MASTER MINDS

Here's How The Game Works:

Essentially, Master Minds pits three contestants against some of trivia’s top experts in a showdown of strategy and wits. The show is hosted by Brooke Burns, who many will recognize from 'The Chase'.

In the latest season of Master Minds, the six participants compete against each other in three rounds. These participants include three contestants and three Master Minds, with the winners of both groups facing off in an Ultimate Trivia Challenge.

Round 1

During the first round, you can expect to be asked seven questions spanning different topics that are each multiple choice. The participants must simultaneously and secretly lock in their chosen answers, with each correct question being worth 100 points.

Round 2

The second round comprises five questions, each on a different subject, that are all open-ended. The first four correct answers are worth 200 points each, and the final is worth 400 points. During this round, each contestant and Master Mind buzzes in with their response after the question has been read. The first contestant and Master Mind to hit the buzzer will get to answer. If they're correct, the points are added, but be careful because points are deducted if the answer is wrong. After the fifth question of this round, the lowest-scoring person from each team is eliminated.

Round 3

In round three, things start to get interesting. All questions are asked via the buzzer, and answers are given verbally. The contestants face off for one minute, and the questions are worth varying points, with the first worth 500 and each subsequent question worth an added 100 points. Much like round two, the answer must be read before anyone is allowed to buzz in, but unlike round two, points are not deducted for incorrect answers. Instead, the opponent can answer correctly and steal the points. At the end of round three, the person with the highest score wins $1,000.

Final Round
(Ultimate Trivia Challenge)

The contestant and Master Mind with the highest scores then face off in the Ultimate Trivia Challenge. During this round, the contestant has the chance to win $10,000 and get invited back for the next show by beating the Master Mind. Perhaps the most exciting part is that anyone who wins the $10,000 prize three times in a row will be invited back to become a Master Mind.
