A game mentioned twice by
Folly the jester. The most literal version involved chasing
Gretel through the
dungeon. She didn't want to play, calling it "a stupid game", but Folly was persistent and invited
Team 1 of Series 2 to join in. Following Gretel allowed them to identify the safest exit from the 4-door starting chamber.
Team 4 of Series 2 met Folly in the '
Pick A Card' room, where each exit was blocked by a different face card. He named the game as Chase The Lady, which the
team understood as a hint to select the Queen of Hearts.
The traditional card game Chase The Lady is better known as Hearts, familiar to millions as one of the
free games included with Microsoft Windows. The lady of the title is the Queen of Spades.
Other card games mentioned in
Knightmare include Black Jack (a variant of Crazy Eights, on which
Play Your Cards Right was based) and Snap.
