On November 18, 1974, the format changed to have celebrities play the game but without contestants though still hosted by Allen Ludden.

Both celebrities on the winning team got 20 seconds to convey two passwords (one for each celebrity) to each other and score 20 points. The winning team's score was given to both celebrities who then became clue givers for the next elimination round.
