Gefragt – Gejagt

Gefragt – Gejagt (Asked—Chased) is a quiz show that has been broadcast on German television since 2012 (on NDR Fernsehen from 2012 to 2015 and on Das Erste from 2015 onward).

Before the start of the question and answer session, they introduce themselves in one sentence and formulate an announcement to the chaser.

The chaser takes a seat on an elevated podium, in front of him is a back list game board with seven fields.

The game starts on the top field, after which the answers obtained by the contestants are converted into a sum of money.

They must attempt to bring the winnings into their bank by correctly answering multiple choice questions.

A correct answer brings the contestant or the Chaser one step down the board, while an incorrect guess or lock out leaves them where they are.

If the contestant successfully reaches the bottom of the board without being caught, they advance to the final and their money is added to the prize fund (or deducted if the amount is negative).

If they are caught at any point by the Chaser, the game ends, and the contestant is eliminated and the money earned is lost.

If the hunter makes mistakes or says ″stop″, the players remaining in the final round can briefly discuss the correct answer.

If the chaser does not achieve the number of points scored by the team, the contestants will actually win the displayed amount.

The questions put to the players and the chaser are not identical, but they have been compiled by the editorial team from the same area of knowledge and with a roughly uniform level of difficulty.
