What Is “Switch”? 🤔

Switch is a fast-paced trivia game with a twist:
one correct answer can completely change your position in the game.

Here’s how it works:

🎯 Five contestants stand behind numbered positions 1–5
❓ After each trivia question, players who answer correctly move toward #1
❌ Players who answer incorrectly move toward #5
🏆 Whoever ends Round 3 in the #1 position wins and advances to the final round
💰 Final round prize: $10,000

The gameplay is unpredictable, competitive, and packed with energy — perfect for trivia lovers who thrive under pressure.

The show is hosted by Jeff Hephner, known for his charismatic and engaging presence.
