Family Feud
Family Feud is an American television game show created by Mark Goodson. It features two families who compete to name the most popular answers to survey questions in order to win cash and prizes.
The video game series based on the game show Family Feud began with ShareData’s 1987 release on the Apple II and Commodore 64 consoles. In 1990 GameTek released a version on the NES. GameTek later released four more Feud games for the Super NES, Sega Genesis, 3DO, and PC between 1993 and 1995. Hasbro Interactive, Global Star, and Ubisoft have also released versions starting in 2000.
ShareData versions – Family Feud
ShareData released the first video game versions of the game show in 1987 on the Apple II and Commodore 64,[1] with two versions of the packaging: one shows a drawing of a just completed round (using the Milton Bradley home game art design), and another shows a full shot of the set from the first Richard Dawson era. The game plays like the Dawson era (with the look similar to the 1976 – 1985 era) with (2 Single rounds, 1 Double Round, and 1 Triple Round – with 300 point rules and Fast Money Win of $10,000)

GameTek versions gameplay – Family Feud
The Family Feud video game series features two competing families, each represented by five members (reduced to four contestants for the 1994–95 season), who compete to determine the answers to survey questions. The original version of the show began with the families being introduced, seated opposite each other as if posing for family portraits, after which the host interviewed them.[2]
The game show Family Feud had three separate runs, the first of which started in 1976. Its original run from 1976 to 1985 aired the series on both ABC and syndicated, with Richard Dawson as host. In 1987, the series was revived as a pilot and later in 1988 aired on both CBS and in syndication with Ray Combs hosting until 1994, with Dawson returning until that version ended in 1995.
In 1999, the series was revived through its first-run syndication with four different hosts: Louie Anderson (1999–2002), Richard Karn (2002–2006), John O’Hurley (2006–2010), and Steve Harvey (2010–present). Studio announcers who introduced the contestants and read credits included Johnny Olson (1975 pilot), Gene Wood (1976–1995), Burton Richardson (1999–2010), Joey Fatone (2010–2015), and Rubin Ervin (2015–present).
