How it works

  • Weekdays on TikTok LIVE

    Join your co-host's The Fronk and Tara every Tuesday and Thursday evening for the wildest game shows hosted on TikTok LIVE.

    Team work, chaotic games, surprise gift rounds and non-stop action. What's your strategy to try and win the Totally Awesome Game show?

  • Earn more on LIVE

    Everyone can be a winner! While only one player can be crowned champion each show, the majority of players earn more in the hour of the show, than a regular hour on LIVE.

    This is thanks to the unique LIVE gameplay, show production, the incredible T.A.G. audience and professional hosts to lead players and audience through the game.

  • You can be on the show

    Applications to be on the regular show are open to all LIVE streamers. If you meet the audio and visual quality criteria, you will be contacted by casting and given a show time and date.

Game Play

  • The Aim of the Game

    Collect points from the audience by winning mini games and make friends or foes with other players in an attempt to avoid elimination and make it to the Showcase Finale.


    The winner of each round chooses the person who will give out the next strike, and that strike can be given back to the winner - so alliances are key to success!

    In the Showcase Finale the two remaining players scores are reset to zero, and they battle it out to decide who champion of the show will be.

  • Shields and Strikes

    Starting Shield: Each player begins with one shield, represented by a circle on screen. The shield protects players from elimination.

    Losing Shields: If a player receives a Strike they lose their shield and become vulnerable to elimination, shown as an X on screen.

    Elimination: A player is eliminated if they receive a Strike without a shield.

    Room Control: Players compete in mini-games each round to take control of the room, and decide who will be the next Strike Master.

    Strike Master: The Strike Master chooses which player will receive the next Strike.

  • Strategy

    What's your strategy? Will you try to fly under the radar and avoid strikes, or go big and take control of the board and be the player choosing the Strike Master? Maybe you have some alliances planned that will get you through to the showcase finale!

    There have been many different strategies used by contestants to win the Totally Awesome Game show and thanks to the unique game play each show ends up completely different.

  • To participate in the Totally Awesome Gameshow, you'll need to achieve one of two levels of setup. Both are acceptable, but choosing the advanced option will improve your chances of being invited back in the future. Here’s what you’ll need:

    Minimal Set

    • Ring Light - The bare minimum for proper lighting.

    • Background - Use a clean surface, such as a white wall, to create a distraction-free backdrop.

    • Tripod - Required to keep your camera steady and hands-free during the show, ensuring a professional appearance.

    • Audio Quality - Test your audio by recording yourself using your device’s camera app. If you notice any echo, try adding sound-absorbing materials like a blanket or other soft items you have around the house to reduce the echo and improve clarity.

    Advanced Set

    • Softbox light - Preferred for creating smooth, even lighting on your face, reducing harsh shadows for a professional look.

    • Backdrops - Use wrinkle-free backdrops or a solid color LED Panel to light up a blank surface, adding depth and visual appeal to your background.

    • Tripod - Always required to ensure your device remains stable throughout the show, contributing to a polished presentation.

    • Advanced Audio - Enhance your audio quality by using an External Microphone paired with an Audio Interface. This setup will provide clear, professional sound that keeps your audience engaged.

  • no, that player can turn around and give the strike to you. So careful who you trust with the strike master role!

    • there are between 5 or 6 contestants on each show.

    • 1 host (top left) - The Fronk is the main show host (@thefronk on TikTok).

    • 1 on screen producer (top right) - Tara runs the music, scoring brings fun times in Taradise.

    • 1 off screen producer - we have an off screen producer who uses blu’s API tracking the order and timing of gifts and comments to ensure the winner of each round is accurate and fair.

  • It's great to hype up the rivalries and tension during the game, but remember it is only entertainment and everyone on the show should be treated with respect and as a collaborator.

    The more the cast on the show works together to make the game interesting and exciting, while also remaining professional and aware, the better the outcome is for everyone.
