As Robert Burns reminds us, "the best laid schemes o’ Mice an’ Men gang aft agley." This week, Chris and Laura discuss how Ravensburger's "Labyrinth" provides low cost opportunities to learn this bit of wisdom as shifting walls in a labyrinth upset players' plans to recover treasure. Whether talking about developing emotional regulation, adapting to changing circumstances, or showing how to make simple rule amendments that will keep gaming in the fun zone, they show you how to go over, under, around or through the obstacles that come your way. Games Mentioned: Labyrinth - Published by Ravensburger, this treasure hunt game with shifting tiles challenges players to adapt their plans as the way to their goals shifts. Enchanted Forest - Another excellent Ravensburger game, players' memories are challenged to find fairy tell objects hidden beneath the trees of an enchanted forest. (As mentioned, there is also the Wood Labyrinth and Jim Henson's Labyrinth: The Board Game, as well as Magic Labyrinth, but none are the subject of this week’s episode) Did you know we have a YouTube Page?
