The Invisible Labyrinth

The Invisible Labyrinth is a game for 2-5 players about branching timelines, uncertain futures, and escaping what seems inevitable. It is a loose hack of the games Microscope by Ben Robbins and I’m Sorry, Did You Say Street Magic by Caro Asercion. In this game, you will play as a small group of characters as you nonlinearly create a web of timelines about their possible journeys. The Invisible Labyrinth was inspired by works like:

• 999: Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors (and the rest of the Zero Escape Franchise)
• Umineko When They Cry
• AI: The Somnium Files
• The Garden of Forking Paths
• WOE.BEGONE

The Invisible Labyrinth can be played using an online flowchart maker such as Miro or flowchart.io, or it can be played in person using a deck of tarot cards (or another oracle deck) and a corkboard with string (as seen, partially disassembled, in the screenshots).

The game contains:

• Tips & tricks for playing a nonlinear story!
• Instructions for building your Invisible Labyrinth timeline flowchart!
• TWO (2) oracle tables to guide play, based on the flavor/harshness of your game!
• SIX (6) starting scenarios inspired by media about time travel and branching timelines!
• Full artistic layout by Christian Geldart! (https://bsky.app/profile/little-zilla.bsky.social)
