Labyrinth - Moving Maze Family Board Game for Kids and Adults Age 7 and Up - 2 to 4 Players for Boys and Girls

I am not usually big on board games, I enjoyed Monopoly Empire as it is really easy to pick up and play and taking over your opponents brands trying to win is quite satisfying. I am always on the look out for decent board games especially for the darker nights / Christmas time. I came across Labyrinth, was on sale at half price and already had good reviews so I went ahead and ordered it. Delivery came pretty quick ( Prime member), opened the box and checked all the parts / cards were there. I was pleased to see a single sheet of A4 rules! On reading it seemed quite straight forward, my teenage daughters and I played and found it very entertaining, the fact that the board - as a maze - can change on each turn by putting in the extra maze piece in the marked areas and pushing the whole row of maze pieces along really does add a good dimension compared to regular board games - you can greatly help yourself or hinder others when trying to get your treasures. There are no dice - just prepare the board with the maze pieces - deal out the treasure cards ( don't show others these cards unless having a practice; ) - you have to then move the maze on your turn - then either choose to move ( or not move ) your character piece as far as you like as long as there is a clear path - or until you reach your treasure piece....on doing this you then turn over your next treasure card and wait your turn to again move the maze and then your playing piece as required. There is strategy to a point, and moving your piece off the board one side and as in the rules place it the opposite side before moving means you can get to the other side of the board then make your move. Some luck can come your way as well as not - as its funny when you think you are nearly at your treasure and then the player before you then moves the maze and the game changes completely! This is well worth a go - I think we'll certainly be breaking this game out more than others we have ( apart from "grab a pig" or stinky pig which are great, quick easy games for a good giggle!!). I hope I have given a fair idea of how this game plays...and if you can get it for the £12 I paid then why not give it a go...the board / cards and pieces are decent enough quality - i would highly recommend...

Quality of the product is good. Should play for at least 20 minutes per game, probably will take longer if you have a 3 or 4 player game. Content: Game board has some fixed tiles to act as a guideline for the labyrinth. The labyrinth tiles are nice and thick so are sturdy and have a decent finish. Artwork is ok, nothing fabulous but looks good enough. Playing cards (treasure cards) are not the best I've ever seen but are functional and are clear. Character pieces are each unique (suspiciously look like famous wizards) and are coloured differently, red, blue, yellow and green. Insert tray holds all contents nicely. All the rules are on a double-sided coloured page, includes a basic variant rule for youngsters too. Overview: Look at your treasure card and try to retrieve the treasure on it, but beware the labyrinth will change to slow your search, can you collect all your treasure first? The game plays, quite simply, in 2 rounds per player turn. 1, Play the loose labyrinth tile and collect the displaced tile. 2, Move your character to a treasure or around the labyrinth. These rules are easy to teach and learn, but the game itself does encourage prior planning and basic tactics. I'd say that it's not suitable for very young children but those around 7/8 (perhaps a year or two younger) onwards will likely enjoy the game itself. The only drawback I've found is that you can get stuck trying to get a treasure, this is more likely to happen with higher player counts, but otherwise it's quite straightforward and is enjoyable. Final thoughts: Overall I'd say this is a very good family friendly boardgame. The moving board is interesting, especially for young players, but as mentioned before can be a little frustrating. Happy to have it in my collection and hope to use ot for years to come.

We love this game! We were introduced to it by some friends, and ordered a set ourselves. The gameplay is super fun and easy to learn for almost any age (our 4 1/2 year old loves it). The only downside is that you can really only play with 4 people at a time. There is a teams version, but we went with the standard. The game is well made, but I would prefer if the player pieces were not cheap plastic. Overall, a great game for family and friend game nights!

My daughter bought thus game and it is my wife's favorite.

Fantastic board game for kids that never grows old. My 7 year old and 9 year old both pull it out to play repeatedly.

We have enjoyed lots of game time with our children. Suitable for Kids of all ages up to adults. Sometimes you get lucky sometimes you don’t but it’s a great thinking game.
