Frequently asked questions

How do you play Survivor Higher or Lower?

You are shown two real Survivor castaways and one stat category, such as total days played or individual immunity wins. Pick the castaway you think ranks higher for that stat. Get it right and your streak grows as a new challenger appears; get it wrong and the run ends. Your best streak is saved on your device.

Which stats does the game compare?

The game rotates through 5 categories: total days played across a castaway's career, number of seasons played, individual immunity wins, hidden immunity idols found, and best placement (framed as who made it further in the game).

Are the stats real?

Yes. Every number comes from real Survivor data for these 751 castaways: total days, seasons, immunity wins, idols, and placements are all drawn from their actual records. The matchups are randomized, but each round only pairs castaways with a clear difference so there are no unfair ties.

How is "best placement" scored?

In Survivor a lower placement number is better (1st place is the winner). So the game frames that category as "who made it further in their best season" and treats the better finish, the one closer to Sole Survivor, as the higher pick.

Does the game contain spoilers?

It only uses completed seasons and never reveals results from a season that is still airing, so there are no live-season spoilers.
