Labyrinth The Board Game - The Unboxing - Let's Play
I was excited to say the least when I got the privilege to un-box and play the much anticipated Labyrinth The Board Game which has just hit the site once again! We gathered a few pals, popped a bottle of fizz (befitting the occasion we felt) and set off on our way to take on the Labyrinth!
In order to not affect the wonderment and mystery surrounding this oh-so popular creation, I won't give too much away about the details of play, however I will share with you that this game is focused around dice play and you all play as a team to achieve the end goal of defeating Jareth The Goblin King and releasing Sarah's little baby brother Toby!
Here are a few pics to whet your appetite!

Mad compared to the number of gigabytes of RAM we have now! Probably explains why the thing took so long to load :)
