• How It Works

  The cast is dropped in a remote location and split into two tribes. The tribes battle each week for immunity, and the loosing tribe must vote out one of their own members. Half way into the season, the tribe merge to form one large tribe. Individual immunity is the only guarantee of not being voted off. In recent seasons, they have added an hidden immunity idol that can also be put into play before the votes are read, but after the votes are cast. In the finale, the final two contestants face the eliminated contestants as they decide who is the ultimate survivor.
