Designed for ages 12+, it challenges players with deep tactical decisions and a unique political narrative.

## Description

From the Manufacturer Labyrinth takes 1 or 2 players inside the Islamist jihad and the global war on terror. With broad scope, ease of play, and a never-ending variety of event combinations similar to GMT's highly popular Twilight Struggle, Labyrinth portrays not only the US efforts to counter extremists' use of terrorist tactics but the wider ideological struggle-guerrilla warfare, regime change, democratization, and much more. Labyrinth features distinct operational options for each side that capture the asymmetrical nature of the conflict, while the event cards that drive its action pose a maze of political, religious, military, and economic issues. For 1-2 Players ages 12+. 180 Minutes Playtime. Contents: 1 Counter sheet , 1 22'' x 34''Mounted Map board , 110 Playing Cards, Rules Booklet, 2 Player Aid Sheets, 1 Solitaire Play Sheet, 30 Wooden Cubes, 4 Six-sided Dice.

Review: Excellent two player, decent enough solitaire. - Like all GMT games the learning curve is pretty steep, and the tactical and strategic mastery curve is even steeper. This game handles a unique and therefore fascinating theme, albeit heavy handily at times, but the mechanics of the game give a very different and true-to-life feeling to each of the factions. the cards seem at first to favour the Jihadists, but other aspects balance out the deck with the rest of the game. I've only played a few times but similarly to Twilight Struggle [a masterpiece] this game is drenched with tension and excruciating decision making. I invariably end up finding myself standing up in this game because I'm too jittery trying to get my intricate strategies to go off. Some people have complained about the treatment of the theme and the pretty obvious western bias evident in the event cards. For me that was not an issue because I play the game for the game, and not for the politics.
Review: Excellent game - The game captures the essence of the war on terror. It leaves me with the profound thought that while one side has to win, the other side merely just doesn't have to lose. This game is brilliant for those who like strategy. My first play-through saw me playing the western forces. I committed too many troops and found myself in an endless quagmire, picking away slowly at the enemy in what was taking too many turns, while he was able to focus attention elsewhere. I lost.

## Features

- Great strategy game for 1-2 players
- Takes up to 3 hours to play
- Lots of replay value

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent two player, decent enough solitaire.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solo War Game better 2 player
*by M***A on August 26, 2013*

The theme is definitely a bit controversial. The game is a solid card driven war game. The components are nice the cards are very durable. The game is super complex for an average board gamer. For an avid war gamer, it has all the meta play and chit counting that one would want ala Twilight Struggle. It is a super complex game with multiple layers of depth. The AI in solo player plays very predictably in the first few plays, but does get more advanced the more you learn the game. There are a lot of pieces to keep track of and if you don't like holding 10-15 things in your head at once about what needs to happen before x,y, or z can happen. I'm not an avid war gamer but I love playing war games and area control games. I would only recommend you get this if you are an avid board gamer, an avid strategic planner in your daily life, or an avid board game war gamer. For those that still haven't familiarized themselves with the complex world of boardgames, this may not be the best intro to that world. I would suggest Memoir '44 or D Day dice as lighter war games, with different mechanics.
