Escape: The Curse of the Temple – Queenie 15: New Quest Chambers is an expansion for Escape: The Curse of the Temple released in 2019 for 1–5 players, 10 minutes per game, and ages 8 and up. Its main mechanics are Dice Rolling, Tile Placement, and Modular Board.
This expansion adds three new Quest chambers: Riddle, Ascension and Guardian chambers The Riddle chamber (Quest) Players must solve the riddle of the four statues! When this chamber is revealed, the four statues are placed face down in the four spaces in the chamber. When players roll a set of symbols, they reveal the tile. Tiles must be revealed in the order indicated on the wall (blue, red, yellow, green). If a tile is revealed out of order, all statues are turned back over and players must start again. The Ascension chamber (Quest) In order to complete this task, players have to climb the steps in the chamber all the way to the top. Players must climb from the bottom of the stairs to the top in sequence. When one player at the base of the steps or on a step rolls the required symbols for the next step, all players at the same level as that player in the chamber may move up to that step. This continues until the players reach the top of the steps, completing the Quest. The Guardian chamber (Quest) You are not the only ones interested in the gems of the temple - the magical guardians are as well. When you enter the Guardian Quest chamber, one guardian token per player must be placed in the center of the room. Players may pick up one of these guardians by rolling two Green symbols, picking up the token, and placing a die on top of it. The player must then move to a chamber where a gem can be activated (regardless of whether the gem has already been activated or not), at which point the guardian is discarded and your die recovered. When all of the tokens have been delivered, the quest is complete.
