Gameplay

The objective of the game is to answer multiple choice trivia questions correctly to move up the stairs. Correctly answering one guarantees that the participant goes up the stairs, while an incorrect answer risks them going down a step as well as one of their three lives. The game ends when the participant loses all of their lives. When the participant manages to make it to the eighth step, he or she wins 10,000 pesos and can continue playing to increase their winnings.
