The series has promised to be a “larger-than-life” adventure where contestants “embark on the road trip of a lifetime but have no idea of their location.” Truthfully, I see the appeal.
‘Destination X’ Teases An Adventure That Merges Fantasy With Reality
It’s not your ordinary game show, and you can admit that Jeffrey Dean Morgan is not your ordinary host.
According to the show’s synopsis, “viewers will follow contestants as they embark on the road trip of a lifetime but have no idea where they are. In order to win, they must figure out their mystery locations.”
The contestants, though they’re in a blacked-out “Destination X bus,” will be given clever clues, challenges and a couple of misdirects that is designed to keep them guessing, as well as help them decipher their location points on this “real-life game board.”
It further reads, “the end of each episode, contestants must guess where they are and the furthest from the actual location is sent packing.
The first participant to reach Destination X will be crowned the winner. With high stakes and mind-blowing spectacular gameplay, the series will keep viewers engaged and take them along for the ride.”
