Tibia-01

Tibia is an old school MMO that has existed for 20 years. A mysterious door has existed since 2005 that can only be opened at level 999. 12 years later, the door is open and the secret is revealed.

Tibia, an old school MMORPG by the German developer CipSoft, has been around since 1997 and still has a small but loyal player base. The biggest secret of the game is a door that apparently can only be opened at level 999. The aforementioned door has been in the game since 2005. After 12 years, its secret has finally been revealed.

Tibia – “I will open the door, but only if you pay for my vacation!”

The mysterious door was already opened in August 2016. The responsible player Kharsek remained silent about his experiences behind the door and revealed it to no one. However, there have been successors now.

The Polish player and streamer Dev onica reached level 999 and offered to pass through the portal and stream the area behind it. But only if you donate 500 US dollars for his next vacation!

In doing so, the player made no friends. While someone donated a dollar, the requested amount did not come together.

In the end, however, Dev onica opened the portal and showed his viewers what lies behind it: a teleporter to a tropical island, where you could buy a few nice but not outstanding items. Among them a golden cup with the inscription “Congratulations on reaching level 999.”

Tibia – The mysterious door was actually just a gag by the developers

For many players, the secret behind the door was a huge disappointment, and many wish they had never learned it. The developers, on the other hand, thought of the door back in 2005 as a nice joke, as they never expected someone would ever reach that level.

After all, you lose permanent experience points in Tibia when you die, and you are reset by hours or even days in progress. And that the game is still actively played in 2017 is something the developers probably never dreamed of.


What do you think? Should the door have remained closed? Or is it good that we now know and are not working towards something that does not yield much? Let us know in the comments!
