For ages game shows have been a massive part of our TV lives. Gaining massive viewing figures and keeping millions of the UK's TV fans hooked on a daily basis. However, while programmes, films and podcasts have found some success online, the game show has not really made much of a transition.

For now the most popular way to enjoy game shows online seems to be through the medium of online gaming. Many of the most popular and famous shows on TV now have online game counter parts. Allowing web users to have a game show experience of their own when ever they choose.

Obviously the online game experience won't stack up to being on a real game show, but for those that enjoy watching the likes of Deal or No Deal and Family Fortunes, it can add some extra fun to your online gaming experience.

The games in question are more often than not, hosted by online bingo or casinos websites. They can usually be played for free, and have the option of playing for money, where just the the TV shows, big money can be won.

Probably because it is the casino and bingo sites that have embraced online game shows, the games tend to come in the form of slot machines or bingo games.

The slot machines are popular, as they are a fun way to enjoy online gambling, and the prizes can be massive!

The bingo format though, gives an experience closer to the real thing. This comes about as the bingo game format involves being part of a game with other people, where you can see the game develop and your chances of winning increase or decrease.
