About Labyrinth
From the the award-winning designer and intelligence analyst Volko Ruhnke, Labyrinth combines an emphasis on game play with multifaceted simulation spanning recent history and the near future.
Labyrinth portrays the U.S. efforts to counter extremists’ use of terrorist tactics, as well as the wider ideological struggle – guerrilla warfare, regime change and more. As a 2-player game, one player takes the role of jihadists seeking to spread fundamentalist rule over the Muslim world, while the other player is the US, neutralizing terrorist cells and encouraging Muslim democratic reform.
