How about tilting the phone back and forth to increase your swing, then tap
to release an object to land somewhere specific?. If the target is off to
one side, turn the phone until it is centered, then perform the swing to get
the distance and tap to release. Or rather than tapping, hold down on the
screen to hold the object and raise your finger to release it.

Hi Tom.
I've not heard of this game show before either,either in it's original
american form (though American game shows are only occasionally shown in
the Uk), or if there was a Uk version made which sometimes happens with
popular american shows, such as the very famous play your cards right with
the legendary bruceForsythe being a Uk version of the American card
sharks.
However, nicols' question did make me considder how something like a
physical skill based challenge in a game show could be made in an audio
game. The Iphone (and possibly Android I don't know), offers some really
interesting analogue control methods, both in terms of sliding your
fingers around the phone, and in terms of tilting or rotating the phone.
I could imagine quite a fun game along the lines of a game show or a set
of small challenges that gave you those sorts of things, for example with
the dropping the lid on the cup challenge Nicol mentioned, have the cup
make a sound, and require you to move the Iphone around carefully in the
air in front of you to determine the cup's location and then tap fingers
to drop.
We've seen a bit of this. Sixth sense is a sterrio targiting arcade zombie
fighting game basically not to different from say the Tigers in Tarzan
Junior or the gun fights in Grizly gulch, however instead of just tapping
to a different direction and hitting a key, you have to directionally
slide your finger, streight up for center, 45 degrees right for middle
right, streight right for far right etc.
Nebula has you tilting the phone to targit space invaders etc.
It strikes me this would be the perfect way to make quite an interesting
gameshow type game with those sorts of varied actions and challenges,
using the aalogue control and movement of the phone to mimic a number of
games in one program in accessible form.
All the best,
Dark.
