You have been charged with throwing this year’s festival to appease the gods and prevent the need for HUMAN SACRIFICES. To do this, you must create a spectacle of rituals, performances and offerings made from the ‘gift of the gods’ - Cacao. But Ek Chuah, the Mayan god of WAR and CHOCOLATE, is angry… He demands sacrifice, or there will be consequences! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDay by day, it’s up to the teams to work against the clock to set up their festival, but also gain the favour of Ek Chuah. Pay the correct tribute to this vengeful god of chocolate, and he will bless you with great gifts to aid you in your quest. Fail to satisfy him, and your team will pay a penalty!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach group will compete for resources to create the most spectacular festival. They’ll have to build camp in the amazon rainforest, whittle their own cacao beans crushing tools, roast and grind the beans to make chocolate, perform a traditional Mayan fire ceremony, create terrifying Maya masks and compete to concoct the most scrumptious cacao treats, such as rich chocolate truffles and spiced hot cacahuatl. All the while satisfying the whims of the wrathful Ek Chuah by completing the tasks he has set. Will your offerings be enough to satisfy the wrath of the god? \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ffffff;\"\u003e A FAST-MOVING IMMERSIVE GAME TO DIVE INTO THE WORLD OF COCOA AND BRING TOGETHER BUSHCRAFT SKILLS, EXCITING PHYSICAL CHALLENGES \u0026amp; CREATIVE PROBLEM-SOLVING IN THE AMAZING RAINFOREST.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDaily Itinerary\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0017\/4951\/6352\/files\/Daily_Itinerary_-_Death_By_Chocolate_5_days.pdf?v=1679586540\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0017\/4951\/6352\/files\/Daily_Itinerary_-_Death_By_Chocolate_5_days_6ba4bdb1-b5ce-4d29-bfaf-202656d9fda1.png?v=1623417212\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem data-start=\"67\" data-end=\"398\" data-is-last-node=\"\"\u003ePlease note that our daily itinerary is a guide, and some activities may need to be changed or rescheduled when circumstances occasionally make it difficult for us to run them, including poor weather.
