The “Show do Milhão” program was one of the most iconic on Brazilian TV in the 2000s, a question-and-answer game show hosted by the greatest variety show host, Silvio Santos! Its huge success was due to the prize-winning questions, and who hasn't sat on the couch with their family to answer those questions?
To relive this great family entertainment success, SBT created the “Show do Milhão” app, so you can have fun through your smartphone. And just like the TV show, the app also allows you to win prizes.
Furthermore, to provide the same experience as watching the show, the app features the same soundtracks. It also includes the iconic voice of presenter Silvio Santos narrating the actions taken within the app. The game is available in two versions: a free version and a “Pro” or “Premium” version, where you register and pay a fee to be eligible to win real prizes.

But how does the “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?” game work?
The “Show do Milhão” app works with the same theme as the show, with questions and answers; if you watched the show, you won't have much difficulty playing the app.
As previously mentioned, you must answer the questions presented, which are usually general knowledge questions. Each question corresponds to a certain amount of money, which increases as you answer correctly. Each question has four options, one of which is correct, meaning a 25% chance of getting it right. As you answer correctly, the amount increases until you reach the question worth R$1 million.
One of the reasons for the program's great success. Just like the program, the app has special features, including:
- Help from university students: Where the game can help by showing the correct answer.
- Cards: Where the deck eliminates an incorrect option.
- Skip: The option to skip up to 3 questions.
However, you can select and eliminate topics you are less familiar with, and direct the questions to topics that are more relevant to you. It's a great form of entertainment that brings knowledge, and you can challenge your friends and test your own knowledge.
Is it possible to win by playing?
As mentioned earlier, the Show do Milhão app has two versions available, the free version and the Pro version, which you choose after installing the game. The free version has all the game's features unlocked. However, in the free version, advertisements are shown intermittently.
And the other version is the “Pro” or “Premium” version, for those who want a more realistic experience with the “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?” show, with the chance to win real prizes. For this, you need to register and provide your credit card to pay the monthly fee of R$9.90. Besides the chance to win prizes, this version is free of advertising, allowing for much more fun.
It's important to remember that, to be eligible for prizes, users of the PRO version need to perform well in the game. In other words, the more correct answers they get and the further they progress in the game, the greater their chances of winning coupons to compete for real prizes.
Download Who Wants to Be a Millionaire and start playing!
Downloading is very simple; the game is available on the Google Play and App Store platforms, your mobile phone's app store, Android or iOS. Just search for ‘Show do Milhão Oficial' and click download/install. However, we also provide a download link; click the button below:
Please note that the official version of the Silvio Santos channel for installing the app is the one produced by TVSBT Canal 4 de Sao Paulo S/A.
After installing the app on your phone, you'll need to provide some information like your name, etc., and create a login with a password. Once that's done, you can start playing and, in the voice of Silvio Santos, “compete for a million in gold bars, which are worth more than money.”
And to reiterate, the prizes won in the game are fictitious, meaning they are for illustrative purposes only and do not entitle you to any real prize, unless you have a Pro/Premium subscription, which will allow you to participate in the raffle tickets distributed in the app.
About the Show do Milhão App
The game is very easy to play and very intuitive; we tested and played it. The user has up to 30 seconds to give an answer or ask for help, similar to the television program. Our test was done only on the free version, and the feeling is that you are really participating in the program. This is due to Silvio Santos' voice and the game's layout; it's a lot of fun!
The option to choose the topics of the questions becomes an advantage for users, as it allows them to broaden their knowledge in a specific area. And by being able to test their own knowledge with this application, they can learn more, since they can see the correct answer if they get it wrong. You can pause the game at any time and return to where you left off without problems. Furthermore, the questions start at an easy level and the difficulty increases as you progress.
Unlike the older computer version, the questions are not asked randomly. There is a progressively increasing difficulty based on the chosen topic. Remember that the game only works when connected to the internet. Finally, we can say that the game is very fun and can be a great app to pass the time and test your knowledge, even learning from it.
Extend the fun!
If you have an Alexa at home, you can extend the fun! Gather your family and friends to play Who Wants to Be a Millionaire using Alexa. Say, “Alexa, open Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?”, wait for the game to open and start playing the show's soundtrack along with Silvio Santos' voice.
If any parallel games haven't been closed, Alexa will ask if you want to continue or end the game. Always wait for Alexa to finish asking the question and providing the options before responding. And if you need help, just say “Cards,” “College Students,” or “Skip,” and it will perform the desired action.
Finally, if you manage to reach the most anticipated question worth 1 million, you won't be able to ask for help even if you have it available. That's because it's locked, so you'll be relying solely on your knowledge or luck.
