Week of December 30, 2022-What's Coming to Labyrinth?

We're looking forward to 2023! Especially the FOUR upcoming Kickstarter releases by DC-area designers! This blog post also announces upcoming stock including the Beer & Bread board game; Magic: The Gathering’s Phyrexia: All Will Be One set, Magic's Dominaria Remastered set, and so much more!



Upcoming 2023 Releases by Local Designers!



Oceans: Legendary Edition


North Star Games is based in Bethesda, MD and North Star's owner and lead designer Dominic Crapuchettes is a long-time friend of our store! We can’t wait for North Star’s latest release to arrive (expected in August 2023)! Oceans is an engine-builder game that allows you to evolve water species in a continually changing ecosystem. This deluxe edition includes the core game, all promo packs, a solo mode, the new mythologically inspired Legends of the Deep expansion, plus a custom GameTrayz box insert. 

 


The Fox Experiment


This month we hosted Silver Spring, Maryland-based designer Elizabeth Hargrave at Labyrinth for a launch party on the release date of her latest hit game Wingspan Asia (photo: Wingspan Asia launch party)! We’re looking forward to hosting her again when The Fox Experiment arrives! Elizabeth has playtested The Fox Experiment and other games at Labyrinth! In The Fox Experiment, co-designed by Hargrave and Jeff Fraser, you'll have to breed fox pups to pass on desired traits to the next generation!

 


Junk Drawer

Expected in July of 2023, Junk Drawer is a family weight Tetris-style tile-laying game for 1-4 players, by Northern Virginia locals Travis Winstead and David Smith, along with Asha Farmer! To win, organize your junk drawer by carefully arranging items within four sections! Check out more games by this DC-area publisher, Winsmith Games!

 


We're Sinking!

We're Sinking! is a social survival game on the high seas, filled with action, backstabbing, and loot! We're Sinking! was playtested extensively at Labyrinth in conjunction with the DC-area playtesting organization, Break My Game! This semi-cooperative game has unique components that make your boat look like it is actually SINKING as the game progresses. All players win if they manage to take out a threat from the ocean. You win individually if you have the largest total score of treasure. (However, if the ship sinks before taking out the threat, you’ll only win by having the fewest cards in your hand so that you're light enough to escape on the lifeboat!) We can’t wait to see the final production of this fun game! DC-local and designer Joseph Frederick of Ludamus Games is offering We're Sinking! through Labyrinth at the original Kickstarter pledge price!
