A line of ten prices, increasing in value, are concealed on the game board. One by one the prices are revealed, and the contestant must determine the ''first'' price revealed that is higher than the price of the car to win it. When they believe a price is more than the price of the car, they are asked to shout "that's too much!" |
|||
If the contestant stops at any price other than the first price which is higher than the price of the car, whether they stop before or after, they win nothing. |

Host [[Bob Barker]] usually asked the contestant to demonstrate shouting "That's too much!" before the game began. If a contestant happened to be a member of the [[military]], for example, Bob might ask them to shout it "like a [[drill sergeant]]." Particularly unenthusiastic attempts (such as not using the phrase word for word or saying the phrase too lightly) usually resulted in admonishment from Barker and booing from the audience. [[Drew Carey]], on the other hand, doesn't emphasize the shouting, but still requires the phrase be used to stop the game. Under Barker, after a contestant said "That's too much!", the decision was final. Carey, however, has allowed changes to be made if the contestant wishes to before the reveal. |
|||
The game is an anthesisis to many pricing games; instead of being closest to the actual retail price ''without'' going over, to win the game, the contestant is supposed to be closest to the actual retail price ''and'' go over. |
