Let's Ask Transmanitain is a Transmanian interactive television game show competition program adapted from the original American format called Let's Ask America originally created and developed by Jeff Apploff, Casey Green, Ben Betts, Todd Stevens and Jim Paratore and developed by ??.

Gameplay
In the first round, there were four contestants, and each of them attempted to answer the four multiple-choice questions. In this round, questions had two possible answers. The host first read the two answers and then follows with the question. All four contestants had approximately 30 seconds to write down their answers onto the card included in their game kits.

Once all contestants had verbally acknowledged that they had written down their answers, the host asked them each to reveal their answers in a sequence determined by the producers. The host then revealed the correct answer, and each contestant that answered the question correctly was awarded the prize money assigned for that question. Contestants who answered incorrectly received no prize money. After the correct answer to the first question was revealed, all four contestants were given the next question.

The process was repeated with a total of four questions. The first question was worth Đ500, with subsequent questions increasing by that amount, up to Đ2,000 for the fourth question. The lowest scoring contestant at the end of the round was eliminated and left with nothing.

If there was a tie for the lowest score, a tiebreaker determined which contestant would be eliminated. The tied contestants played a special game called "Dash for the Money". The host would give the contestants a name of an item they had to find within their home. The contestant who found the required item last or failed to find the item was eliminated. Some rounds featured specific rules the contestants had to follow while searching for the item, a certain activity that had to be completed once the item was found, or starting in the Season 2, the host would give the contestants a question with two answers, and the contestants had to find the correct item related to the answer first to move on.

The second round was conducted in the same manner, with each question having three possible answers. Question values began at Đ2,500 and increase by that amount, up to Đ7,500 for the third question. Again, the contestant with the lowest amount of money was eliminated and left with nothing.

The third round featured the two remaining contestants competing against each other in a two-question showdown. Each question featured four possible answers. The first question was worth Đ10,000 and the second was worth Đ20,000. The higher-scoring contestant at the end of the third round was the winner and keeps the money earned, and the runner-up was eliminated and left with nothing.

Bonus Round
During the commercial break, the winning-contestant would write down a wager for the final question. The question was then presented along with four possible answers, and the contestant had to answer the question within 30 seconds. A correct response added the wager to the contestant's final total, while an incorrect response deducted that amount. However, if the contestant wagered all money earned to that point and answered correctly, the wager was paid out at 5-to-1 odds. (e.g., if a contestant wagered their maximum of Đ50,000 and is correct, the contestants maximum win up to Đ250,000).

In Season 1 only, a contestant who wagered their entire winnings on the final question and failed to provide a correct answer was given a Đ5,000 consolation prize (or merchandise if the contestant's final score was less than $2,000 before the start of the bonus round).
