Why it's different

A game you never stop playing.

You live it

From Friday evening to Sunday afternoon, you eat, sleep and play under one roof. A chat over breakfast can be the clue that cracks the game.

Out isn't over

Eliminated? You join the Eclipsed, who keep playing with secret missions and challenges to be crowned Eclipsed Champion.

A proper weekend away

Two nights at Lanwades Hall, a country house 30 minutes from Cambridge, with every meal included.

Come as you are

On your own, as a pair or with friends. Everyone arrives as a Novice, and nobody knows who to trust.

The Sanctuary

Lanwades Hall, near Newmarket: your Sanctuary for the weekend.

How a weekend unfolds

From first secret to final reveal.

  1. The Confessional

    On arrival, a private one-to-one with the High Priest. Tell him how badly you want to be a Heretic, or steer well clear.

  2. The Trials

    Team challenges that win tokens to add weight to your vote. Every token spent grows the Offering and helps the Loyalists, so a Heretic may want a Trial to fail.

  3. Excommunication

    Cloaks on. The group debates, then votes someone out. In between, the Heretics strike in secret.

  4. The Eclipse Ritual

    Sunday's finale. Candles, a last vote and the reveal: did the Order survive, or did the Heretics win?
