The Alliance presents sixteen people living together at a luxurious location with each month one lucky winner going home with 100.000 euros. On The Alliance, participants must form four teams of four, and for one month, these teams will be each other’s allies (and share their own Alliance room). They must work together, and their goal is simple: play games and complete assignments, score as many points as possible and end up as the winning team of the month. But, they also need their points to make a living and spending too many points, could influence the end result… Allies are crucial, but they quickly become enemies towards the end of the month. Because that’s when only one participant from the winning team goes home with a guaranteed amount of 100.000 euros. But the winner is not the only one who must leave. One person from the worst-performing team will also have to go home – empty-handed. Each month starts with two new participants, a new team composition, a zero-point count and another 100.000 euros at stake. The Alliance is a captivating world of battle, strategy, teamwork and manipulation. Who will form the ultimate alliance? Because of its flexible structure, the series can be terminated or prolonged at any time after completing a month.
