10 Most Underrated Board Games You Should Play

10. Labyrinth

Not to be confused with the board game based on the David Bowie movie, Labyrinth is the oldest entry and is the one that most closely resembles what is considered a traditional board game.

Labyrinth is a game of collection where 2-4 players attempt to collect relics stationed randomly in a board made up of small square tiles. Seems simple, plot a course, get the treasure, except the board is constantly changing.

At the start of each player's turn they have to use a spare tile to move a row of tiles one space vertically or horizontally along the board. This doesn't sound like a massive change, but as each tile shows a specific path – some corners, some straight, some T-junctions – any move can shift the whole layout of the maze.

As the game board is constantly moving players have to think several, sometimes hypothetical, moves ahead and judge whether their priority is to collect the treasure or stop their opponents from getting to theirs.

Very user friendly and open to the whole family, Labyrinth should be included in any board game collection.
