Moat CrossingThe moat crossing required players to hang from a rope overhead and walking across two lower ropes which crisscross at the halfway mark.
Steps of KnowledgeOne of the most famous woodcutters of Old Persia was Ali Baba. Legend has it that one day, he was out cutting wood in the forest when he saw forty horsemen ride up to a cliff. "Open Sesame!", said their leader, and a cliff base slid aside revealing a cave. The horsemen rode in, and the cave door closed behind them. Ali Baba crept down to the cave and waited until they left. "Open Sesame!", he shouted, and stepped inside. Golden treasure was piled everywhere. "These guys are thieves. I'm out of here!" And he took a little golden stallion with him. Back home, he told his brother, Bobby Baba the story. Bobby went to the cave with five mules and loaded up, but he was so excited he forgot the password. "Open Peanut?", he cried. "Open Sunflower? Open Canola?" Nothing worked. When the 40 thieves returned, they did him in. The golden stallion stayed in Ali Baba's family for generations.
Temple GamesThe Silver Snakes are Jonathan and Shannon. The Orange Iguanas are Kendra and C.J.. Forty Thieves' Gold (Trapeze Grid)[]In the legend of Ali Baba, the thieves hid their gold in caves. In front of each player, there are nine caves. When Kirk gave the signal, one player from each team had to place a piece of gold between their feet, swing out, and drop the gold into one of the nine caves. Then, they will go back, grab another piece of gold and try again. The player to fill the most caves in 60 seconds won. Kendra and Jonathan tied with filling two caves awarding them both a half pendant of life. Memory (Plugging Holes)[]Alī Bābā's brother, Bobby Baba could not remember the password and he was trapped inside the cave. Olmec hoped the players' memory serves them a little better. Beside each player is the fountain of Ali Baba with nine holes from which water may spring at any time. In a moment, the water sprayed from the holes in a secret sequence (9, 2, 8, 5, 7, 6, 3, 1, 4). When Kirk gave the signal, each player had to place a marker in the first hole of that sequence. If they are right, nothing will happen. Otherwise, they will be squirted with Persian Water. Then, they will remove their stoppers and try again. The players with most correct guesses won. C.J. won the game and the half pendant of life after scoring seven points while Shannon score four points.Hidden Gold (Cubbyhole Web)[]Ali Baba found the secret hiding place of the Forty Thieves' gold. Beside each team stands a cave with several covered holes and a giant spider web in the center. Each of the holes contains a bag of gold. When Kirk gave the signal, the first player on each team had to scramble up the web to the opening, smash through the cover, grab the gold, and come back down to place it in the team bin. Then their partner will repeat the process. The higher the hole, the heavier the bag of gold inside. The team with the heaviest loot in 60 seconds won. The Orange Iguanas had the most gold, beating out the Silver Snakes, awarding them a full pendant of life, and sending them to Olmec's Temple in search of the golden stallion.
Temple RunC.J. went into the temple first, moving at a fast pace. Starting off by heading down into The Ledges, and swiftly crawling through the cavern, C.J. proceeds to unlock the door lower crawl tube to enter The Pit of Despair. Deciding to stick to the lower level, C.J. walks across the pit and opens up the door to The Throne Room. Upon sitting on the throne, the first temple guard jumps out and captures C.J. (doing so before the door did a full rotation). After surrendering his pendant of life, C.J. decides to head up into The Heart Room. But C.J. ran into bad luck, as he was captured by the second temple guard, just as he was trying to open the door to The King's Storeroom. Thus, ending his journey within the temple with 2:16 left on the clock
