After three contestants: Connor, Lacie, and Jacob, had their chance to play their own games, only one was going to make it through the Showcase Showdown.
The Showdown sees contestants spin the “Big Wheel” to determine how close they can get to $1, without going over
Lacie went first and got a 55 on her first spin.
She had the option to keep her 55 or spinning again, but she chose to stay put.
During Connor’s turn, he spun the wheel a little too hard and lost his balance, nearly falling to the floor.
However, he quickly caught himself and sprung back on his feet.
Game show host Drew Carey decided to ignore the young contestant’s fall.
Instead, Drew asked him if he wanted to give any shout-outs to family and friends.
Connor first spun a 15. When he spun again, he got a 65, which got him to 90.

Finally, it was Jacob’s turn to beat a 90, but was unsuccessful when he spun a 70.
With 10 cents to spare, Connor was headed to the Showcase Round.
At the end of the show, he won $96,150.
‘BEAST MODE’
On X, formerly Twitter, one fan of the game show shared their critique on the all-kids spin-off.
