About Daedalus Maze Artwork and Packaging Gêm Fwrdd

Mae Daedalus Maze yn gêm fwrdd wedi'i hysbrydoli gan fytholeg Roegaidd hynafol. Chwaraeir y gêm ar fwrdd sydd â haen dryloyw gylchdroadwy sy'n cario magl au. Mae pob chwaraewr yn derbyn chwe gwerinwr a set o gardiau. Pan gaiff yr haen ei throelli, mae'r ddrysfa'n newid a'r maglau'n symud. Rhaid i'r chwaraewyr oroesi'r maglau, cipio'r trysor a gadael y ddrysfa yn gyntaf. Mae'r set yn cynnwys 68 o gardiau sy'n dangos duwiau, bwystfilod a digwyddiadau, ynghyd â dis a phamffled. Mae'r bwrdd wedi'i ddarlunio mewn tri dimensiwn ac yn cynrychioli arena garreg.
