The Floor is game show that premiered on Nine Network on 28 April 2025. Hosted by Rodger Corser, the series is an adaptation of the Dutch format created by John de Mol. Contestants challenge adjacent opponents in timed duels, aiming to take over their squares and expand their territory. The game progresses as players choose opponents and categories, with the ultimate goal of controlling the entire floor to win the grand prize of $200,000. [1]
The first season aired episodes twice weekly, on Mondays and Tuesdays at 7:30pm. The first season featured 81 contestants on a 9x9 grid. [2] On 24 October 2024, it was announced that Nine had ordered the series' first season at their 2025 upfronts. [3] Nine began applications for the second season's casting on 20 May 2025 after the success of the first. [4] [5]
Contestants stand on separate square spaces of a large grid on the studio floor. Each contestant has a category in which they feel particularly knowledgeable.
One contestant is chosen at random (via "The Randomizer") to be a challenger and shown the categories of all opponents whose territories share at least one side with their own, then chooses one of them to challenge face-to-face in a head-to-head duel. The specifics of the duel remain undisclosed until the challenger selects an opponent, with the format defaulting to visual unless specified otherwise by the host. The two contestants take turns identifying a series of images or words associated with the challenged opponent's category. They are each given separate 45-second clocks, only one of which runs at any given time, starting with the challenger. The contestant in control must give a correct answer in order to stop their clock and turn control over to their opponent. Infinite guesses are allowed without penalty, and a contestant may pass whenever desired; however, they must wait three seconds for a new image or text to be shown. Some categories are text-based, requiring contestants to perform tasks such as filling in the missing word(s) of a book title or song lyric, or naming the movie from which a famous quote is taken.
The first contestant to run out of time is eliminated from the game and gives up all of their territory to the winner, who inherits the challenger's category or keeps their own (if the challenger). The winner may then either challenge another opponent or return to the grid; in the latter case, a new contestant is selected as a challenger at random from those who have not yet played a duel. Once all the remaining contestants have played a duel at least once, everyone becomes eligible for selection as a challenger. When only two contestants remain, the final duel is played as a best-of-three, with the first contestant to win two rounds declared the champion. Each remaining category is used for one of the first two rounds only. The contestant holding more territory decides the order of the final two categories. If a third round is required, the contestant holding more territory decides from a list of three mystery categories not revealed until after the first two duels.
The game progresses over the course of a season with the grand prize awarded to the player who ultimately controls the entire floor. Secondary prizes are awarded throughout the season to the player with the most territory at the end of each episode after a certain number of duels(nine in season one). At the end of each episode, apart from the final episode, the contestant holding the most territory wins $10,000. In the event of a tie, the leaders share the money equally. The last contestant standing at the end of the final episode of the season takes over the entire floor and wins the grand prize of $200,000.
Contestants who achieve three consecutive duel victories (by electing to play on twice after a win) are awarded a five-second "Time Boost." This bonus can be added once to the contestant's clock at the start of any subsequent duel, with the exception of the final three-part duel, in which the Time Boost is not permitted and therefore removed from play.
Original categories are listed first & shown in boldface. Inherited categories are listed after the original category without boldface. A hyphen indicates a more specific topic in the associated category. The specific topic is italicized. Parentheses indicate what a category refers to if a colloquial phrase; it also specifies the category's style of play if specified to be non-visual or text-based (audio, association, etc.)
