Sharky writes that Ludia Inc., a Montreal-based vendor has come up with a downloadable version of The Price is Right game.

“It comes with both single player and party mode, which lets up to four players compete, with the winner determined by the total value of the prizes won. This game lets players bid on items in 16 different games, including Plinko, Cliff Hanger, Punch-a-Bunch and Hole in One. And, just like on the TV show, contestants can spin The Big Wheel.”

The IPPR’s report found that, unsurprisingly, very few parents have any idea about what their children are doing online. The report blamed this on guardians’ ‘lack of knowledge and understanding’ of technology and the internet.”
