“The Anonymous” is a new reality game show on USA Network, in which 12 participants compete to outsmart by playing deceit and keeping their identity secret. The player who survives the game at the final wins a cash prize of $100K.
According to executive producer Tim Harcourt, The Anonymous is a social strategy game.
To fit the show theme, players can interact anonymously behind the digital handle in the platform called The Hideout.
In their pods, the players try to identify other players and handles. Those who can best keep their identity secret leverage to decide the fate of other players in the game forward.
When the contestants are in the real world, they try to be nice to everyone but reflect their real or unfiltered thoughts on others while in The Hideout.
Another producer of The Anonymous, Toni Ireland, says that the participants live in a smart house called DANI (Digital Anonymous Network Interface), which controls everything and instructs everyone what to do and what not.

To survive the game, players need to keep a good relationship with DANI, as it can shift the gameplay wherever it wishes.
Also, every episode has an elimination, promoting more drama and action in the show.
Highlights
- The Anonymous will be played in two worlds: real and anonymous.
- Players need to maintain good relationships with everyone while living in the quarter, but they can expel natural faces in the hideout.
- Twelve participants strive to survive in the game for $100K.
