99 to Beat is a game show franchise that originated in Belgium and was first broadcast in January 2018. Versions have been developed in other countries. The game is based around an arena. The contestants compete with games played singularly, in couples or between teams.
The game progresses over the course of a season with the grand prize awarded to the player who is the last and wins the final game.
Format In the original Belgian version, 100 contestants compete over the course of a season. They go head-to-head in a series of ability challenges.
At the end of each challenge, the player who comes last has to leave the competition, which will add money to the jackpot, until just one contestant is left. The last contestant standing takes the jackpot home.
