Make your way to the Gamer's Grotto, North of Falador and East of the Falador Lodestone. Enter the Grotto, then head to the North-Easternmost corner.
Now step through the barrier, and the minigame will start when at least 6 players have joined the waiting area. Once the game has begun you will be in the dungeon's safe zone and the minigame will begin.
Note: Players cannot bring/wear any items or have a follower out.
The point of this minigame is to survive a dungeon for 10 rounds. Each round will last for 60 seconds, and you will have to get to one end of the dungeon to the other end of the dungeon (safe zone) while surviving the hazards. After all the players have made it to the safe zone a 10 second countdown will begin, and when it hits 0 the dungeon will rework itself into a new route and the safe zone will be on the other side of the dungeon. Players who do not make it to the safe zone will be turned into a gorilla guard, where they will get to attack other players. If all players have been turned into gorillas, the game is over.
Each time a player makes it to a new round they will receive 1 trophy.
If a player fails to make it to the safe zone in time, they will be turned into a gorilla guard. While you are a gorilla you may try and take out the other players in the game, for each player you take out you will receive 2 trophies.
The above method is not the only method to gain trophies. Players are able to gather extra trophies by mining cabbage ore veins, harvesting cabbage leaf patches, Wishing-cabbage Bush or killing monkey minions.

The dungeon has several hazards inside of them that are designed to make dungeons more difficult for players to complete, by slowing them down or even blocking paths.
Image | Hazard |
Walls are spiked wooden barriers that block your path. There is no way through them. | |
Walls of fire are a hazard that will attempt to block your path by covering it with a wall of fire. You can wait until it goes back down, or you are able to go through them, but you will take damage. Having the proper skill activated can reduce the damage you take. | |
The cabbage cauldron, will fire cabbages at you if you get to close to it. If you are hit by a cabbage, you will be damaged. | |
Gorilla guards are a level 198 npc and are tough. They are able to sprint after you, but only for a short period of time. If you manage to kill a gorilla guard it will drop 4 trophies. |
