Can you tell the difference between the truth and a lie?

The Feast

Food for the body, art for the soul.

The Task

Prove your skills in deception.

The Master Forger

A criminal mastermind looking for his next protégé.

Sometimes the crime is hidden in plain sight. 

In the criminal underworld, the Master Forger is a legend. Tonight, you’re invited to partake in a culinary feast, while unravelling his greatest deception yet. If you successfully pass his test, you’ll be invited to join his inner circle. He’s looking for the brightest minds, the sharpest wit, the keenest senses… do you have what it takes to become a Master Forger?

The Forger’s Feast is an immersive puzzle game woven into a fine dining experience. Over the course of the evening, your table must work together to separate the truth from the lie. Everything in the room, from the décor, the menu, and even the food, may be part of the puzzle.

Criminal masterminds don’t skimp on hospitality. Apollo’s has designed a three-course fine dining spread intended to be as much of a conversation piece as the puzzles themselves. It’s an indulgent, meticulously crafted menu designed to delight your palate and distract your focus while you work.

(We gladly accommodate dietary requirements with advance notice—even the underworld has manners.)

Think tweed, leather-bound notebooks, ink-stained cuffs, and secrets told over scotch. We encourage a Dark Academia aesthetic—scholarly, vintage, and just a little dangerous. While costumes are entirely optional, smart casual is the baseline. Come dressed like you have something to hide, or something to prove.

No actors, no interrogations. This is a pure logic and deduction game. Nobody is going to drop dead over dessert, and you aren’t watching a theatrical performance. You are the investigators.

No art degree required. You don’t need to know Monet from Manet. The puzzles rely entirely on your ability to spot patterns, crack codes, and think critically. Everything you need to solve the room is right in front of you.

Tech meets tactile. You will be handling physical clues, examining real canvases on the walls, and navigating a digital terminal to find the truth. Bring your reading glasses if you need them; the devil is in the details.
