When nobody plays their secret items in Survivor Ghost Island, it’s hard to keep up. With the merge coming, let’s look at who still has idols and advantages.

So far, Survivor Ghost Island is starting to shape up like Game Changers. With the exception of newbies this season and returnees in the past season, we’ve seen a strong pre-merge segment where a ton of fan favorites and strong players went home before the jury phase. Another thing that happened was that a ton of powers were found, but this season, just one has been used.

Before we get to the all-important merge episode of Survivor Ghost Island, we at Surviving Tribal will be bringing forth a few features to catch you up on the game so far. While we’ll talk about the players, the tribes and the stories of the season in other pieces, you can use this primer as a mini-catchup on the active and used Hidden Immunity Idols and Secret Advantages that have entered the game so far.
