The parallel game of Temptation Island: now there is Fanta Temptation to bet on the competitors' moves

Fanta Temptation is the fantasy game inspired by Temptation Island. You start with 70 Trash Coins and you have to choose which competitors to bet on: the more they stand out during the edition, the more likely you are to win. Oh yes, basically it’s a slightly trashier version of Fantasanremo.

If in recent years Sanremo, Eurovision and even the Oscars have become a playground for fantasy gamenow it’s also the turn of television’s most famous journey into feelings. Yes, because del has also arrived Fanta Temptationa free game inspired by the Canale 5 reality show Temptation Island that allows viewers to create a team made up of the protagonists of the program and earn points on base to what happens during the episodes. A program on which a case has already exploded starting from a hardcore video with one of the couples. The idea is to turn each episode into a parallel competition: it is no longer enough to follow bonfires of confrontation, betrayals and twists, but we must also try to predict which competitors will be the real protagonists of the season.

The project, carried out in independent manner and with no connection to Banijay Group, Fascino PGT or Mediaset, it is already attracting a lot of attention. The game’s Instagram page has in fact surpassed the 17,000 followers in a short time, a sign of the interest that has been created around the initiative even before the start of the new edition of the program. We have some bad news for you though: Registrations are already sold outto play and create your own team you had to register before the start of the new edition.

How Fanta Temptation works: teams with boyfriends and tempters

To participate, all you had to do was create a team made up of four boyfriends or girlfriendstwo tempters or temptresses and choose one of the four contestants as captain. To purchase the protagonists of the show you have a budget of 70 Trash Coinsthe “baudi” declined to the world of bonfires, while the tempters are free and do not affect the budget. The lineup can be changed up to one hour before the first episode. The tempters, however, become selectable only twenty-four hours after the debut of the program and can be added until the start of the second episode. From that moment the team becomes definitive.

The paradox of Temptation Island: we are shocked by a hardcore video, but we tolerate the toxicity

Like many fantasy gamehere too the captain represents a fundamental choice. All the points obtained by the chosen competitor are in fact doubled, making it particularly important to identify the character destined to monopolize the bets. Even in the event of a tie it is the captain who makes the difference: the ranking rewards those who have obtained the most points with their captain and, if even this criterion is not enough, the team created first is favoured.

The scoring system: from bonfires to kisses

The scoring system is built around Temptation Island’s most iconic moments. Each competitor accumulates bonuses And malus depending on what happens during the episodes, transforming now classic reality scenes into real game events. There are psmall bonuses awarded when a competitor is called into the shed to watch a video, when he indulges in cuddles with a temptress, when he receives or applies sun cream (a great classic) or when he becomes the protagonist of a particularly provocative dance. Even one lonely walk on the beachsleeping in the tempter’s sleeping area or explicit appreciation towards one of the singles allows you to accumulate points.

The most important prizes, however, are reserved for moments that make the public discuss every year. A sentence destined to go viral is worth fifteen points (and the first episode gave away a couple), while a scene with objects thrown or furniture damaged in the village awards twenty. Even heavier are the symbolic events of the program: going outdoors with a tempter is worth twenty-five points, attempting to reach the partner’s village awards forty points (they will probably be assigned already in the next episode) and the same score is attributed to the kiss with a tempter or temptress. Even deciding to leave the program alone, without your partner, guarantees an important bonus.

Penalties for those who go unnoticed

Of course, there are more than just bonuses. Those who follow a particularly anonymous path risk losing points and seeing their team drop in the rankings. Among the penalties foreseen are competitors who discover during the bonfire that they have no video to watch, those who continue to deny the evidence even in front of the images, those who react with apparent indifference to a particularly strong video or those who cry without being able to convince the public. Even the attempters are penalized who leave the scene too soon because they fail to build a storyline. Then they exist two particularly heavy penalties: requesting the early confrontation bonfire and ending the program together with your partner without any particular twists entails a loss of ten points.

The game system: leagues between friends

As happens in almost all fantasy games, Fanta Temptation also allows you to create private leagues to challenge friends and colleagues. Each league can accommodate up to 30 participants and is accessible via an invitation code, while public leagues open to all users are also available. Each player can participate in a game at the same time maximum of five leagues and create up to three. The idea recalls that which in recent years has decreed the success of Fantasanremo: transforming the viewing of a television program into a collective game, where every kiss, every bonfire, every argument and every sentence destined to go viral can completely change the ranking.
