List of Challenges in Takeshi's Castle - U

U

• Uphill Garden: Contestants would go One-On-One against a guard in a short-ranged water gun fight first to have the other's paper ring penetrated tipically wins (And if the contestant does that first they move on). Guards were normally dressed in stupid costumes like a bomb, a biker (Called 'Evel Knievel' or 'Robocop' in the UK version), or three guards dressed as a snake named in the UK version as the evil triplets "Who", "What" and "Why". Needless to say, there was no "When" in the game. The theme from Thunderbirds was also used as background music in this game.

• Up The Creek: The player enters a box suspended on a rail over some thick mud. In the mud is a platform the contestant must get to. The player pulls a rope and the box moves across the rail. When they think they're over the platform, they pull a lever and the bottom of the box opens, dropping the contestant. If they weren't over the platform, they'd land in the thick mud and be eliminated. Renamed as The Crate Escape on MXC.
