The first season of Survivor got the ball rolling and interest in reality gaming started to grow.  The first season was more of an experiment in this new type of game.  Then, Survivor 2 came along, with improved gameplay, more players both from school and from the online world as well as a revamped site design that towers over the previous version.  Lastly, came Survivor 3: Rancho Alamitos, which blew the other two out of the water in terms of gameplay, partially due to the online challenges, and site design.  Taking a break from the same formula of Survivor, The Mole began, attracting up to 18 players in search of one member of the team who is sabotaging the team.  The site design is superb and the level of interaction between the players has grown tremendously.  With the use of digital cameras, challenges were recorded live and make for interesting episode summaries.
