Format
Each episode features a group of four players working together to complete a series of challenges. One of them has been secretly designated as the "Snake" and may attempt to sabotage the group's efforts while remaining undetected. At the start of the episode, host Bobby Bones meets with the group and gives them one clue to the Snake's identity. The group then attempts a challenge; completing it within a given time limit awards a second clue. Afterwards, the group spends the night at a campsite where they have the chance to find a third clue hidden in the area.
The following day, the group participates in a second challenge, receiving a fourth and final clue if they succeed. At the end of the day, the group meets at the "Snake Pit" where they discuss their thoughts on the Snake's identity. Each contestant then casts one vote as to who they believe the Snake is. If the three honest contestants vote correctly, they split $100,000 and the Snake receives nothing; if not, the Snake wins the entire prize.[1][2]
