Jeopardy! is a classic fan-favorite and highly intriguing game show that comes with an interesting twist. Instead of the host of the show making questions and the players answering them, the answers are given at the beginning, and the contestants are required to supply the questions.

Between Matt Amodio and Amy Schneider, this particular season of the game-show has been quite epic. Undoubtedly, fans are eagerly waiting to learn about the hints and solutions for April 5, 2022. But before that, we will explore the game show a bit more.


What is Jeopardy! about? How to play the game?

As mentioned earlier, the game show comes with a twist that requires the players to give the question to the already given answer at the beginning of the show. Three contestants compete, including the previous show’s champion, in six categories and in three rounds.

Every round brings in prize money that escaltes with every level. In the final round, the contestants can name their own jackpot provided it is within the amount of money they’ve already earned. However, if a player finishes the second round with no money at all, they are eliminated.

Thus, when it comes to the final question, all three contestants go through a dilemma of whether to bet it all or play it safe. The final round is the trickiest of them all and for several historic contestants, including James Holzhauer and Ken Jennings, the final question brought them to their downfall.
