More about Forbidden Castle

In the late 1800s, four priceless gemstones were stolen from Malta’s National Museum. The prime suspect? Matteo Degabriele, a notorious figure whose dark legacy haunts the island. His abandoned castle, looming in eerie silence, has been the site of many failed expeditions—none of which have returned. Legend says Degabriele’s restless soul still watches over the castle, guarding its secrets. And those who dare enter are trapped unless they can retrieve the stolen gems.

Now, it’s your turn.

Your team has 60 minutes to enter The Forbidden Castle, recover the four missing gemstones, and escape before Degabriele’s spirit seals your fate. Every room holds deadly traps and cryptic puzzles, designed to ensure no one leaves with the gems. The clock is ticking, and you can feel his presence growing stronger with every passing second. Fail, and you may join the ranks of those lost forever. Can you outwit the ghostly guardian, recover the treasures, and make it out alive? The castle holds its breath—waiting to see if you’ll succeed, or become its next victims.

Time is running out…

The total score of a review doesn't have to be the average of your subscores. Sometimes a room feels like it should deserve a higher (or lower) rating than the exact sum of its parts.

Amazing room and experience

Als je in Malta bent en het een keer regent, dit is je activiteit.
Gelijk als je binnenstapt zie je de grootte van de kamer, en dat is imposant.
Er zitten wat mooie mechanieken en grapjes in die we uit Nederland niet kennen, dat is een hele leuke verrassing. Riccardo vertelde ons van de voren dat we met de standaarden in Nederland wel onze verwachtingen wat moeten temperen, maar dat blijkt totaal niet het geval.
Een mooie kamer waar alles goed in elkaar zit, logisch is, stevig aanvoelt en werkt.
De immersive aankleding kan aan het plafond nog wel wat hebben, een kamer is voor ons wat out of place en karig aangekleed, maar dat mag je pret niet drukken.
Echt een aanrader!!
