Can you work out what game I am? (My original puzzle):
Head hung low in… (5) - Best card of the deck (3)
Written much by peer and shakes, often read for the love it makes (6) - Certainly not pretty after a car crash (6)
Elegant flower and popular where there is red light (5) - Ferocious beast ...
Inspired by my last riddle: Three Tongues of Rock
One is round
He sings of dark art
One with lips
He gently caresses
The third he sings
Of men who wear dresses
This one should be pretty easy. Enjoy.
Okay, that gives me an idea... but not sufficient to get it. Specifically, I think we were talking about the wrong genre earlier and another song from the king is meant... but I don't see how the wordplay works.
Well... there are Dutch castles called ter Such-and-such. Apparently it just means "the". But if we allow "the Castle" as a clue for TER — which seems wrong to me — then we've "the King" = R in {TER about endless HILL(s)} = "Thriller", a song.
The construction is fair, but a bit piecemeal. I thought about the TH(R)E and also of R as rook, but I should have investigated songs of the King of Pop. Never mind.

A number is missing. Find "?".
((13 19 4□)⁽⁷ ⁴ ⁻¹⁾□) + ((14 6 4□ 3□ 5)⁽⁶ ² ² ⁻⁴ ⁾□) + (4□ 13 12 12 23 7)⁽⁴ ¹⁰ ⁻⁷ ⁻¹ ⁻²⁾ =
?□
