These puzzles come in many forms, they don't all follow the standard pattern. For example, 1000 = words that a picture is worth. Your specification is too restrictive IMHO.

The game was played on Capital Radio (London) in the 70s always with that formula.
They became harder and harder as listeners became attuned. (No pun intended)
