What is MINOS?
A maze-building roguelite rooted in Greek mythology, where you play the Minotaur defending his sanctuary from adventurers. Across runs, you reshape corridors with walls and gates, split up intruders using rotating passages, and connect pressure plates to traps to trigger chain reactions.
For you if...
- +you like combining careful preparation with hands-on combat
Not for you if...
- −you want defenses that work without your direct intervention
- −you prefer open-ended building to tightly constrained puzzles
