Magic Labyrinth

I bought this game as a game night game to play with the whole family . I just finished up playing a few rounds with my ten year old daughter . We had a great time playing . She won a few .I won a few. I still have to play with my seven year old .She is looking forward to it.Before buying the game. I looked to see some video reviews on YouTube.There is a video from the Dice tower that sums up the game pretty well.There are a few things I would like to mention here. This version is not put out by Playwright .It is as stated put out by Schmidt .I can't really see any differences between the two. I do not own the playwright version . So if your a collector this may differ from the other.The game is very easy to play and learn . The goal is to have your wizard/ magician go threw the labyrinth to collect five symbols. The wizard pieces have magnets in them. Under the game board are little wooden pegs you set up as the maze. Before you start the game you put a metal ball under your wizard . When it is your turn you roll the die and move forward. If your wizard goes over a wooden peg that is hidden under the game board the ball falls off . Your wizard goes back to the start .It is then the next players turn.The first player to get five symbols wins the game.For younger and older players you may or may not want to use markers to help them out .To do this just keep the pieces left over from popping out the slots for the wooden pegs.As for the game pieces and board. The wizards are made of wood with the magnets inside covered by some felt. The symbols are tokens that you punch out of sheet board.DO NOT THROW THIS PART AWAY OR CUT IT UP !!!!!As this is whats used to put the wooden pegs in to make the magic labyrinth. I love the artwork for this game.I am very happy with this.We will be playing this game quite a bit I feel.

The concept of this game is different from others I have seen. You move your piece through an invisible maze to obtain items within the maze. You discover the walls of the maze by running into them (which places you back at the start) and you have to remember where they are as you proceed through the game. A prior reviewer left a good tip to save the little black rectangles that result from punching out the cardboard walls which are installed under the playfield. You can make the game easier (and playable for younger kids) by placing them on top of the playfield to mark the walls as you discover them. I have several board games available for my grandkids and this one is requested the most.

Great to play with my kids

I used to work with kids with disabilities and LOVED to play this game with them because the game is not complicated so it can work for any age or ability. It's also great for the memory!! You just have to navigate through a labyrinth which you can make easy or hard. There is a magnet attached to each person that falls if you hit a wall. The idea is to collect the most tokens or whatever the pieces are called. I highly recommend!

My granddaughter and I played this and thoroughly enjoyed it. The first time you set it up the “walls” are difficult to put in but the second time it was much easier. It was recommended for kids with adhd and she enjoyed this. The first game she was way behind but then very quickly got caught up. I recommend this game as a fun game.

easy rules, fun concept, and not too many pieces to keep track of.My 7 year old and two 5 year olds love playing

I like that the game can be made more challenging.

It is a very easy to learn game that both the kids and adults we've played it with enjoyWe got it to help our 5 -almost 6- year old son with his short term memory and problem solving skills and he's beaten us a couple of times now! He also enjoys playing it and making up mazes.Definitely a must have for any child, or adult, that likes board games!
