About this expansion

Castles of Mad King Ludwig: Secrets is an expansion for Castles of Mad King Ludwig for 1–4 players, with a play time of 90 minutes. Released in 2015, it adds thirty new rooms and several new features to help you build even more amazing, crazy castles.

Hidden throughout the new rooms are dozens of swans, which are especially treasured by King Ludwig. These swans can provide much-needed cash at any time, or they can be collected to earn big bonuses at the end of the game.

New moats surround and protect your castle, making every room inside it even more valuable. The King has also introduced additional favors, including one focused on creating courtyards.

  • Thirty new rooms to add to your castle
  • Hidden swans that offer cash or end-game bonuses
  • Moats that surround and protect the castle
  • New favors, including a courtyard-related favor
  • Secret passages that enhance connections and muffle sound from activity rooms

Secret passages add another distinctive feature to the expansion. They enhance connections within the castle while muffling sound from activity rooms, giving these new additions a clear role in your castle’s design.

With its swans, moats, favors, and passages, Castles of Mad King Ludwig: Secrets expands the possibilities of the original game without leaving behind its delightfully unusual castle-building theme. Add it to Castles of Mad King Ludwig for more rooms, more secrets, and even more ways to create a remarkable royal residence.
