The Challenge: Twin Flames

***Twin Flames*** is the fifth season of *RealityMist*. This season follows fifteen rookies and fifteen veterans competing in a scorching Desert-themed game. The season was filmed in Igbo-Ora from the 3rd to 27th of March.

## Description

This March, RealityMist returns for it’s fifth season. With the Hall of Fame continuing to grow, becoming a Champion has never been more of a feat. This season, expect exactly that. A strenuous battle of wit, determination and power with adored traditions and all new twists, challenges and drama. Will you rise like a phoenix or be turned to ashes?

## Format

Each week, players will compete in daily challenges in their duos. Prior to each challenge, the duos will select which member of their duo will be the Red Flame and which member will be the Blue Flame. The winning duo will become the Accelerants, and will be safe from the following elimination. They must also nominate three players for elimination from their own flame colour. Then, the rest of the house will participate in a House Vote, where they will vote a member of their flame colour into elimination. Finally, each of the Accelerants must send one of their partner’s nominees into elimination. The four contestants in elimination will then compete in two 1v1 matchups, according to their flame colour for that week. The winning contestants return to the game and form a new duo, and the losing contestants will be eliminated. After each elimination, duos will be formed accordingly and are ever changing.

In the Final Challenge, three duos will compete. The prize money splits as follows:

* **Winners:** $500,000 ($250,000 each)
* **Runner-Ups:** $250,000 ($125,000 each)
* **Third Place:** $150,000 ($75,000 each)
* **Fourth Place:** $100,000 ($50,000 each)

### Twists

* **Flame Picking:** At the beginning of each episodes, members of each duo would assign themselves as the Red Flame or Blue Flame for that week. They would have separate Nomination and Voting Ceremonies accordingly.
* **Friendly Fire:** Rather than Accelerants sending one of their own nominees into elimination, they were required to select from one of their partner's nominees.
	+ **Redemption:** At the halfway point, the eliminated players had the opportunity to compete in a competition to return to the game.
	+ **The Conflagration:** In Episode 7, the Conflagration hit, erasing Flame Picking and instead assigning all players to a Purple Flame, allowing for a free-for-all voting ceremony and elimination.
	+ **Purge Challenges:** In some challenges, the last-place contestants will be automatically eliminated from the game.
