Genius Game (2025)
Genius Game is a 2025 high-stakes game-show series that brings intelligence, manipulation, and strategic thinking to the forefront. In this thrilling competition, eleven carefully selected participants enter a world of mental challenges, where traditional game formats are replaced with entirely original mind games designed to push the limits of logic and deception. Each episode introduces a new test, challenging players not only to solve complex tasks but also to analyze, deceive, and outmaneuver their fellow contestants.
Hosted and created by David Tennant, who also serves as “The Creator”, the show captivates with its blend of suspense, intellect, and human psychology. Joe Street takes on the role of the Dealer, presenting the games and managing their execution with a neutral but impactful presence. The core contestants, including Ken Cheng, Kishan Bodalia, India Loader, and others, must continuously balance alliance-building with betrayal, always aware that a single misstep could cost them the game.
Throughout eight gripping episodes, viewers are invited into a competitive environment unlike any other. The show’s structure not only emphasizes individual brilliance but also showcases the complexity of social dynamics. With cash on the line and reputations at stake, Genius Game elevates the traditional game-show format into a cerebral battle of wit and willpower.
