I have always loved castles. The feeling of being enclosed in the stone walls of a vast medieval keep is without compare. The amplified, echoing sounds of footsteps, the howling of the wind through the open spaces, the comforting weight of the entire edifice conspire to produce in me something rare: a feeling of true peace.
I found all this and more in Kasteel Verloren, created by Versu Richlieu. I won't give away too much in the photos, as it's much more fun to explore on your own. Great Build, Versu!

Some of the fun: a bell that really works

1. I ordinarily dislike buildings, both in-world and out, that rely too heavily on historic representation. However, it would seem from your pictures that the Kasteel Verloren has a wonderful level of depth, and that it really does feel like a castle, rather than simply a pastiche of one. I shall definitely plan a visit.
