Bank or Bust

Boxes, Offers, One Big Decision.

A box-and-offer gameshow on the big screen. One player picks the boxes, the Vault makes the offers, and the whole room shouts advice. Fill the boxes with the built-in cash ladder or your own prizes, and let the drama do the rest.

How Bank or Bust Works

No phones, no joining, no setup. One person in the hot seat, everyone else watching the big screen. A round takes around ten minutes with sixteen boxes, less with eight.

Fill the Boxes

Take the cash ladder as it comes, or type in your own prizes: a free round, a hamper, a wooden spoon, nothing at all. Eight, twelve, sixteen or twenty-two boxes.

The Vault Makes Offers

The Vault works out an offer from what is still in play: mean early on, temptingly close to fair at the end. Playing with prizes instead? The host types the offer.

Big Screen, No Phones

Nothing to scan, nothing to join. It plays out on the audience display and the room does the rest. The one game where everybody is looking up.

The Joker Box

Turn it on and one box is a Bust. Open it and you leave with nothing, however well the game was going. It changes how a room shouts, immediately.

Set the Vault's Mood

A generosity setting. Turn it down and the offers stay insulting for longer, which makes the endgame harder and the room louder.

Undo Button

Tapped the wrong box? There is an undo, and nobody has to know. Hosting mistakes are not part of the drama.

The One Game Where Nobody Looks Down

Most of the platform runs on player phones. Bank or Bust deliberately does not. It is pure big-screen theatre, which makes it the perfect thing to drop into the gap while you score a quiz round or set up the next game. Host it from your phone, tablet or laptop.

The Moment It Turns

The Vault knows exactly what is left in the boxes and offers accordingly. Bank it, or open the next box. That is the whole game, and it is agony.

There is still a big prize out there. There is also a quid. Half the room is shouting take it, the other half is shouting keep going, and one person has to decide.

Made for Any Event

Bank or Bust works with cash on the screen, prizes in the boxes, or complete nonsense. It is exactly as tense either way.
