Master Minds will premiere on Monday, April 6 at 4 p.m. ET on Game Show Network and air weekdays.

If the contestant can get more questions correct than the Master Mind, they will win $10,000 and come back to challenge the Masters again. If they win three games in a row, they join the ranks of the Master Minds and will appear in future episodes.
