You and your team have been sent into the ancient Temple of Amon Kha, where a famed explorer and his expedition have been cursed. Can you find your way through the ancient ruins, learn its secrets and discover how to break the curse?

🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE
The atmosphere and ambiance of the experience is comparable to the magic of Disney, with the larger-than-life design and overall immersion. Even the generator in the room would sputter randomly during the game simply for enhancing the experience.
With the all-tech puzzles and grand effects, the challenges could be seen by everyone and most of the time, it would take the entire team to complete them. This made sure everyone was involved and engaged.
Though this is Crypto's oldest room, it still holds up today. Even talking with the GM, it’s clear that they continue to maintain and upkeep the room, even adding an additional puzzle to keep it fresh.
One of the many standout things Crypto does well is they will subtly direct you towards key elements with lighting to ensure you are looking at what you need.
🧩 MISSED THE MARK
This was an amazing room with no misses that we experienced.
🏹 TAKE A SHOT?
Crypto Escape Rooms always delivers top notch experiences, and this one is no exception. Despite being their oldest, the Cursed Temple still is an amazing game with stunning set design, impressive effects, all-tech puzzles, and so much more. We played with 4 people and found it to be the perfect size for enthusiasts, but the space could hold more if you are looking to bring more. Anyone who loves an intricate set, collaborative puzzles or loves an Egyptian theme room should definitely give this room a try.
