There are challenges the contestants do as a team. If they lose in the challenges, the prize fund goes down. There is also a temptation room. When selected the contestant enters the temptation room and must stay in the room for 30 minutes alone with no communication with the other contestants. If a contestant gives in to temptation the prize fund goes down. Eliminations usually happen by the other contestants voting. With five contestants left a challenge is played. This time instead of money being at stake eliminations are at stake. The challenge is played until two contestants are left. At the start of the game the contestants were told there can only be one winner, however in a twist the last two contestants left are given a split or steal dilemma.
