Game premise

Forty Depths Beneath Knossos: The Minotaur's Maze is a puzzle-adventure game set in a labyrinth designed by the architect Daedalus, who has been trapped inside it by King Minos. Players navigate through the maze, encountering various traps and obstacles as they work to escape while rescuing four other protagonists who share his fate. Each section of the maze represents a handcrafted environment with distinct challenges, drawing on Greek mythology for both setting and narrative.

Exploration and navigation

The game features forty hand-built mazes located across four different regions. Players must descend through various themed areas such as the Salt Cisterns, the Bronze Foundry, and the Gorgon Deeps. Each maze contains unique denizens and dead-ends, demanding a thoughtful approach to navigation. Players can mark their routes in chalk, which aids in tracking progress and avoiding backtracking.
