Each team was identified with a colour and an animal indicated on their uniform shirts: the Red Jaguars, Blue Barracudas, Green Monkeys, Orange Iguanas, Purple Parrots, and Silver Snakes. In each episode, six teams of two contestants began a three-round competition to determine which team earned the right to enter the temple. In addition to providing an artifact, the legend also was important to other aspects of the show: the Steps of Knowledge used questions based on the historical legend, and the theme of the temple games was also loosely based on the legend. Olmec also serves as the basis for the logo. Each episode centred on a particular legend regarding an artifact (real or fictional) from around the world that found its way to the temple. Olmec narrated the stories told in the steps of knowledge and temple game challenges (although in the first season, Fogg narrated the temple game challenges).
At the temple's gate was a talking Olmec head simply named Olmec. It included areas for different types of physical challenges: a broad but shallow pool of water (the moat), a set of steps (the Steps of Knowledge), and a large, two-and-a-half-floor vertical labyrinth (the "hidden temple").
The set design of Legends of the Hidden Temple was based on the Indiana Jones movies, and has been described as a Mayan.
