About

Minotaur is a maze game based on the Greek myths about the creature that was fought by the hero Theseus. This game takes place before that though and the player takes control of a young Athenian that has to flee from the labyrinth without being devoured by the minotaur. The maze is randomly generated and is one screen in size. The player sees the maze from a top down perspective and starts out in the top left corner while the minotaur which is always visible starts out in the bottom right corner. The aim of the game is simply to reach the exit without running into the minotaur.
