About this season
IDIOTEST, based on the highly popular app game, gives two pairs of contestants the opportunity to face off in several rounds of deceptively simple tests, whose answers actually require a keen eye, quick mind and heightened sense of logic. Every question involves a colorful and often whimsical scene that tests observation and attention to detail as much it tests general knowledge. Contestants play the game on giant touch screens in the center of the set, trying to win money…or at least not look stupid.
