Camouflage is a televisiongame show that aired on Game Show Network. Hosted by Roger Lodge, and billed as 'the hidden word game where the answer is always right in front of you', Camouflage originally aired for 40 episodes from July 2 to 27, 2007. The show is a word game, with contestants searching for a hidden word or phrase in a string of jumbled letters. The show is produced by Enjoy the Ride Productions in association with McB Entertainment.
Originally, two shows aired per night at 7:00 and 7:30 PM Eastern time. However, on July 30 the second run was removed and replaced by Lingo while the airings moved to weeknights at 1:30 AM Eastern. On January 5, 2009, Wheel of Fortune took over its time slot.
Gameplay[edit]
Three contestants are shown a jumble of letters which contains the answer within, spelled out in correct order (albeit with intervening or 'decoy' letters). A clue is also provided to aid the contestants with the puzzle, but the clue is often indirect; most clues involve some sort of word play. Similar to Jeopardy! the show features puzzles titled 'double' and 'final' Camouflage.
As each puzzle is played, decoy letters are removed one at a time, making the answer easier to discern but reducing the total value by 10 points for each decoy latter that is removed; the process stops once there are no more decoy letters remaining or when the value of the puzzle reaches 10 points, whichever comes first. A contestant may buzz in at any time during a puzzle to give an answer. If correct, the answer is revealed, and the contestant is credited the point value of the puzzle at the time the guess is made. There is no point penalty for a wrong answer, but a contestant who is incorrect may not make any more guesses for that particular puzzle.
The game is played in three rounds. Gameplay is identical in each round, but the difficulty of the puzzles increases. Each puzzle in the first round has a starting value of 100 points, and each answer consists of a minimum of one word. The second round's puzzles are worth 200 points to start, and each answer consists of a minimum of two words. In addition, the first two letters that drop from each puzzle do not affect its value (they are 'free letters'). In the third round, puzzles have a minimum of three words with a starting value of 300 points. Also, the first five letters drop from the puzzle without decreasing its value. At the end of the third round, the contestant with the highest score moves on to the endgame. If there is a tie, a tiebreaker puzzle is played using the Round 1 format.
All correct answers to all puzzles have letters that read from left to right.
Examples of puzzles[edit]

Double Camouflage[edit]
One puzzle in each round is designated as a 'Double Camouflage' puzzle. The first part of these puzzles is played identically to the others. However, the contestant who solves the puzzle can double the point value by solving a secondary puzzle. The secondary puzzle is 'camouflaged' inside the answer to the primary puzzle and involves a new clue. The contestant has ten seconds to solve the puzzle without the benefit of removing letters from the puzzle. To counter this disadvantage, contestants may guess as much as they wish without penalty, and the secondary clues are generally more straightforward than in the main game. If a contestant solves the secondary puzzle, the contestant is credited with double the value of the primary puzzle; if incorrect, the contestant still retains the value of the primary puzzle.
Final Camouflage[edit]
The endgame revolves around solving a 'Final Camouflage' puzzle. The contestant gets a certain amount of help based on his or her performance in a speed round. The contestant is given 45 seconds to solve as many puzzles as he or she can. Decoy letters automatically drop from the puzzles one at a time. As in a 'Double Camouflage' puzzle, a contestant may make as many guesses as he or she wishes at each speed round puzzle. When time expires, the 'Final Camouflage' puzzle is revealed to the contestant. For each puzzle solved in the speed round, a decoy letter is dropped from the final puzzle. The contestant then has 15 seconds to solve the final puzzle, giving as many guesses as he or she wishes. A contestant who correctly solves the final puzzle wins $5,000;[1] a contestant who fails to solve the puzzle is given $250 for each puzzle he or she solved during the speed round.
Interactive play[edit]
GSN.com had a smaller, modified version of the game that can be played on an Internet-connected computer, however it was removed in mid-2013 for unknown reasons.

Was there a better time to stay home sick from school than the 1970s? After Captain Kangaroo, you could park it on the couch and spend the day watching Happy Days reruns, The Gong Show, The Edge of Night — and so, so many game shows.
This was the golden era of the game show, as hosts with tinted eyeglasses and bushy sideburns held oddly thin microphones on twinkling stages. Everyday guests mingled with celebrities, both wearing fly collars.
Each network stuffed its daytime lineup with game shows. Some, such as Jeopardy!, The Hollywood Squares, Let's Make a Deal, Password and The $10,000 Pyramid, became classics. Others, like those that follow, lasted mere months.
Do you remember any of these shows?
The Wizard of Odds
The face is certainly familiar. Alex Trebek broke into the American hosting biz with this statistically minded game. There were familiar names behind the scenes, too. Alan Thicke crooned the groovy theme song.

Winning Streak
Bill Cullen, dubbed the 'Dean of Game Show Hosts,' found work in a handful of series on this list. This 1974 word game replaced the host's Three on a Match, and announcer Don Pardo carried over, as well. On August 9, 1974, the show was preempted as the network switched to coverage of Nixon leaving office.

The Fun Factory
Smooth singer Bobby Van gave this rather zany series a bit of a Vegas air. The audience played to win prizes in a series of games punctuated with comedy skits. Fans of Let's Make a Deal, variety shows and Broadway would eat it up. Perhaps that crossover is not as big as the network hoped, as it only lasted about four months.

Stumpers!
'If your partner and you can follow the clues and say the name, you'll win the game and a chance to win $20,000!' Celebrities paired with commoners to decode synonym word puzzles. For example, 'Sizzling / Canine' would be 'Hot / Dog.'

Hot Seat
Imagine a cross of The Newlywed Game and an interrogation with a lie detector. Spouses were hooked up to an electrical device that read emotions, measuring veracity of their statement with a glowing meter above their head.

The Magnificent Marble Machine
Sounding like a psychedelic album or a Sid and Marty Krofft production, The Magnificent Marble Machine featured a massive pinball machine as its centerpiece. What we would give to play that!

Whew!
After correcting errors in a series of statements, contestants would then in the bonus round pass through 'The Gauntlet of Villains,' a series of cartoon characters including Count Nibbleneck the Vampire and Bruno the Headsman. Uh, okay.

Blankety Blanks
Bill Cullen again. Contestants would pair with celebs to play a game of fill-in-the-blanks with puns. Despite the slightly dangerous allure that came with a title that suggested censored curse words, the show did not last.

The Better Sex
This could only exist in the 1970s. 'It's men versus women in a battle of the sexes. Women or men, which is... THE BETTER SEX?' Six men faced off against six women as the two teams tried to bluff their way through trivia. Running for about half a year starting in 1977, this proved that 'Sex' doesn't always sell.

Shoot for the Stars
Airing from January to September of 1977, this show again paired celebs and regular folk. However, lest the title mislead you, the contestants were not shooting at the stars. Bill Cullen did not host, but he did turn up as a celebrity player. He certainly earned the status.
