Format
Rainbow Rumble aims to test the players' knowledge, strategy, and luck. It is loosely inspired and based on the "Pot Luck" segment of Manzano's previous variety show It's Your Lucky Day, which the two hosts also hosted, during which players had to answer questions placed inside pots to win prizes, and be the first to get three points to win and a chance to win a showcase. At the jackpot round, the winning contestant must aim to reach the "end of the rainbow" to win a big cash prize.Gameplay
Each episode, a group of five players compete in a pyramid-shaped stage answering trivia questions of varying difficulty on each episode. Their sole goal is to reach the top of the pyramid in order to win cash prizes and the opportunity to win the jackpot prize of by arriving at the "end of the rainbow".The game is divided into two rounds: the elimination round named Rally to the Top, and the jackpot round named Rainbow Reveal.
Elimination Round: Rally to the Top
A group of five players compete on a 5-tier pyramid-like stage with 15 LED screens displaying varying cash amounts, with each tier having higher amounts than the previous tier. The cash prizes range from up to. Their objective is to be the first to reach the top of the pyramid and to bank as much money as possible, with or being the highest possible bank.The pyramid features single-colored tiles on the first three tiers, double-colored tiles on the first four tiers in the first season and the first three tiers in the second season, and triple-colored tiles exclusively on the fifth tier in the first season and the fourth and fifth tiers in the second season.
During this round, Rumblers answer trivia questions on a rally board containing 50 questions of varying difficulty and category, randomly placed. In some cases, the questions pertain to the group. The questions are identification-type in the first season, with image, video, and audio-based questions introduced in the second season.
Before the game begins, Luis has the sole option of selecting a number from the rally board. He may additionally give the decision to Negi or in rare cases, the Rumblers in some episodes, after which he will read the question corresponding to that number. Rumblers must swipe their sensors to answer a question. Correct answers allow them to move one step closer to the pyramid, while incorrect answers give other Rumblers the chance to steal.
If the Rumblers believe they know the answer to a question, they can interrupt Luis while he is reading it. However, it is recommended that they have to wait for Luis to finish reading the question in order to fully comprehend its context, and they have three seconds to respond. If a Rumbler answers correctly, they must roll the Die Rolling Machine to determine the color of the tile they will step on; additionally, they will have control over the next question on the board. In the event of a steal where the second Rumbler answers incorrectly, the question will be discarded, control of the board will return to the Rumbler who originally selected the question number, and Luis will proceed to read the next question.
Depending on the color land on the DRM and each player's stand, three scenarios can occur:
- If a tile is vacant, he or she can take it along with the money;
- If a Rumbler rolls a color that another Rumbler owns, a Tile Breaker round will begin; and
- If the color does not appear on the next tier, they must stay in their current tile, answer another question correctly, and roll another color to proceed.
The game continues until a Rumbler successfully reaches the top. To win the round and an additional ₱25,000, they must land on a red, green, or blue tile. If not, they must stay and answer another question correctly, and then land on one of the winning colors. At the end of the round, all Rumblers keep the money they saved throughout the game. Only the Rally to the Top winner can bank the values they earned on all five tiers, including the ₱20,000 on Tier 4 and the ₱25,000 on Tier 5.
Those who do not can only bank the value of the tile on which they stepped before the winner is announced, unless they were unable to step on any of the tiles throughout the game. Players who do not land on any valued tiles receive consolation prizes.
Lucky Tile
The Lucky Tile is a special tile that, when stepped on by a player, grants them an advantage and the opportunity to advance to a tile of their choice in the next tier. It is revealed to the audience first, before the round begins, and is only announced to the hosts, audience, and contestants via sirens and lights in the studio. If the Lucky Tile has not been stepped on for the entire round, Luis will reveal its location before the Rapid Rumble round begins. Beginning in the second season, the value of the Lucky Tile is doubled when a Rumbler steps on it.Rainbow ''Aginaldo''
First introduced in the second season, the Rainbow Aginaldo is a variant of the Lucky Tile twist in which a player can win gifts and prizes if they select a question number on the rally board that contains it. Five Rainbow Aginaldos are randomly placed on the board, and their selection is revealed to the hosts, audience, and contestants through the LED screen. Unlike the Lucky Tile, which is announced to the audience beforehand, Rainbow Aginaldos are not revealed in advance. This twist is only featured in new episodes aired during the Christmas season.Tile Breaker
The Tile Breaker round is triggered if the die on the DRM lands on a color that another Rumbler has already occupied. The Tile Breaker question requires Rumblers to identify the color of an object mentioned by Luis. If the challenged Rumbler correctly answers the Tile Breaker question, they defend their tile and keep their money. If the challenger responds correctly, they win the tile and the money.- For the first season, each challenger and contestant can fight for each occupied tile only once, except for the tri-colored tile, where this rule does not apply. In rare cases where both the challenger and the challenged Rumbler swapped places and then the challenger landed on the challenged Rumblers' color, the round will be retriggered.
- For the second season, rounds can be retriggered an unlimited number of times.
Jackpot Round: Rainbow Reveal
Rapid Rumble
Starting in Episode 2 of the first season, the Rapid Rumble round was introduced. The Rumbler has three seconds to answer each question, with only the first of its multiple answers accepted. Saying "Pass" is treated as an incorrect answer, and the game moves to the next question.- In the first season, correctly answering all six questions granted up to 72 seconds for the jackpot round. This is achieved by answering six questions, with two seconds added per correct answer. The first and 31st episodes did not include the Rapid Rumble round.
- For the second season, this time advantage was replaced with a free color advantage for the first DRM, awarded if the Rumbler answers three questions correctly in the Rapid Rumble round. The round ends if the Rumbler is unable to answer more than two questions correctly. The round can conclusively end; for example, the Rumbler answered first four consecutive questions incorrectly and there is no need to go on asking with the fifth and sixth question, concusively ending the Rapid Rumble. The round also ends the moment the Rumbler achieves three correct answers, regardless of whether these are consecutive.
