The contestants had the choice of agreeing with the star to be right or disagreeing if they thought the star is bluffing to be wrong. If the contestant's right, he or she got the square; if the contestant's wrong, the other contestant got the square, unless that caused the opponent to get three stars in a row.
In that case, the opponent had to win the square on his or her own. On rare occasions, a star would not know the correct answer to a question, but would be unable to come up with a plausible bluff.
In such instances, the contestant would be offered the chance to answer the question to win or lose the square as above. Usually the contestants declined, in which case they incurred no penalty and the same star was asked another question.

Five cars were displayed onstage under the show's logo. Each week featured a different set of five cars, all of the same make. In the event that a champion on Friday returned the following Monday, the lowest-valued cars were eliminated corresponding to the number of prior attempts, and the champion selected a new key from the remaining cars available.
In the final season, each of the nine celebrities held a key, and all five cars were available each day, no matter how many times the champion had played for the car. For each victory, the champion had to first pick a car, and then a key the celebrity who held that key would be one of the good luck celebrities.
Five stars held keys for each individual car, while the other four held dud keys that didn't start any car. To compensate for this increase in difficulty, champions simply stayed on until winning a car, or until they were defeated. The show became infamous for its April Fools prank played on host Davidson, in which two "contestants" who were actually stunt people got into a fight after the so-called Ms.
Circle "O" Annie Ellis caught the so-called Mr. X Greg Barnett cheating by peeking behind John's card. It ended by having the fake Ms. Circle push the fake Mr. X off the contestant area after which the audience said, "April Fools, John!

For at least the first few months, there were two Secret Square games; the first in Game 2, and the second in Game 3. After the first two weeks, should the Secret Square's prize not be won in the second game, it carried over into the third game.
By Season 2, only one Secret Square game was played each day, but it did revive the progressive prize filled jackpot featured in the daytime version of the original.
Starting in the show's sixth week, the contestant had to make a judgment on the star's answer to one final Secret Square-style question in order to win the prize.
After approximately two months into the fourth season, a new bonus game was instituted in response to the recent trend of game shows offering high stakes. The amount revealed by the selected star became the scoring amount for the round. The star partner could help by conferring, but only the contestant could answer.
