Treasure Hunters was a short-lived reality show in which teams of three solve puzzles and complete challenges in hopes of solving the ultimate puzzle and winning the grand prize. Keep in mind this should not be confused with the similarly named Treasure Hunt.

Gameplay[]

Teams travel across the United States and Europe in search of seven "artifacts" which, when assembled, will "lead to the key. Find the key and find the treasure." The challenges and puzzles are spliced with American history and the ultimate goal is to find a hidden treasure leading the show to be compared on various occasions to the film National Treasure.
