He's been entombed in the historic sanctuary for a reasonas the guest of an unknown host, chosen for a night of fun and games. He's unprepared. He's afraid.

Each strapped with an explosive set to detonate should they escape before the night is over.

Against insurmountable odds the contest has begun. Should he win, the greatest, most unfathomable terror lies at the night's end: the very reason behind the game…
