Dare to discover Forbidden Island! Join a team of fearless adventurers on a do-or-die mission to capture four sacred treasures from the ruins of this perilous paradise. Work together to retrieve the loot and escape by helicopter before the island sinks beneath the waves — and takes you with it!

This cooperative modern classic from designer Matt Leacock challenges 2–4 players to combine their special abilities, shore up flooding tiles and race against the rising tide. The island is built fresh from 24 beautifully illustrated tiles each game, so no two expeditions ever play out the same way. With adjustable difficulty, it's easy to learn yet endlessly re-playable.

A superb gateway into cooperative gaming, Forbidden Island plays in around 30 minutes and is perfect for families, newcomers and seasoned gamers alike — it even plays brilliantly solo.

Frequently asked questions
Can I play Forbidden Island solo?
Yes — the cooperative design works perfectly for one player controlling multiple adventurers, making it a great solo experience.
How long does a game take?
A typical game lasts around 30 minutes, so it's ideal for a quick challenge.
Is it suitable for families?
Absolutely. It's recommended for ages 10 and up and is an excellent introduction to cooperative gaming with adjustable difficulty.
How is it different from Forbidden Desert?
Forbidden Desert is a standalone follow-up with new mechanics and a tougher challenge. Forbidden Island is the lighter, easier entry point — you don't need one to play the other.
