Season chronology

The second season of the Russian television mystery music game show Catch Me If You Can premiered on Rossiya-1 on 16 May 2025.[2]

Due to the former "breakaway" game show having related to its original counterpart Ya vizhu tvoy golos,[3] as well as a modified "battle format" actually implementing from the Vietnamese adaptation Giọng ải giọng ai,[4] which are both included as part of the I Can See Your Voice franchise,[5] it was also the second season of a unofficial adaptation and third overall in the Russian franchise.

Gameplay

The game is played in two phases, featuring two opposing teams — a team of four guest artists (known as "stars") and a team of mystery singers summoning in batches (known as "invaders").

Rounds

Lip sync phase

Each mystery singer performs a lip sync to a song; good singers mime to a recording of their own, while bad singers mime to a backing track by another vocalist. After the "stage of truth" performances, they are now allowed to talk freely.

If the guest artists guessed the mystery singer right, they get one to three points depending on each sub-round, otherwise the mystery singers did the same points have if they guessed wrong.

  1. Solo sub-rounds (batches 1–3)
    Each mystery singer individually performs a lip sync. At the end of each round, the guest artists are deliberated to predict whether a mystery singer is good or bad.
  2. Showdown sub-rounds (batches 4–6)
    A pair of mystery singers, donning in their "work attires", perform a lip sync of their own through a showdown. At the end of each round (until the following one below), the guest artists are deliberated to predict which one of the mystery singers in a single batch is bad.
  3. Trios sub-rounds (batches 7–9)
    Divided into three groups of three mystery singers impersonating by a designated artist, each of them have to perform a lip sync of their own.

Dark horse

A "surprise" mystery singer dubbed the "dark horse" (Russian: Темная лошадка), is appeared on the "stage of truth" to interrogate both teams of "stars" and "invaders". The highest-scoring team or both of two (if the game ends in a tie) would have do the same mechanic as the solo lip sync sub-rounds.

Depending on final result of its previous phase, the game is determined to conclude on two different scenarios:

  • If either guest artists or mystery singers guessed the "dark horse" right, they win 1,000,000 ; if either guessed them wrong, the main prize money is given to the opposing team instead; as for the case of mystery singers, that same prize money is split into 18 players, with 55,556 ₽ each.
  • In case of a tie and both teams eventually winning the game, that same prize money is split and would receive 500,000 ₽ each, with 27,778 ₽ per player on the mystery singers' side.
