Wheel of Wealth is a Wheel of Fortune (opens in new tab) styled game for your Windows Phone. The game features local play as well as an online multi-player option. Wheel of Wealth is a fun time waster and the game has been updated to version 2.0.

The update focuses on two key areas brought to the developers attention by Wheel of Wealth users; player registration and game speed. Players weren't too eager to cough up their email address and opted for the offline game mode. To help make registration easier and more private, you can now login to play the online game through your Facebook account.

As far as Wheel of Wealth's game speed was concerned, the developers have redesigned online play on the server end to allow a full turn to be completed without delay. In tinkering with the updated version, game play does move along at a faster clip.  All in all, the update improves upon a nice game for your Windows Phone.

Wheel of Wealth is a free, ad supported game for your Windows Phone that you can snatch up here (opens in new tab) at the Marketplace.  And you can follow all the Wheel of Wealth news from Twitter by following @WheelOfWealth (opens in new tab).

  • Hmm, so I can cough up a fake/spam email address and register anonymously, or I can register using a Facebook account that gives them API access to all my details. Yeah, that's easier and more private...
  • You can control the access they get. DUHHHHH!!!!;
  • Hi, im the developer. You can use the Facebook authentication to register and login, and then on your Facebook account, revoke access to the app. Its used once off simply to authenticate.
  • Thanks for the clarification! :) Very good to know!
  • And your email address when registering a proper account is only ever used for account recovery purposes :)
  • I am ranked 62. Any chance this could become an Xbox live status?
  • I'm currently ranked 44 (sn: windiesel) I had stopped playing because I got tired of all of the load times between letters. With this update, I'm back and addicted again. Great update!
  • Good to hear :)
  • Shantek,
     I like the speed on the new update. I do have one question. My pinned tile always shows a chat notification, even though I do not have any games with unread chat messages.
     Is there any way to get rid of the chat notification on the tile? Thanks for any help on this.
  • Sure. Contact us via a support ticket from within the game and ill get that reset for you
  • Yep update is nice always give good comments also, but can u change the main menu buttons to a more metro look always ask for this feature in future updates. Thanks
