A subverted pop culture elimination game where guests take turns sending items from a list of 16 into the incinerator, never to be seen again. Only one item will survive the incinerator, complicated by a special secret guest known as “The Engineer”, who bends the game to their will by wielding special powers and tossing ‘landmines’ at the players throughout the game.
