Continuing with our spotlights on pop culture references in Battle for Azeroth, today we're looking at the Legends of the Hidden Temple in Nazmir!
Legends of the Hidden Temple
was a TV action show that was broadcasted from 1993 to 1995 on Nickelodeon. This TV show was the most popular of the live-action competitions Nickelodeon held at the time, so much that the now defunct channel Nick GaS aired re-runs of the series from 1999 till the channel's shutdown in 2007. Occasionally, you can still watch re-runs of the show during TeenNick's block The Splat.
In-game, you're able to find pieces of the infamous
Shrine of the Silver Monkey
scattered around 3 treasure chests in
Nazmir
. Fitting, as Nazmir's mayan aesthetics fit the series pretty well.
The
Silberner Affenkopf
is located inside
Wunjas Schatz
, at
35 55
inside a cave.
Olmec was the giant talking statue found at the base of the temple, and would guide the teams through the challenges in each episode.
The
Silberner Affenkörper
is located inside the
"Genial" getarnte Truhe
, at
35 85
.
The
Silberner Statuensockel
is located inside the
Giftsiegeltruhe
, at
46 82
.
This item's flavor text references two purple parrots. This is yet another reference to Legends of the Hidden Temple, as one of the teams competing was called the Purple Parrots.
In Legends of the Hidden Temple, 6 duos of 1 boy and 1 girl competed for grand prizes, and the team that outlasted all challenges had to go through the Temple Run, a massive labyrinth with many challenges that they had to go through. The most infamous challenge was the
Shrine of the Silver Monkey
room, where the kid inside the temple had to retrieve 3 pieces of a silver monkey statue scattered around the room, and correctly assemble the statue to open the doors to the next room.
However, due to stress (as you had to gather an artifact and leave the labyrinth within a 3-minute timer), the kids doing the Temple Run very often struggled with the many challenges, and the Silver Monkey Statue was no exception, as players crumbled to the pressure while attempting to correctly assemble the shrine.
As the items composing the Silver Monkey Statue are of gray quality and you can't do anything with them, but vendor them (or cherish them, disassembled, in your bank forever), it looks like assembling this statue is also out of the WoW character's scope.
WoW counts with another small reference to Legends of the Hidden Temple, with the quest
Legenden des Versunkenen Tempels
, an obvious reference to the TV show's title.
