We are standing outside Duomo di Milano, a beautiful example of historic, gothic architecture whose construction spanned six centuries; from the 1380s to the 1960s. Take a good look around.
This season, the veil between the mundane world and the mystical realm is thin, and the contestants will find themselves confronting the mysteries of tarot cards and the power of the paranormal. Tarot or tarocchi, descends from handmade playing cards back in Renaissance Italy, used for diversion and parlor games. The history and culture of this area is opulent, decadent, and rich. This is the birthplace of tarot, this is Milan.
In today's modern world tarot is used as a tool for introspection, to explore and question one's self. Dazzled with incense, gems and precious stones, where you pick cards to help you reflect on possible answers, and interpret the meaning of each card in relation to your life. However, this is a big change from being a simple Renaissance card game.
Today, we merge the past with the present; iSurv1vor, the social-strategic game meets divine intervention. Beware - this season is full of twists and turns, with challenges that will test the limits of physical and mental endurance, and unexpected interventions that could change the course of the game. The forces of fate are at work, and our castaways will need to rely on their intuition and their connection to the unknown to stay ahead. Soon, a new group of players will be divided into tribes as they start their journey underground. Yes, underground.
During the shift from tarot being a card game to an esoteric and mystic practice, it's enthusiasts had to protect themselves, as to not offend the Roman Catholic church and face persecution. Today, we take this idea to a whole new level, an underground level. For the first time in iSurv1vor history we are stranding each tribe underground. Below this very land are miles and miles of tunnels, crypts, and bunkers. For the next thirty-nine days you'll be living underground in World War II fallout shelters, connected by a maze of passageways and tunnels. This season is not for the faint of heart.

Now that the north and south territories have been divided, this season's twist will have each of you hoping that cards are in your favor.
At the start of each episode, tribe members will have an opportunity to visit a fortune teller who resides deep in the heart of the bunker. In each fallout shelter, Production will reveal a table with items on it. The amount of starting items will match the number of castaways your tribe consists of, and will be adjusted accordingly if you lose someone. First, each tribe member will be tasked to choose one of the items. Only one person can claim an item, and selections must be completed by the start of the immunity challenge for that round. Once selections have been made, the fortune teller will ask the crystal ball to select one item on the table. If you claimed the item that appears in the crystal ball, you will go on a journey to meet with the fortune teller.
One member from each tribe will visit the fortune teller per episode. What happens next? Well, that's for the fortune teller to reveal!
Candles dimly illuminate some of the bunker, but the underground is still dark and dreary. You will be living in darkness for the next thirty-nine days. However, since we are i1 we have invested in a generator, but it only boots up for twenty minutes, right before tribal council. Because of this, tribes will only know if they won or lost the immunity challenge, twenty minutes before tribal council commences. This season it is imperative to plan accordingly and play your cards right in order to survive the vote.
This season during the pre-merge phase of the game;
9:00pm EST challenge results will be announced.
9:20pm EST all tribal council's will take place.
Now, before we send you off to your tribe bunkers it is important to note that crystals and gemstones are a vital part of modern tarot culture. They stimulate higher levels of spiritual communication, motivate intuition, encourage relaxation, cleanse and recharge, and serves as protection against negative energies. This season, these gems will represent each of our starting tribes.
Living in the northeast side of the bunker, the Ametista tribe will wear the purple buff, representing tranquility, consisting of;
Living in the northwest side of the bunker, the Rubino tribe will wear the red buff, representing passion, consisting of;
Living in the southeast side of the bunker, the Perla tribe will wear the white buff, representing wisdom, consisting of;
Living in the southwest side of the bunker, the Zaffiro tribe will wear the blue buff, representing royalty, consisting of;
This season of iSurv1vor promises to be a journey of wonder and discovery, where the boundaries of what is possible will be stretched to their limits. Divine Intervention and power is hidden within the walls of this bunker. May the cards be in your favor. Who will rise to the challenge and emerge victorious? Who will be lost in the mists of mystery and fate? Tune in and be transported to a world beyond the ordinary - the underworld, where anything can happen, and everything is possible. The game is on.
