## Season Summary

The twenty new players were initially divided into four tribes: Bamenda, Ebolowa, Foumban, and Idenau. In the beginning, Bamenda, Ebolowa, and Idenau found quick success in challenges, while Foumban struggled, losing three of the pre-swap challenges, and heading into the Tribe Switch with only two members. With the two Tribe Switches, original tribe bonds quickly dissolved in replace for new alliances. The tribes later merged with twelve players on Day 18.

After the tribes merged, the entirety of the tribe came together in order to vote out Peter, with Naomi throwing a vote onto Gino in the case of a Hidden Immunity Idol. Following the vote, sides would soon be formed as Miss World, Naomi, and Brittany tried to save their fellow tribe member, Gino, which proved to be in vain, as he was voted out in a 7-4 vote, leaving the three in the minority. However, Annie and Infernox would soon play the middle, as they constantly flipped between both sides, being the key factors in the eliminations of Wesley, Wham, and Brittany. Soon, Travis would become a major force, choosing to take out major threats in the game, such as Miss World, this would soon fall short as one of his allies, Naomi was evacuated from the game on Day 37. At the final four, Travis and Maxis targeted Annie, however, his main ally and ride-or-die, Infernox, voted for Travis, forcing a fire-making challenge. Annie won the tiebreaker, ultimately joining Infernox and Maxis in the Final Three, making Travis the final member of the jury.

At the Final Tribal Council, Infernox was criticized by the jury for wasting an opportunity of cutting his ally and the biggest threat in the game, Annie, while Annie and Maxis both received mixed emotions. Annie had a strong strategic and social game, but having a weaker social game and being unable to own up to his game, while Maxis was praised for having a stronger social game over the other two finalists and an honest speech, but criticized for not having much of a strategic game. Maxis' strong social game and honest speech beat out Annie's inability to admit to his game and Infernox's weaker game and was awarded the title of Sole Survivor in a 4-3-2 vote.
