an online game. Please specify if you are playing single rounds or road trip mode.

When the game is loading in Road Trip mode, the loading screen is a map of the US and the city you're about to play in is highlighted (it appears slightly more bright than the others). As you say, if it's a city you've already been, quit immediately and start again.

Thanks for the tip Vintsukka. I didn't notice that before you said it. It helps a lot because it's sometimes hard to see what city you are in judging by the studio.

I'll add it to the guide and credit you.

Another tip (based on Vinsukka's tip) is that if you have a few cities to visit but you don't want to play 6 more games in cities you've already, do what he suggested, then once the game in that city ends (where they announce the winner), quit and then go back and do th same trick for cities you have not been too. You do not have to play the three cities in a round, just finish the ones you have not done. I did this and got the Road Warrior trophy.

I'd like to add something. I changed the difficulty to an easier setting after 9 citires and upon visiting the last city, the trophy didn't pop. Difficulty may either affect trophies, or all cities must be done in one difficulty. I'm not sure.

EDIT: Never mind, I had to finish the full 3 rounds for the last location to count and to receive the trophy. Also, here's a tip for the online trophy. If both players quit, you can still continue the game and get the trophy.

EDIT: Typo I noticed, one of the puzzles is "There will be blood", but they have "will" spelled as "wil". Just saying.
