What is The Maze of Ishtar
This obscure game is similar to the German "Das verrueckte Labyrinth", but the maze is much more complicated. Up to 4 adventurers try to collect 4 items from the 4 corners of the maze and bring them to the center. Each of the complex tiles can be turned through magic during the game, an ingenious idea is that 2 tiles can be "locked" and prevented of being turned by having a pawn in-between them.
Each player commands "himself" and a smaller "explorer" pawn, which explores the tiles and collects spell cards.
Fantasy-themed, but essentially an abstract race/maze-game (which doesn't totally work, but is sort of interesting).
