Knights of the Order defending the wall at Birgu during the Great Siege of 1565
History · Malta, 1565

Can you win the Great Siege?

Jean Parisot de Valette dies in January 1565 and the Order elects you in his place. Everything after that is yours: what St Elmo is told to do, what the letter to Sicily says, where the men stand on 7 August. The siege is scored the way his was, and at the end you are placed against him.

Spunt's history games turn topics students encounter in class into interactive experiences. Students meet historical figures, explore real places and events, and make decisions based on the challenges people faced at the time.

The aim is not simply to memorise what happened, but to understand why it happened. By exploring cause and effect, competing choices and historical evidence, students develop a deeper understanding of the history they are studying.
