Let's Make a Deal/Merchandise

Board Games

Milton Bradley (1964)

In 1964, Milton Bradley released a home version of Let's Make a Deal. The gameplay was different to the television show, as the game had players bidding on combinations of hidden prize cards, with the high scorers getting the advantage in the "Big Deal" Round, which consisted of seven "Door Cards": one "Jackpot Card" worth all the cash used to purchase the card combos, one "Mystery Package Card" which awarded three leftover prize cards, and five "No Value" cards. (This game was produced before the term "Zonk" was used for the gag prizes.)

Ideal (1974)

In 1974, Ideal Toys released an updated version of the game featuring Hall on the box cover. The gameplay was closer to the actual show than the Milton Bradley version, as this game used the three doors, curtains & boxes to play mini-games to earn Low Prize and Top Prize cards (which earn money for the players) while avoiding getting Zonk cards (which lose players money). The two players with the most money participate in the "Big Deal" to choose which of the three Doors has the biggest prize package.

Tiger Electronics (1998)

An electronic tabletop version by Tiger Electronics was released in 1998.

Imagination Games (2006)

In the late summer of 2006, an interactive DVD version of Let's Make a Deal was released by Imagination Games, which also features classic clips from the Monty Hall years of the show. It also features Hall himself as the host of the DVD game.

Pressman (2010)

Pressman released a home game based on the CBS version in 2010 featuring current host Wayne Brady on its cover box. Its gameplay was similar to the Ideal version, but with updated prizes & Zonks.

Books

Grosset & Dunlap/Ballantine (1973)

A autobiographical hardback book called Emcee Monty Hall by Hall and Bill Libby was released by Grosset & Dunlap in 1973, it was obviously about Monty Hall, describing not only his brain child (described modestly as "the most successful game show in TV history") but also his life story.(NOTE: A later paperback was manufactured by Ballantine in the same year.)

BearManor Media (2022)

A second autobiography, titled Monty Hall: TV's Big Dealer, co-authored by Libby and Adam Nedeff, was released in the fall of 2022 in hardcover and paperback by BearManor Media.

Videos/DVDs

A 1975 documentary called Deal: The Making of Let's Make A Deal was originally released as a VHS by Burbank in 1991 and rereleased on DVD in 2005. The independent and cheap-looking film tried to use the show's popularity to comment on society as a whole. Surprisingly harsh, considering the access the filmmakers were given (lots of interviews and behind-the-scenes footage, plus permission to use clips of the 1963 pilot).

Scratch-off Version

Several State lotteries have featured Let's Make a Deal on their scratch games.
