Temple Code

Archaeologists use deduction and compete to find combinations of statuettes in this game for 1-4 players, Ages 8+

Face rival archaeologists in a race to unlock an ancient temple's forgotten secrets. Before you can lay hands on the invaluable treasure it's holding, you have to deduce the combinations of statuettes unlocking the hidden vault!

At the beginning of Temple Code, each player receives a combination card with a series of three unique statuettes that everyone can see but themselves. Each round, two combination cards are dealt face-up in front of each player. On your turn, pick a set of cards in front of another player, then take one for yourself and give them the other one. By aligning this card next to the one you're trying to guess, you will get hints about the matching statuettes: each blue circle indicates a statuette that is on both cards at the same place, and each orange triangle stands for a statuette that is on both cards, but in different positions.

At any time during the game, a player can guess the card in front of them. Whether they guessed correctly or not, they receive a new combination card to guess.

Whoever first correctly guesses two combinations wins.
