The show has a total of ten episodes, with each episode featuring different contestants trying their best to beat the course and win the prize.

What makes the show so captivating is the sheer intensity of the course and the presence of the defenders. The course is designed to be both physically and mentally challenging, featuring high walls, water hazards, and climbing obstacles, among others. The defenders add another layer of complexity to the game, acting as a formidable opponent to the contestants.

The show has received mixed reviews from viewers and critics alike. Some have criticized the show for being too intense and not enjoyable to watch, while others have praised it for its unique format and the sheer difficulty of the obstacles.
