Rules summary. The mole's duty is to sabotage the games, and prevent money from being added to the pot, while avoiding, or deflecting suspicion. Each episode, the players take a 20-question quiz about the identity of the mole.
Among the players is one person who has secretly been designated the Mole and tasked with sabotaging the group's money-making efforts. In the end, one player will outlast their competition and expose the Mole to win the prize pot.
To win the game, players take a quiz after every mission, and the player who answers the least number of questions correctly about the identity of the mole is sent home. That basically means that the players who are quickest to correctly identify the mole stay longer. Michael knew that Sean was the mole early on.

It's not scripted, but it's not entirely real either. Netflix keeps pumping out this sort of show, 70% reality, 30% people being told what to say or do, or at the very least being guided in a specific direction.
