The same Whammy animations used in the original American version of Press Your Luck (1983) were used in this version of the show (complete with the original voices).
During the show's run, announcer John Deeks travelled between Melbourne and Adelaide to do announcing duties for "Press Your Luck" and Wheel of Fortune (1981) respectively.
John Deeks would sometimes say "Ouch!" after the line "as they play the most exciting game of their lives", depending on what Whammy animation was played during this introduction.
Cash amounts on the first Big Board round ranged from $30 to $490, while the largest amount on offer in the second round was $4000.
