Forbidden Island Download on the App Store

You Touch Down On An Ancient Mystical Island...

Legend has it that the Archean empire possessed the ability to control the Earth's elements — fire, wind, water, and earth — through four sacred treasures. Because of their potential to cause catastrophic damage, the Acheans kept the treasures hidden on Forbidden Island and designed it to sink if intruders ever attempted to claim them. In the centuries since the mysterious collapse of their empire, Forbidden Island remained undiscovered...until now.

Adventure Awaits

Forbidden Island is a cooperative game of strategy and courage as you and up to three other adventurers attempt to capture the four ancient treasures hidden on a sinking island. It's a thrilling adventure based on the best-selling Gamewright board game.

Lead an expedition on your own (controlling multiple Adventurers) or set out with friends, side-by-side or around a table.

Get To the Chopper!

With each turn the island sinks deeper into the ocean. Use your creativity, plot your strategy, and move quickly to stay above the waves.

Do you have what it takes to breach the Forbidden Island's borders, capture the treasures, and make it out alive?
