Escape: Curse of the Temple

Played in 10 real time minutes, players will be frantically rolling dice in order to explore, and hopefully escape, a cursed temple. As the dice are rolled, players need to be careful not to get their dice locked by the curse preventing their escape. If they do, with some luck and partnership, they can hopefully find ways to break those curses and keep exploring. Once they have explored enough to find the exit, all players must successfully roll to escape the temple before time runs out. If even one player remains in the temple when the 10 minutes runs out, all the players lose the game.

Objective

To get all the players out of the temple before time runs out.
