Fantasy sports in America is a $50 million business with more than 15 million people playing every year. The vast majority of 18-34 year-olds who play spend two to three times the amount of time online than their non-fantasy-playing counterparts. Fox Reality´s "Fantasy Reality Challenge" brings the thrill of online gaming to the fans of reality television.
Fox Reality´s "Fantasy Reality Challenge" is LIVE and accessible for signups through the"Games" section on the home page of www.foxreality.com. Users become active participants with the programming by selecting up to six actual reality television contestants and then earn points based on the performance of those same people within their television competitions. Each week, as contestants from the TV shows are eliminated, Fantasy Reality players accumulate points based upon who remains on their rosters. If a Fantasy Reality user opts to alter his or her roster, they can do so, but any points earned by someone who´s dropped are lost forever. The longer a contestant lasts, the more points earned. Users can invite their friends into private groups where they can play against each other and chat or the game can be played against the entire Fox Reality community.
