Look out for Identity: the new gameshow on Channel 5 every Monday night, taking over Desperate Housewives 10pm slot. Simply put, this is a game, that relies highly on your instinct and face-reading ability. The contestant has to match identity of contestants correctly in order to proceed on.
In local context, this game show is perfect for fortune tellers. It may be tricky for some. For instance, a missionary worker was wearing a bikini in one of the episodes leaving us clueless of her identity. The adrenaline of rooting for the correct matches, will make you hype up. So stayed tuned! It is so much better than Deal or No Deal.
How the game works?
Extracted from Wiki.
Identity is a game show, hosted by Penn Jillette where contestants can win money by matching 12 strangers one-by-one to phrases about their identities.
A contestant is introduced to twelve "Strangers." After seeing the Strangers, the contestant is presented with a list of 12 Identities (facts including occupations, hobbies, ages, etc.), each of which applies to one, and only one, of the 12 Strangers. Based primarily on visual observation, the contestant chooses an Identity and tries to match it to the correct Stranger. In order to make a decision final, the contestant must "seal the Identity" by pressing their palm down on a provided podium after saying which Stranger matches that Identity. Jillette, sometimes after finding out the Stranger's first name, then asks the Stranger "Is that your Identity?"
The Stranger confirms or denies his or her Identity. Confirmation is often made in a manner pertinent to the Identity, either through a statement (e.g., a baseball umpire saying "Safe!"), or by demonstration (e.g., jumping rope).
