Format: Each Round of Winners vs. Warriors will be one of the 8 different games from TRGG history: Survivor, Whodunnit?, BBUS, The Mole, BBUK, The Amazing Race, Solitary, and The Genius. Used in Seasons 8 and 14, this format will see some slight alterations that will be announced at the season premiere.
Method of Round Selection: TBA
Advantages: Various advantages may be available throughout the game. Advantages can be earned in various specified and unspecified ways throughout the game. Most advantages will be unexplained, except to those who receive them. However, one advantage, the Safety Sword, has been described in detail below.
Safety Sword: The Safety Sword can be used to avoid elimination. In Survivor, it can be used as a Hidden Immunity Idol and must be played before the votes are read in order to cancel any votes cast against the person it is used on. In Whodunnit?, it may be used to guarantee that you are Spared prior to the start of the Scared/Spared Ceremony. In BBUS, it can be used prior to either the initial nomination ceremony or the veto ceremony to avoid being put on the block. In the Mole, it can be used to receive an exemption prior to the Execution. In BBUK, it can be used prior to the announcement of the nominees to avoid nomination. In the Amazing Race, it must be used within 5 minutes of the completion of the leg to guarantee the user is not eliminated, regardless of their time. In Solitary, it must be used prior to the start of the Test, the user being required to forfeit the chance to earn immunity by Test to guarantee their safety. Finally, in The Genius, it can be used to receive a Token of Life after the conclusion of the Main Match, prior to the Death Match candidate selecting their opponent. It may NOT be used by the initial loser of the Main Match. When the Safety Sword can/can't be used will be reiterated in each round. Safety Swords expire at the start of the Final 4 round.
Format Descriptions
Survivor: Split between a variable number of tribes or as individuals, depending on the number of contestants remaining, everyone will compete in an immunity challenge. The winning tribe or individual will be immune from elimination, with the losing tribe attending Tribal Council, where one contestant will be voted out.
Whodunnit?: After witnessing a murder, contestants will choose one of three areas to investigate: The Crime Scene, The Morgue, or the Victim's Last Known Whereabouts. At whatever location they select, they will be given the opportunity to gather evidence. After this investigation phase, all contestants will have the chance to participate in a multi-part riddle. Whoever wins the riddle will be provided with extra information to aid them in solving how the murder was carried out. Finally, everyone will submit a write-up of how they believe the murder occurred. Those with the worst write-ups will be scared with one scared individual becoming the next victim of the season.
BBUS: Contestants will all participate in a Head of Household competition, the winner of which will nominate 2 fellow contestants for eviction. The HoH and their two nominees, along with 3 other contestants selected by random draw, will compete for the Power of Veto. The winner of the PoV will have the option to save one of the nominees from the chopping block, forcing the HoH to select a new nominee. Once the final nominations are in place, everyone, except for the HoH and their 2 nominees, will vote to evict one of the nominees from the game.
The Mole: One contestant will randomly be selected as the Mole. Their job is to sabotage the mission, a challenge in which all contestants must work together to prevent the mole from thwarting their collective efforts to succeed. If the Mole successfully sabotages the mission, all other contestants will complete a quiz, attempting to answer the question, Who is the Mole? The person who performs the worst on the quiz will be executed. However, if the Mole fails to sabotage the mission, or is identified by a specified number of contestants on the final quiz question, the Mole will be executed instead.
BBUK: All contestants will vote to nominate two fellow contestants. The two (or more, depending on ties) houseguests with the highest number of nomination votes will be nominated for eviction. The nominees will then face a public vote, the exact format of which will be announced during rounds in which this game occurs.
The Amazing Race: Contestants will participate in a race which consists of various tasks and decisions which will be explained in more detail in rounds that TAR occurs. Based on real world time taken, in addition to any penalty time racked up during the leg, whoever took the longest will be eliminated, with the fastest contestant possibly earning an advantage in the game.
Solitary: Contestants will be prohibited from communicating with each other in rounds of Solitary and will be identified by a random number. All contestants will participate in a challenge referred to as a Test, the winner of which will be immune from the Treatment, a challenge of endurance. Whoever quits the Treatment first by giving up or is forced to quit first by specified rules will be eliminated from the game.
The Genius: Contestants will participate in a Main Match, the winner(s) of which will receive a Token of Life, becoming immune from the Death Match. If only one person wins, they will be allowed to select a fellow contestant to also receive a Token of Life. The loser of the Main Match will then be required to select a fellow contestant, who does not posses a Token of Life, to face off against in the Death Match. The loser of the Death Match will be eliminated from the game.
