THE MOROCCAN CASTLE is a free adventure game for PC by an independent developer AJB GAMES STUDIO. It is a survival horror game that has players try to escape from a castle they are trapped in. They also need to find their way out before time runs out.

THE MOROCCAN CASTLE has a similar concept to other games like Escape the Ayuwoki or SCP - Containment Breach wherein the main objective is to escape while trying to get past obstacles and survive random encounters as players make their way out of the situation they're placed in.

What is it about?

As its name suggests, THE MOROCCAN CASTLE is set inside a Moroccan castle, and that is actually one of its highlight features. The castle you’ll find yourself in is based on real-life Moroccan architecture, more specifically, those that were built in Tétouan, a city along the Martil Valley in the northern part of Morocco. This extends to interior design, too, with detailed and realistic graphics and lighting effects used.

You play as an art collector that travels to an old Moroccan castle in Tétouan. Due to unknown circumstances, though, you find yourself trapped inside the castle. The only way out of your predicament would be to find the keys that are spread throughout the structure. Armed with only your wits and a lamp to light the way, you go about solving puzzles and obstacles as you search for them.

Some of the puzzles you encounter will be physics-based and can cause you harm, so be careful. Also, there’s a mysterious time limit where you need to escape before 4:00 AM or you will die. There is a slight learning curve to this game that might make it a little hard to get into for some new players given its lack of proper instructions or guides in the beginning.

Nice-looking physics-based survival horror

In summary, if you're looking for a new survival horror game to play, give THE MOROCCAN CASTLE a go. Its game design that was inspired by Moroccan architecture is quite a sight to see and experience. Its physics-based puzzle-solving gameplay is quite fun and challenging, too. It might seem confusing at first, but it's well worth learning.
