Jim Henson's Labyrinth: The Board Game

Four heroes cooperate to navigate a shifting maze and reach the goblin city to rescue a kidnapped child. Players move through a large illustrated labyrinth made of blank card spaces that are filled from a deck of encounter and monster cards, so the maze and its challenges change each game. Play splits into two phases: an exploration phase in which the group searches for the goblin city while managing willpower and avoiding traps, and a confrontation phase in which the party fights into the castle and attempts to complete a final ritual to free the child. The game supports 1–5 players and emphasizes teamwork and resource management.
