Escape: The Curse of the Temple
Description
The ceilings are collapsing and you and your fellow adventurers must work together to escape the ancient temple! Escape: The Curse of the Temple is a fast-paced, real-time dice game. It includes a soundtrack CD that keeps the tension high and tracks the time. Each player rolls five dice, trying to get the right combinations of symbols needed to move between rooms and complete tasks.
Each die in Escape: The Curse of the Temple features five symbols:
Black Curse Mask - set this die aside; you cannot roll it again.
Golden Mask - cancels the effect of two black curse masks, either for you or another adventurer in the same room.
Red Torch or Blue Key - use these to move between rooms, collect treasures, and activate crystals.
Running Figure - appears twice on each die and is required to move between rooms and activate crystals.
You can only escape the cursed tomb by revealing new rooms and getting rid of the cursed crystals that slow you down. Once you discover the exit room, all players must rush there and roll enough blue key symbols to overcome the remaining cursed crystals.
Escape: The Curse of the Temple is a frantic and incredibly fun cooperative game played to the beat of an intense, accelerating soundtrack.
The game is in English.

A thousand crowns for a ten-minute game? Seems like a pretty expensive joke. Is it really?
A fixed 10-minute playtime (tracked by an atmospheric soundtrack) means 10 minutes of non-stop dice rolling, tension, chaos, cooperation, and concentrated fun. One of the most original games I've ever played. It won't last you the whole evening, but as a filler, it's unbeatable. The only downside is the relatively large box size.
A thousand crowns for a ten-minute game? Without hesitation, Escape is a blast that's worth it!
Tisícovka za desetiminutovou hru? Zdá se to jako příliš drahá sranda. Je tomu skutečně tak?
Pevně daných 10 minut herní doby (které jsou odměřeny atmosferickým soundtrackem) znamená 10 minut nepřetržitého házení kostkami, napětí, chaosu, kooperace a koncentrované zábavy. Jedna z nejoriginálnějších her, jaké jsem kdy hrál. Nevystačí na celý večer, ale jako filler je bezkonkurenční. Jedinou nevýhodou je poměrně velký rozměr krabice.
Tisícovka za desetiminutovou hru? Bez váhání, Escape je pecka, která za to stojí!
