The primary risks in Temple of Spikes are related to its hardcore difficulty, which could lead to frustration. The competitive aspect of the speedrunner mode or hot-seat multiplayer might introduce some competitive toxicity. The content includes a moderate level of violence and some elements of fear/horror due to bloodthirsty beasts and deadly traps.
