Here is everything we know about the show.

According to an official NBC press release, this is what the network says about the upcoming show:

“Small Fortune” will see teams of three friends compete in the smallest challenges for a chance to win big bucks. To win, players must face heartbreaking tasks set in real-world destinations that prove their precision and technique. From a shrunken sushi conveyor belt with small chopsticks (“Shrunken Sushi”) to a mini Ellis Island (“Statue of Liberty”), each team must demonstrate their skills on miniature playing fields. Challenges will require considerable dexterity and intense focus because with such small games, there is no room for error, as the slightest miscalculation or trembling can result in elimination. To take home the last small fortune, the teams that make it to the end face a final small but epic game. If players can control their nerves and avoid the slightest mistake, they’ll walk away with a big cash prize.

“I am very excited to present this very fun and exciting game show,” said Howery. “I have played the games and they are not as easy as they seem, so this show will be so much fun to watch. You’ll want to try some of these creative games at home. “

“Lil Rel’s energy, ingenuity, and comedic moment are sure to make ‘Small Fortune’ feel bigger than life,” said Meredith Ahr, President of NBC Entertainment’s Reality and Alternative Group.

“As you guide contestants through challenging challenges, the audience will be on the edge of their seats and giggling at once,” he continued.

The show will go into production later this year, presumably when the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) has passed.
