'''Casbah''' was an official [[Capture the Flag]] map, featuring an industrial layout surrounded by [[water|ocean]], with wide open areas and fighting concentrated on defined chokepoints.


Casbah was initially added on May 3, 2015 on [[1.9.0]] patch as a testing map by Macd11 & Zorbos, until it was replaced by {{Dev|Tamari}}'s version at an unknown date. It is the only Capture the Flag map with an asymmetrical design and a fixed 20-minute round timer. It was initially designed to use a unique CTF variant utilizing setup times, setup gates, a round timer of 15 minutes, and have the amount of time on the clock increase by 8 minutes whenever the intelligence was captured. Whichever team had more points at the end of the match would win, rather than the match stalemating. However, this idea was scrapped when the map was added to TF2C for unknown reasons, resulting in the maps removal from the game during the Steam release of TF2C due to its low ratings.

On the now-deleted announcement of then-<i>TF2 Classic</i>'s inclusion at "Steam Next Fest: October 2025", {{dev|Nito}} stated that Casbah will "not be returning in its current form" and would be removed from the game during the [[3.0.0|Steam release (3.0.0)]].
