Labyrinths and Mazes – Games

A new game will be available each week throughout Advent – Keep coming back!

How To Play

Get through each week’s maze or labyrinth by answering a series of questions – but you can choose ‘Easier’ or ‘Harder’ questions.

If you get a question wrong, on each occasion you will get another chance, with a supplementary question. The questions are partly fun but sometimes with a more thoughtful edge.

It shouldn’t be too difficult to make your way towards the crib at Bethlehem.
