Limitless Win
Ant & Dec's Limitless Win, sometimes known simply as Limitless Win, is a British game show hosted by Ant & Dec. It premiered 8 January 2022 on ITV. It was created and is produced by Hello Dolly Ltd. It is also produced by Ant & Dec's Mitre Studios. The set's AR elements use Unreal Engine 4.[citation needed]
Two contestants work together as a team to answer a series of questions whose solutions are all positive integers (whole numbers). In a preliminary round, they must answer as many questions as possible in 60 seconds, earning five "lives" for each correct response and incurring no penalty for a pass or miss. The contestants alternate turns; no conferring is allowed, and a contestant's turn only ends once they give a correct answer. The hosts decide in advance which contestant will receive the first question. If the team fails to answer any questions correctly, they are immediately dismissed with no winnings; these are normally cut from airings, so this has yet to happen after four series.
Examples of questions used in the preliminary round:
The main game makes use of the "Limitless Ladder," a vertical scale marked off in steps and displaying cash values at each 10th step that increase from bottom to top. The questions increase in difficulty as the team move up the ladder. They must use a dial to register their guess on each question, attempting to get as close to the correct answer as possible without going over. They move up the ladder a number of steps equal to their guess, and lose enough lives to match the error between the guess and the correct answer. All correct answers in this portion of the game are less than or equal to 50. The hosts warn the team when they have 20 seconds left to give a guess; if they fail to do so before time runs out, the last value they have dialled is automatically locked in. If the team make an error larger than the number of remaining lives or offer a guess above the exact answer, the game ends and they leave with no winnings.
Examples of questions used in the main game:
One lifeline at a time is made available for the team's use as the game proceeds; each may only be used once. The lifelines are shuffled and randomly placed at indicated steps on the Limitless Ladder, but the identity of each one is only revealed once the team reaches it. If the team unlocks a new lifeline while holding an unused one, they may only keep one of the two and must discard the other.
If the team gives an exact guess, they receive five more lives and their bank is increased to match the highest cash value they have reached to that point. They may end the game at any time and keep their banked money, as long as they have not locked in a guess for the current question. The first 12 values displayed on the Limitless Ladder are £500 (the starting point), £1,000, £2,500, £5,000, £10,000, £20,000, £30,000, £50,000, £75,000, £100,000, £150,000, and £250,000. Onwards, every 10 additional steps will increase the prize by a further £250,000. There is seemingly no upper limit to the potential top prize.
If the error between the team's guess and the correct answer is exactly large enough to use up all remaining lives, the game moves into a "sudden death" phase. Any inexact guess on the next question ends the game and sends the team home with no money, while an exact one gives them five lives, banks the last value reached, and returns the team to normal play.[citation needed]
