Spin-Off was a short-lived American game show from 1975 that was based on the dice game Yahtzee and starred Jim Lange.Game playTwo couples, one a returning champion, competed, answering questions to spin a series of five "spinners" and build a Yahtzee-type hand. The spinners had the numbers 1-6 on them.With each correct answer, each spinner randomly flashed the numbers rapid-fire style and were stopped by pressing a button. The couple could keep the hand shown, or reject some or all of the numbers and earn up to two opportunities to improve the hand. Payoffs ranged from $50 for one pair to $200 plus a bonus prize for five of a kind. The first couple to amass $250 won the game and advanced to the Super Spin-Off bonus round.
