Here is a list of every known regular-play game where the leading contestants were tied after the Final Jeopardy! Round. Since November 24, 2014, this has resulted in a Tiebreaker Round; prior to that point, both contestants were returned as co-champions the following day.
As of June 2024, this is believed to be a complete list, as the pre-2004 list matches Ray Richmond’s reporting from his 2004 book This Is Jeopardy!; it said that 45 tie games had occurred prior to its publication at the end of Season 20.
(*) means that the game took place before dollar values were doubled in November 2001.
(†) means a game that is not in J! Archive, but has been confirmed to have occurred.
