Legends of the Hidden Temple	comment	Long ago, in the distant era of the 1990s, a children's television network with studios in Orlando (at the time) was starting to rise in popularity. They created and promoted many programs in multiple media, from Live-Action TV to Western Animation. During this time, they decided to seize the popularity of the Game Show — television programs where individuals or groups participated for currency or grand items. The network created a world where the boundary between video games and reality vanished and a studio where insanity came in the form of green goop and obstacle courses. But it was not enough...They decided to hire a glorious and adventurous man to take charge of their next project, known by mortals as Kirk Fogg. The set was then created from various props and endless construction, proudly showing off its Temple of Doom theme. A duo of producers, Scott Stone and David Stanley, known for their own counterpart to the green goop in the form of a house, and a wacky, 2-story shopping center came onboard the project. Finally, the rules were written after endless brainstorming, allowing six pairs of children to go through treacherous pits, climb high walls, and venture into a dangerous and difficult tomb which includes the King's Storeroom, the Observatory, and the Shriiiine of the Silver Monkey... I, Olmec, stand before this creation, spouting my vast knowledge of mystic legends and guiding the players for their rewards.Now this area where literary devices found in various media are recorded has chosen this program. It is up to you to find those devices that fit, using your memory and research skills. The choices are yours, and yours alone!It also seems that my legend was made into a movie for the small screen 21 years after the closure of my original tales and challenges. This one expands on my backstory of my people and I and the brave escapades of three youths who venture into my temple and brave its dangers to restore my kingdom and save it from one of my treacherous sons. It premiered on the day of Thanksgiving in the sixth year of the 2010s. A year later, Kirk Fogg and I appeared in animated form in a special crossover episode of The Loud House. 8 years after that crossover, it was announced that adults who had grown up hearing the legends would get a chance to attempt to make their way through the temple in a reboot exclusive to Quibi. After the service shut down in December 2020, The CW took on reins for the reboot. It premiered in October 2021 with Cristela Alonzo hosting. Sadly, the Temple Gates were closed on the reboot after just one season of 13 episodes.

Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_14beeefd	type	Darker and Edgier
Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_14beeefd	comment	Darker and Edgier: The 2021 version compared to the original. Since all the contestants are adults, the Legends themselves are more willing to outright say how gruesome the Legends are, complete with blood shown during the comic scenes. The Temple Run also has several rooms involving skeletons, including needing to dig your hand inside a bunch of lynched skeletons in order to find the one "with the still beating heart." The Temple Guards are also played up as much scarier. Not only do they have darker facepaint on, but whenever they attack, the camera will zoom in on a quick close-up of the Guard as they screech into the lens.

Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_15da4941	comment	Badass Adorable: Some girls are this, like Purple Parrots Tarrah from "The Milk Bucket of Fredyis" who soloed the entire temple, punched pots in the storeroom and got up after swinging across the pit and slamming her face into the side which caused her to fall and break the bucket while making it out of the temple with one second left. Kirk said it best, "She wants to be a cop." Another girl, Blue Barracudas Missy from "The Heart-Pillow of Anne Taylor" also soloed the entire temple but only had one medal compared to Tarrah's two. Bonus points in that she had been nervous the entire show and was shown having to calm herself down prior to entering the Temple itself.

For example, the Thornwood Gavel of Judge Roy Bean was placed in the Jester's Court, and the Dried Apple of William Tell was placed in the Room of the Ancient Warriors. Because of the various room changes throughout the show's run, some placements were more subtle still — the heart-shaped Lucky Pillow of Annie Taylor was placed in Medusa's Lair, which was a replacement for the Heart Room.

Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_21e5b9c7	type	Failed a Spot Check
Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_21e5b9c7	comment	Failed a Spot Check: Occasionally happens when a contestant passes up a half pendant in season 2 or 3 (given those were more visible than the hidden ones on season 1). This has lead to at least one terminated temple run via the third Temple Guard, who will not accept a half pendant; they need a full pendant, or the contestant's out of there. Also happens when the contestants don't immediately spot the artifact (With the Golden Pepperoni of Catherine de Medici being the most infamous example) Occasionally, Temple Guards in the Cave of Sighs and the Swamp are visible before an encounter. This trope is mostly played straight in the Swamp. There's a door from the Shrine of the Silver Monkey that leads down to the Tomb of the Ancient Kings/Dark Forest but even when it opens, 9 times over 10 the contestants will overlook it and go the long way around.

Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_23473ae7	type	Adaptation Expansion
Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_23473ae7	comment	Adaptation Expansion: So much in the 2021 CW version, to accommodate the contestants being adults instead of kids. For starters, the show is now a full hour rather than a half-hour. It's also played entirely outdoors rather than in a studio soundstage. In the original, the Legend was only elaborated on right before the Steps of Knowledge. In this version, the Legend is relayed all throughout the episode before each segment. The Moat in the original was just a simple "Get across the pool in a different way" challenge, but this one turns it into a full-on obstacle course. In the pilot alone, the Moat had five different steps the players had to complete before moving on. The game is also played on an actual lake rather than a big pool. While there are only two Temple Games rather than three, they have been heavily expanded now. Much like the Moat, these are full-on obstacle courses and include several steps the players need to complete in order to win, unlike the original where every Temple Game was essentially a Fetch Quest. Olmec's Temple in this one is massive, about the size of a theme park attraction. Each room is significantly larger than the original (obviously, due to accommodating full-grown adults rather than kids) and features more elaborate gimmicks than before. Due to this, teams now have four minutes to complete the run instead of three. Averted in two areas, however. Instead of six teams, there are only four. The Steps of Knowledge is also basically the same as the original, except for one less team and no lights on the bottom step.

Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_26589ace	type	Show the Folks at Home
Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_26589ace	comment	Show the Folks at Home: When the room the artifact of the day was hidden in was announced by Olmec, the camera would pan to a close-up of the artifact sitting in the room in question. On Seasons 2 and 3, a diagram of the Temple was displayed onscreen during the run with a flashing yellow dot indicating the artifact's location. This was averted on one occasion, in the season 2 episode The Secret Battle Plan of Nathan Hale. The first three rounds (Moat, Steps of Knowledge, Temple Games) of the episode were taped on the first filming day of the season. At this point, the artifact was intended to be hidden in the Throne Room (while this was never outright specified, the artifact can be seen in the room during the Temple Games). For unknown reasons, the taping of the temple run was postponed and rescheduled for later in the season. By the time the run was able to be taped, the Throne Room had been replaced with the Laser Light Room, so the artifact was relocated to the Shrine of the Silver Monkey. However, also for unknown reasons, instead of quickly filming a close-up of the Battle Plan in the Shrine, the shot of the Shrine normally used during Olmec's rundown of the temple's rooms was used instead.

Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_33ca811a	type	Game-Breaking Bug
Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_33ca811a	comment	Game-Breaking Bug: In "The Lion Headed Bracelet of Chandragupta", this happened with the King's Storeroom. The girl found the right keyhole, there was a sound of something opening, but nothing did. She had to push down the stone slab that was supposed to drop with her foot in order to continue. In "The War Fan of the Forty-seven Ronin", one of the Temple doors wound up closing (and relocking) behind one of the contestants as they passed through it. They get ejected from the temple, their partner goes in... and cue looks of confusion and/or frustration as the door their partner just passed through is now sealed off. They eventually got the door to reopen, but by then it was too late. One of the contestants later stated in an interview they were given both of the extra prizes as a consolation, instead of just one for not reaching the artifact. In "The Imperial Purple Robe of Empress Theodora", the object was located in the Mine Shaft and the locked doors forced the team to have to enter the room by elevator from the Viper's Nest. However, the contestant got on with just over 10 seconds left and the elevator kept stalling on the way down. Despite the contestant attempting to reach down to grab the robe as it slowly traveled, it was just out of reach and time ran out. The design of the Temple created some problems for a few kids, since it would appear they designed, built, and tested the Temple with adults. The Jester's Court and Shrine of the Silver Monkey were especially bad. Some kids just couldn't reach the pieces of the monkey, or the buttons on the painting. A inversion to this occurred once, with "The Mask of Shaka-Zulu". When the player hit the switch for the door leading into the room with the mask, the door opened when it was obvious from a production standpoint (i.e. the camera wasn't ready for it and Kirk Fogg was clearly shocked) that it wasn't supposed to happen. It's credited for being the fastest successful temple run.

Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_4a9c731e	comment	When Trees Attack: One of the anthropomorphic trees in the Dark Forest could "contain the spirit of a Temple Guard," which would seize any player who searched it for a key needed to open the next room. Which tree it was could only be guessed. Fortunately, the tree counted as one of the three guard limit, so a team with less than two pendants could still trigger the other two guards and have a chance at completing the run if the temple was run in a certain directionnote if you entered the Dark Forest through the Jesters' Court, you could choose to risk searching for the key to get into the Shrine of the Silver Monkey (bypassing up to two rooms in the process), or burst through the wall and take the longer path through the Quicksand Bog. If you were trying to get into the Jesters' Court from the Dark Forest, you had to search for the key.

Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_4f4372e9	type	Early-Installment Weirdness
Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_4f4372e9	comment	Early-Installment Weirdness: Season one had a much brighter, cleaner, kind of orange tint than the next two seasons, as well as the set not being covered in wildlife and billowing fog. The temple structure was quite different; the Cave of Sighs, later the Ledges, could be entered and exited, and the temple gate consisted of two large columns rather than an actual gate, as well as the actual staircase leading into the temple behind Olmec's head being significantly closer to ground level. A number of rooms in the temple didn't require a task to be completed to move on; the player merely had to hit a button (or, as the show called it, an "actuator") above or next to the door. Kirk also wore khaki shorts rather than jeans, and his delivery and commentary were a lot more rough around the edges; this might have been why the next two seasons had Olmec himself deliver the instructions for how to perform each Temple Game and how to cross the moat, which were Kirk's duties in season one. Olmec didn't speak much in the first season, only during the opening spiel, the Steps of Knowledge round, and giving the temple routes. In seasons 2 and 3, he became much more vocal and gave out the instructions for most of the rounds save for the Steps of Knowledge. Olmec was also much less of a Large Ham in the first season. Season 1 didn't feature the mini-map of the temple layout and the contestants' progression that would become standard after that. Lastly, the contestants' helmets were goldenrod rather than metallic gold and instead of wearing jeans during the Temple Games/Temple Run they wore khaki shorts/goldenrod sweatpants, respectively.

Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_5900e30d	comment	Tiebreaker Round: If two teams were tied for pendants after all three of Olmec's Temple Games, they go to the Sudden Death Podium and answer Olmec's final question to advance to Olmec's Temple Race. In the first season, if they were incorrect, their opponent automatically won. After that, the rule changed so that the other team would have to answer it correctly. The 2021 version keeps the same rules, but subtracts a Temple Game so teams can only win full pendants.

Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_5fcb3c79	comment	Golden Snitch: The 1-1-2 variety but is downplayed in that most teams winning via tiebreaker would find themselves at a disadvantage in the Temple, since most tiebreakers were with the teams each receiving just one pendant, and only having one pendant would render the group helpless against the third Temple Guard. Fortunately, teams that enter with one pendant seem to have more paths open to them, allowing easier access to the artifact.

Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_62259825	type	Nintendo Hard
Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_62259825	comment	Nintendo Hard: Just over one-quarter of Temple Runs were actually completed (pity the poor kids who didn't go to Space Camp or wherever else was on offer). Even though each team was less likely to win a Temple Run with fewer than two Pendants, most of them would actually win with one and a half Pendants... and the highest win ratio was with one Pendant.note Likely this was due to more routes opening up in order to avoid a situation in which running into all three Temple Guards was unavoidable; the side effect being that such teams ultimately had more choices on how to reach the artifact, as opposed to teams with more Pendants who were often locked into a single path. What made it so hard was that there was usually only one linear path, thanks to locked doors. The artifact almost always ended up in the last room you'd enter. You actually had better luck if it was on the far end of the Temple (essentially the halfway point, since after that all the doors unlocked)... and if a Guard got you, your teammate had to start over from the beginning. If it was in the middle of the Temple, like the Heart Room or Observatory, you were dead in the water unless one of the players was a fast runner. Most winning teams picked up the artifact in the seventh or eighth room. This usually included at least one or two which involved quick objectives or simple navigation, but often a lot more in the earlier part of the show. In fact, the first two wins were almost-identical paths (the second time literally just added on the next room) of eight and nine rooms respectively, but other than navigation all the players had to do was sit on a throne and put the monkey together. Kirk Fogg said in an interview that this was deliberate. The sponsors of the grand prizes only gave them so much to work with, so they apparently had a cap on the number of grand prizes they could give out in a season, so the temple was designed accordingly. (According to Great Big Story, the maximum amount of grand prizes was eight in a season) The 2021 Temple Run is four minutes (as opposed to three in the original), but remains true to the trope like its predecessor. While fewer rooms means less railroading that borderlined on fixing like the original game — nearly every room in the temple would need to be navigated — the tasks were more elaborate, with The Queen's Armory being outright called by host Cristela Alonzo "the Dream Killer". As with the original show, the Temple win rate hovers around 25%.

Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_987ff653	type	Promotional Consideration
Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_987ff653	comment	Olmec's Temple (The Temple Run): After the announcer describes the Promotional Considerations and Olmec describes the rooms, the teams get three minutes (or 4 minutes in the 2021 reboot) to try to make it into the temple, grab the artifact, and make it out. The original temple is a two-story twelve-room maze, while the revival features a two-story layout of eight larger rooms; all doors are locked initially, and most rooms have a logic puzzle that must be solved before any doors which can be unlocked will unlock. Grabbing the artifact instantly unlocks all doors and banishes any remaining Temple Guards (and nets the team a second prize); making it out of the temple before time runs out nets you the grand prize (in early seasons, a trip to Space Camp). The 2021 reboot awards $2,500 for the first consolation prize, $10,000 for getting to the artifact, and $25,000 for escaping the temple with the artifact. Temple Guards: Three rooms in the Temple also have Temple Guards; you don't know where they are until the run begins. If you have a whole Pendant of Life, you can bribe the temple guard with it; if not, you are dragged out of the temple, and your partner gets to try to finish with whatever time remains. If the team that goes to the Temple has only one or one-and-a-half Pendant(s), they only have protection against two of the guards, and running into the third will usually end the game. To help them out, the teams with only one Pendant have more choices of paths to avoid the third guard, while the teams with one-and-a-half Pendants can find an extra half so that their second player can bribe the last guard with a full Pendant. The 2021 reboot Temple Games round is set up to always give teams two full pendants, meaning it's impossible for a Temple Guard to end the run.

Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_98b1dc8f	comment	Luck-Based Mission: With all the dead ends, fake switches, rooms guarded by Temple Guards, and limited Pendants of Life (although a stock of two Pendants effectively demoted the guards to Goddamned Bats), the Temple Run easily became this on quite a few occasions. For a few shows in Season 2, there was a Temple Game where the two competing contestants had to guess which of five holes water would squirt from, with no information whatsoever on which to base this decision. This was, however, justified on-screen in at least one instance, as the artifact of that episode allegedly belonged to Nostradamus, making a game that tested "psychic ability" thematically appropriate. In certain layouts, it is possible to avoid a Temple Guard housed in either the Dark Forest (1 in 2 chance) and the Room of the Ancient Warriors (1 in 3 chance), but there's no indication on which tree or suit or armor has the Temple Guard waiting. The Crystal Cenote in the reboot, aka the temple's entrance room, which has three possible doors but only one can unlock. Whatever door to be your starting route depends on the artifact's location.

Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_9b9435d0	type	AntiFrustrationFeature
Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_9b9435d0	comment	Anti-Frustration Feature: Probably in response to its off-the-charts difficulty, the Jester's Court was one out of two rooms to never house a Temple Guard (this was balanced in season 3 when they eliminated the path to the room above). The only other room to not have them is the pit that all contenders must pass through no matter what. Even better, the room with the treasure will not have a temple guard simply because getting the item eliminates them from the equation. Anytime a temple game would end in a draw, both teams would earn that part of the Pendant of life. If a team makes it to the temple with only one pendant due to winning the first two temple games, losing the third, and winning the tiebreaker, or losing the first two, winning the third, and winning the tiebreaker, running into the third temple guard will still end the run, but more doors will open in the temple, which makes reaching the artifact and dodging the third temple guard that much easier. It's also possible to obtain another pendant, as mentioned in Developer's Foresight. Getting lucky and picking the right tree with the key in the Dark Forest, or picking the right armor in the Room of the Ancient Warriors lets you avoid a Temple Guard housed in that room (in the Dark Forest, you have a 50/50 chance, in the Ancient Warriors room, your chance is 1 in 3) in certain Temple layouts. Coming into the Dark Forest from the Jester's Court/Swamp gives teams a few more options and paths than most rooms. Teams could risk getting the key from one of the two trees and then go straight up to the Shrine of the Silver Monkey (faster path, but the Forest is more likely than not to house a Temple Guard in one of the trees) or break through the wall to the Mine Shaft/Quicksand Bog room where you can go up to the room above or use the ladder to go straight to the Shrine of the Silver Monkey (longer path, time sinking objectives, but more choices and those rooms aren't as likely to house Temple Guards). Also, by picking the right tree or going through the longer path, a contender can avoid a Temple Guard housed in the Dark Forest and save a pendant. The 2021 reboot only has two Temple Games, and each is worth a full pendant of life. If there's a tie, the tiebreaker question-and-answer section awards a full pendant, which guarantees a winning team two full pendants/three hit points against the Temple Guards making it impossible for them to end the run in a Triple Seizure. Executive producer Scott Stone explained that this was done to avoid Downer Endings and too many teams missed the half-pendants of life that were hidden in the temple during the Temple Run in the original series. The 2021 Temple Run is now four minutes instead of three to compensate for how big the temple is and how elaborate the puzzles are.

The reboot does a slight variation on this with the formula "The [Demonym] Legend of [Mythological Figure]", as their legends are played straight to actual folklore from around the world.

In the episode "The Fiery Yam Stick of the Seven Sisters," based on Aboriginal Australian legend, the Blue Barracudas went first in the second Temple Game and finished the task in under two and a half minutes. The Green Monkeys had to beat their time. Ryleigh imitated a demonic sound which Billy had to match to the correct skull, then he had to climb up a mountain and throw the skull down to his teammate. Sounds simple, right? Well, Billy had all sorts of trouble climbing back up the mountain! Eventually, he just took off his shoes, climbed up using his socks, and threw the skull down to his partner, but by that time, there was no way the Green Monkeys could beat the Blue Barracudas’ time.

Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_b89ed08a	comment	Obvious Rule Patch: In the first season, teams could access the Temple directly through the Cave of Sighs as opposed to taking the stairs to the top right room. Many contestants chose the former option so when the Cave of Sighs became the Ledges for Season 2, its entrance was blocked off. When Medusa's Lair was first introduced, players had to put four snakes into her head to open the door(s). After one contestant spent nearly a minute completing the objective, this was reduced to only two snakes being needed. In the first season, a team answering a tiebreaker question incorrectly automatically sent their opponents to the temple (fellow Stone Stanley game show Shop 'Til You Drop also used this exact same tiebreaker format). This was changed in the later seasons by requiring the team that didn't ring in to answer the question correctly in order to win.

Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_d1b98800	comment	The Temple Games: A series of three competitive physical contests, usually themed around the legend, which will net the team who wins a "Pendant of Life". The first two games are worth a half-pendant each and involve one player from each team, while the last game is worth a full pendant of life and involves both players from each team (and usually determines which team wins). If the teams tie in a game, they both receive that game's pendant. If there is a tie, Olmec will ask a general trivia tiebreaking question (in the first season, getting the question wrong meant losing the quest immediately). The 2021 reboot cuts this down to two Temple Games (one a head-to-head challenge, the other a time trial challenge) that both players participate in, each being worth a full pendant of life with the Sudden Death round also being worth one full pendant.

Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_e4e86215	comment	Fake Difficulty: A rare non-video game example. The Jester's Court would be too hard to complete if you were too short, which several of the kids were. The Temple Guards made the game practically unwinnable for any team that didn't have two full pendants from the earlier rounds. Depending on their placement, they could make the game unwinnable even if the team does have two full pendants. "The Discarded Seal of Ivan the Terrible" is only the most egregious example of this. Years later, Kirk Fogg revealed that the show actually only had the budget to give away a small fraction of the prizes offered, so this kind of thing was pushed as far as humanly possible up to the point where they could still not be accused of deliberately cheating. He also revealed that the Silver Monkey idol itself was rather shoddily made, and often time even if the kid had everything right it wouldn't do the click into place that would signal a win. Oftentimes, combined with the poor lighting, this would make the kids get into their own heads and panic away the rest of their time.

The "One Second Left" Temple Runs (Galileo's Cannonball, Lawrence of Arabia's Headdress, Applewood Amulet of Emiliano Zapata and Milk Bucket of Freydis) where the teams work to the very last second to win. Milk Bucket of Freydis gets bonus points as it is the only One Second Solo Run ever accomplished.

Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_e6b5d22f	comment	Catchphrase: After Olmec gives the contestants the rundown of the temple layout: "The choices are yours, and yours alone!" When Olmec tells the contestants what awaits them if they successfully complete the Temple Run: "Return through the gates with the (artifact) in three/four minutes, and you will both be handsomely rewarded! And here's how!" "The SHR-III-INE of the SEEELVURR MUN-KEE!!!", always enunciated as such. Kirk after asking the players if they were ready: "Olmec, are you ready?" "Let's rock!"

Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_edc5ac07	comment	Excited Kids' Show Host: Using Mike O'Malley as a reference, Kirk Fogg is the zany but kind-sounding (if occasionally condescending) variety.

Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_f6f6adeb	comment	Railroading: Olmec may claim that the contestants have a choice of which path to take through the Temple, but to prevent the runs from being too easy, some of the doors are locked, limiting them to one linear path.

Legends of the Hidden Temple / int_f870d50	comment	Consolation Prize: Every contestant was given one. Most notably, the team who made it to the Temple got one just for getting inside. With the exception of the Silver Snakesnote Their team's shirts were specially made to appear better on camera. The contestants would be given less flashy duplicates after competing, all contestants got to keep the shirts they wore. The 2021 version also had branded swag like backpacks and water bottles for those who failed Rounds 2 and 3.
