They will also take part in daily individual quizzes that will test different areas of intelligence in order to build a group prize pot of up to £100,000.
However, only the contestants themselves will know how well they have done, and it will be up to them to decide what information they choose to share with their competitors.
Across the series, the players must determine who is the weakest among them and eliminate them in a bid to keep the genuine assets and weed out those who are faking it in a bid to stay in the game.

The show aims to 'exploit preconceived notions about intelligence, playing on stereotypes and snap judgments to create a cast of characters who will keep viewers guessing', according to ITV.
Dyer, who previously starred with Atack in the Disney+ adaptation of the Jilly Cooper novel Rivals, said: 'This is a blinder of a game show and unlike anything I've seen before.

'Emily and I had a brilliant time making it and much like the audience at home will be, we were kept guessing right until the very end.'
Atack said: 'It's so exciting to be part of something this new and fresh.

'The chance to work with Danny again was a no brainer for me. We had such a laugh. Can't wait for everyone to watch, it's an absolute must-see.'

Teachers' reactions to Adolescence show ‘real problem' with schooling
Adolescence writer and co-creator Jack Thorne said teachers' responses to the hit Netflix series showed 'we've got a real problem in our country' when it comes to schooling. The four-part series explores misogyny among teenage boys and prompted a national conversation about online safety when it was released in March. Speaking at the Edinburgh TV Festival, Thorne said: 'I worked in a school, (executive producer) Hannah (Walters) spent a long time in schools, and we both had a real passion to talk about schools that aren't doing so well. 'And it was so interesting the response, because there was teachers going, 'That would never happen in schools', and then other teachers going, 'You've got that spot on'. 'And what that showed is, we've got a real problem in our country, because there's a certain level of schooling which is complacent about the schools that we're allowing to sink.' One of the episodes in the series is filmed in a school and shows Ashley Walters' character, DI Luke Bascombe, interviewing children who are friendly with 13-year-old Jamie Miller (Owen Cooper), who has been accused of murdering his school friend. Also in the session, Netflix executive Mona Qureshi, responded to Channel 4 news boss Louisa Compton accusing the streamer of behaving like 'TV tourists' earlier at the TV festival. Compton also called the channel 'proud parents' of Adolescence because of the opportunities they had given Thorne and actor and co-creator Stephen Graham over the years, according to reports. 'I don't think I'm a tourist,' Qureshi said. 'Nothing about where I am and where we sit and the conversations we had about and around Adolescence at the beginning really came out of anything other than us.' Thorne said he 'started out' with Channel 4, adding: 'I'm really grateful for Channel 4, but I'm excited that Netflix is moving into this space.' In March, Thorne, 46, spoke to Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer at Downing Street about the issues raised in the drama. This Is England star Graham co-created the drama with Thorne and starred as Eddie Miller, the father of Jamie. The series took months of preparation and rehearsals so that each episode could be filmed in one continuous shot, which was praised by viewers of the show. The show has received 13 Emmy nominations, including for its young star Cooper, for best supporting actor in a limited series.
