Braille Maze (also known as Fiji Braille Maze, Blind Maze, and Going Blind) is a recurring individual Immunity Challenge that debuted in Survivor: The Amazon, and has since reappeared in Fiji, Heroes vs. Villains, and Worlds Apart.

Rules[]

Each contestant is blindfolded, and must make their way through a maze whilst accomplishing given tasks (typically collecting medallions). Throughout the maze, raised signposts with Braille insignias help to point the castaways in the direction of items or the end of the maze. The first contestant to accomplish all the required tasks and reach the end of the maze wins the challenge.

History[]

United States[]

The challenge debuted in The Amazon as the final four Immunity Challenge. The contestants were required to locate four medallions representing the four elements (water, earth, fire, and air) and return them to the center of the maze. Jenna Morasca won the challenge, winning her third individual immunity.

In Fiji the challenge was extended and modified. Each contestant had a uniquely shaped key that fit into a unique gate. The key unlocked the gate and dropped a drawbridge to permit access to the next stage of the maze (which grew larger and more complex over the five maze stages). Yau-Man Chan won the challenge and his second individual immunity.

The challenge next appeared as the Final Immunity Challenge in Heroes vs. Villains. The contestants had to collect four necklaces (again representing the four elements) scattered throughout the maze, then make their way to the Immunity Necklace located at the maze exit. The challenge reached a nail-biting finish, as Russell Hantz edged out Parvati Shallow and Jerri Manthey by mere inches to claim immunity.

The Heroes vs. Villains format reappeared at the final five of Worlds Apart. Having received the advantage of practicing the maze earlier with the aide of his mother after winning the Loved Ones Challenge on Day 36, Mike Holloway blazed ahead to clinch his fourth individual Immunity Challenge win.

Quebec[]

The format from Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains appeared as the Final Immunity Challenge of Survivor Québec (2023). Nicolas Brunette won his first individual Immunity Challenge and secured himself a spot in the Final Three.
