About the game

What is Trial of the Temples?

Every century the most powerful Archmages gather at the centre of the world — “Mages' Arena”. They must enter the trials at the three temples to compete for the title of “Supreme Master”. Each Archmage will refine crystals and create magical barriers to block their opponents in order to complete the trials and find the best timing to surpass their opponents. Archmages will aim to cast a spell from the spellbook to create an amazing spell chain! Who will win and receive the ultimate title? The game is played over 5 days (rounds) at most. At the end of the game, whoever has the highest Trial Points (VP) will be the winner. —description from the publisher
