Gameplay

Based on the popular Channel 4 game show, The Crystal Maze Team Challenge from Barcrest tasks players with navigating a series of skill-based mini-games to accumulate crystals. As the lone player, your success in these challenges determines how much time you earn within the central Crystal Dome. There, you’ll need to strategically collect gold tokens to maximize your reward. The game combines elements of multiplay and gambling mechanics; players strive to master each individual challenge while also managing their overall progress toward a payout. The difficulty dynamically adjusts, influencing the complexity of the mini-games presented. Ultimately, reaching the end game allows for a final opportunity to gather enough gold tokens within the Crystal Dome for a winning outcome. Released in the UK in 1994, The Crystal Maze Team Challenge utilizes Barcrest's MPU4 system and features sound chips from General Instrument and SAA1099.
