Go (game Show) - Main Game

Main Game

There consisted of two team made up of one celebrity captain and four civilian contestants. The main game was played in either three or four rounds depending on the score. The team that plays first selects a packet of words and phrases. Four of the team's members are the clue givers, while the fifth is the guesser. Two at a time, the team members construct a question appropriate to the clue, with the two members alternating adding a word to the question. After constructing the question, they rang a bell to prompt an answer from the guesser. If the guesser guessed correctly, he or she moved to the next pair of teammates to repeat the process; the guesser did not move if they gave a wrong answer, failed to guess, or if an illegal clue was given. Illegal clues included saying the word (or part of it), giving more than one word at a time, or forming an improper sentence. The team plays against the clock, playing until either providing a fifth correct answer or if the clock reaches 99 seconds before the team finishes guessing.

The opposing team then plays, trying to provide five correct answers in a shorter time period, but if the first team had fewer than five correct answers within their 99 seconds, the second team plays until guessing more answers than the opponent.

A team won the round by guessing their five words in the shorter time period (clock counting down), otherwise if time ran out, the other team won the round. Whether the team won or lost in the last round, the same team played the next round. For each round, the winning team accumulates points. The first round was worth 250 points, then 500 for round two, 750 for round three and 1,250 for the fourth round, if needed. The first team to reach 1,500 points won the game, converted their score into cash, and played the bonus round for $10,000. The losing team took home parting gifts. If the winning team won three rounds in a row, they played the bonus round twice, doubling the potential winnings up to $20,000.
