Temple of Deception is a fast paced card game that is played in quick rounds. The Expedition Leader starts the journey of each round and aims to capture the Jewel as all other players try to eliminate, deceive and take the Jewel for themselves.
Gameplay: Each adventurer starts with one card in their hand. On their turn, the adventurer will draw another card and play an action to try to gain an advantage over the other players. Each action is different such as elimination cards, trap cards and cards for the adventurer to gain additional knowledge on other players.
Strategy: Temple of Deception is packed with strategy. How and who you play your actions on will determine each unique round. Should you slow play a strong hand or should you go for the early win? Should you setup another player or chance it yourself? Be careful as other adventurers aren’t easily going to forget the next round and will be after you!
Winning: Can you collect all four Jewel fragments? Each round you win, you receive a Jewel fragment. Collect all four and you will escape the Temple of Deception with the Jewel and win the game!
