That would be Wheel 2000.
I remember this one kids' game show that (I think) aired on Saturday mornings in the 90's, possibly on Fox. The game show part played almost exactly like Wheel of Fortune, but I don't think it was officially licensed.
The set was themed around a jungle temple, and had some sort of lore behind it. There was said to be some sort of monster that lived under the wheel, and when a contestant spun the equivalent of "Bankrupt", they were said to have awoken the monster and provoked it into eating all of their points. This involved light and fog effects coming from under the wheel.
