About the game
Pericle: Labyrinth is the second release from Long Dog games. Pericle is a bold new tabletop RPG that combines a fantasy RPG world with a ground-breaking app called Loremaster. App-driven gameplay presents the campaign, which takes away the need for a Game Master. Loremaster sets the scene with music and context, and indicates how to set up the tabletop when combat is inevitable. In the second Pericle product but the first of its kind, embark on a perilous journey into the legendary Labyrinth of Porta, where daring adventurers face the ultimate test: a rite of passage by choice, not chance. This contained tabletop RPG plays like a board game with physical maps and dice, assisted by our Loremaster app, which acts as the game master. You and your band of heroes must navigate a gauntlet of cunning traps and monstrous denizens. Amidst the dangers lies the promise of untold wealth, a tantalizing reward to beckon adventurers. Each journey through the Labyrinth is a uniquely generated adventure consisting of 5 encounters, ensuring endless replayability. Conquer each encounter to earn XP, loot, and prestige, empowering your heroes for future challenges. The Labyrinth utilizes the core Pericle rules and game mechanics found in Pericle: Gathering Darkness, creating a familiar yet thrilling experience. —description from the publisher

The listed playing time for Pericle: Labyrinth is 30–120 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game.

Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Pericle: Labyrinth for ages 13 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone.
