About Daedalus Maze Artwork and Packaging Bordspel

Daedalus Doolhof is 'n bordspel geïnspireer deur antieke Griekse mitologie. Die spel word gespeel op 'n bord met 'n draaibare, deursigtige laag wat vangstrikke dra. Elke speler ontvang ses pionne en 'n stel kaarte. Wanneer die laag gedraai word, verander die doolhof en beweeg die vangstrikke. Spelers moet die vangstrikke oorleef, die skat bekom en eerste die doolhof verlaat. Die stel sluit 68 kaarte in wat gode, gediertes en gebeure uitbeeld, tesame met dobbelstene en 'n brosjure. Die bord is driedimensioneel geteken en verbeeld 'n klipperige arena.
