Wheel of Fortune is teaming up with leading mobile game developer Jam City to “Make Life Sweeter” for contestants and fans through a cross-platform integration that will incorporate Wheel of Fortune and Jam City’s Cookie Jam into each other’s games to give players and viewers chances to win “sweet” cash prizes.
With 134M downloads to date, Jam City’s beloved Cookie Jam will be themed in the style of Wheel of Fortune beginning today through October 4, 2020.
