Floating Puzzle (also known as Sea Stars and Puzzle Paranoia) is a recurring challenge from Survivor.

Rules

Survivors must race to obtain puzzle pieces out in the water. They would swim down and unhook the piece, then bring it back to the tribe. Once all the pieces are back, they would solve the puzzle. The first tribe to finish the puzzle wins.

History

The challenge debuted in as the second Immunity Challenge in Thailand, where Sook Jai put their flower puzzle together first and won immunity.

The challenge reappeared as a slide puzzle in the seventh tribal Immunity Challenge of Palau. Once again, Koror defeated a severely diminished Ulong and sent them back to Tribal Council.

In Panama, the challenge appeared as a Reward Challenge. La Mina took an early lead, but Casaya was able to beat them when they solved the puzzle first and win an outhouse and toiletries provided by Charmin.
