How does 'The Trust: A Game of Greed' work?

In Season 1 of The Trust: A Game of Greed, 11 strangers are brought together and presented with a quarter of a million dollars ($250,000), aka The Trust. Contestants all start with equal shares of the money, and in an ideal world, they would cooperate for the duration of the game so in the end, they can split the money evenly.

But during their stay in the villa, they learn about each other’s backgrounds and personalities through a series of tests designed to stir the pot. Contestants might begin to dislike some of their peers and try to cut them out of the money.

While eliminations are not mandatory, the allure of pocketing a bigger share of the money may prompt contestants to send someone home. At the end of each episode, there will be a trust ceremony, where players will meet with host Brooke Baldwin individually to reveal whether or not they wish to eliminate someone. If a contestant votes to eliminate another player, they are not required to disclose this information to the rest of the group.

In this game, the majority rules, so it only takes one contestant's vote to eliminate another. But if there’s a tie in who to eliminate, then everyone is safe and the game continues. At the end of each episode’s ceremony, Brooke will reveal whether The Trust has been broken or not, and if so, which player is going home.
