| Survivor Gameplay | |
| Description | The ability to have a minor advantage in the upcoming challenge. |
| Appearance(s) | 'Survivor: Kiribati' |
The Power Key is a game-changing twist that is first featured in Survivor: Kiribati. It is earned by the winners of the previous challenge and they are granted the option to use it in the next reward or immunity challenge.
Usage[]
The key was given to the tribe that won it as a reward. From that point on, at every challenge, an advantage was offered to the tribe with the power key. When a tribe uses the power key, it goes to the other tribe to use in a future challenge. This was done until the merge, where this twist was retired.
