Gameplay

Format

Presented with a group of six "mystery singers" that identified only by their occupation, a guest artist and a contestant must attempt to eliminate bad singers from the selection without ever hearing them perform live, over the course of several rounds. They are also assisted with clues regarding singers' backgrounds, style of performance, and observations from a celebrity panel. At the end of a game, the last remaining mystery singer is revealed as either good or bad by means of a duet between them and one of the guest artists.
The contestant must eliminate one mystery singer at the end of each round, receiving a petty cash if they eliminate a bad singer. At the end of a game, if the contestant decides to walk away, they will keep the money had won in previous rounds; if they decide to risk for the last remaining mystery singer, they win if a singer is good, or lose their all winnings if a singer is bad.
