Labyrinth: The Forever War, 2015-?

About this expansion

Labyrinth: The Forever War, 2015–? is a 1–2 player card-driven board game that simulates at the strategic level the ongoing bid by Islamist extremists to impose their brand of religious rule on the Muslim world.

Released in 2020, this second expansion to the Labyrinth game series continues where Labyrinth: The Awakening, 2010–? left off. It adds new event cards and rules covering the five years of history since the earlier game and its first expansion were published.

The expansion grew from continued interest among fans who wanted to update the game based on more recent events. A variety of event card ideas and variants had already been freely shared online, and The Forever War brings that ongoing interest together in an official expansion.

• Designed for 1–2 players
• Uses a strategic, card-driven game system
• Adds new event cards reflecting more recent history
• Introduces rules that extend the series’ ongoing model
• Continues the campaign begun in Labyrinth: The Awakening

By extending the historical scope of the series, Labyrinth: The Forever War allows the game to continue serving as a strategic-level model of the ongoing struggles in the Muslim world. It is intended for players interested in following the evolving conflict through updated cards and expanded rules.

As an expansion, it builds on the existing Labyrinth system rather than presenting an unrelated setting. Its focus is on keeping the series current while continuing the strategic examination that defined the earlier games.
