Nyt kaadun!

Nyt kaadun! was a Dryicoran game show broadcast from 2012 until 2013 on Televiisi. It was the Dryicoran version of the American game show .

The show offered contestants the chance to win up to KR 1 000 000 (US$116,000) every weekday for five weeks in two series. It was filmed on the set of the Spanish version  in Madrid.

In July 2023, Telekuusi announced they would reboot the show, filming on the set of , the Italian version, with a slightly different format. The reboot, with original host Jorma Saarela returning, premiered in late November 2023.

Format
One player (the "hero") attempts to defeat 10 competitors ("strangers") in a series of trivia showdowns to win KR 1 000 000. The hero stands in the centre of the stage, with the ten strangers standing around the perimeter and facing in toward the hero. Each participant stands on a trapdoor. In each round, the hero selects one stranger to challenge in a head-to-head trivia battle. The host asks alternating questions, starting with the stranger, with a series of partially filled-in blanks showing the words in the correct answer. The participant has 20 seconds to give the correct answer, starting from the moment the question appears. The answer must be given as spelled out in the puzzle (although slight variations in pronunciations are allowed). Multiple guesses are allowed, as long as the correct answer is given before time runs out (even if it is given unintentionally while thinking out loud).

The hero is given two passes at the start of the game. Passing a question forces the stranger to answer it, with a fresh 20-second countdown. Strangers may not pass; they must answer every question put to them.

The challenge ends when a contestant misses a question; the trapdoor under that person's feet then opens, dropping the participant through the stage and eliminating them from the game with no winnings. If the hero drops, the victorious stranger wins 10 000 Kr (25 000 Kr in the eighth or ninth challenge, 50 000 Kr in the tenth challenge). If the stranger drops, the hero wins an amount of money between 1 000 Kr and 20 000 Kr, revealed on a screen at the stranger's position once the challenge is over. The value of each stranger is based on the difficulty that the hero is expected to face in defeating them.

Occasionally, a head-to-head round is introduced as a special round in which all the questions and answers share a common theme or word.

After five strangers have dropped, the hero is offered a chance to leave the game with all money won to that point, or stay in and try to win more. If the hero decides to stay in, they receive one more pass and will have another chance to leave after each subsequent stranger is dropped. Dropping eight, nine, or all ten strangers increases the hero's winnings to 250 000 Kr, 500 000 Kr, or 1 000 000 Kr, respectively. Any hero who chooses to end the game and keep their winnings has the option of leaving by walking out of the studio or dropping through the floor.

After the hero exits the game, the remaining strangers, including the one who defeated the hero if applicable, play a speed round among themselves. The host asks a question to each one in turn, with ten seconds on the clock instead of twenty. Each correct answer adds 2 000 Kr to a jackpot, while a wrong answer (or when the time runs out) drops the stranger with no winnings (although if the hero had been defeated, the stranger who defeated the hero still keeps their winnings). The last one left standing wins the entire jackpot. As with a winning hero, the winner has the option of walking out of the studio or dropping through the trap door. A Speed Round is always played and filmed when at least two strangers remain.

Reception
Reviewers praised Jorma Saarela's hosting of the format, as well as his input on the production. Saarela, who was better known as a scriptwriter than a game show host, was complimented for his easy-going presentation style and compared to ' hosting of the Spanish version. The Dryicoran Standard noted the gimmick of falling through the set didn't work well for Dryicoran audiences, but said that Saarela's style carried the show, in a three-star review.
