A Completely Innocative and Exciting New Development in Television Games! “BRAIN ATHLETE” is not a quiz show to test your intelligence or knowledge nor your physical ability. It challenges your mind sharpness. It’s an ultimate game for people with fast-working brains!
Contestants --- or athletes --- who have confidence in themselves as quick thinkers gather at "Brain Athlete" to prove their brightness in brain-twisting games inspired by sport games! No need for high educational backgrounds or no need to be physically fit because it only requires contestants to be quick off the mark.
In each round, athletes face sport-based games requiring them to respond quickly to the questions in "Brain Athlete."
Brain Dash
It's a short-distance sprint --- using your brains, of course!
2 athletes, each on a cart, go head-to-head in this track race in which athletes need to call out answers to a multiple-answer question fast and correctly until they cross the finish line. The quicker an athlete answers, the sooner the cart gets to the goal. Swiftness in thinking and spilling out answers are the keys to winning this round.
Brain Steps
Questions are given while an athlete on a cart is moved left and right as if he/she is doing side steps. No time for an athlete to ponder, for he/she needs to answer as many questions as possible in a limited time.
Brain Scrum
Just like a rugby match, 2 athletes compete in a scrum game in which each correct answer pushes the opponent back by a block. The one who is able to push back the opponent to the far most end is the winner. Exciting seesaw struggle between the two will add heat to the show!
Brain Push
2 athletes, each standing on a cart, face each other with 6 gigantic letter blocks in the middle. The object is to come up with a word using the letters in front of them. The more letters a contestant uses, the farther the blocks move toward the other player. Just like sumo, the player who pushes all the letters to the other side and forces the opponent out becomes the winner in this bout.
Brain Shot
Instantaneousness is required in this round. A contestant must utter 3 words starting with the letter called out. It's a millisecond-battle!
Brain Athlete takes game show to a new level by mixing sports and quizzes!
On your mark, get set, go!
