You play as Asterion, the Minotaur, defending his labyrinth from waves of adventurers. With Daedalus’s help, you reshape the maze to steer intruders toward traps and keep them from reaching you.
Before each wave, change walls and corridors, place traps, and plan around the incoming enemies. During the attack, you can move Asterion, lure foes, and fight survivors or interact with traps instead of only watching the action.
Traps can be linked to pressure plates and other devices, and some combinations trigger extra effects. As you descend, you unlock more traps and upgrades for Asterion, while new enemy abilities call for changes to your layouts and tactics.
Players who enjoy careful strategy and puzzles often praise the maze-building, the satisfaction of planning traps around enemy groups, and the discoveries that come from combining devices. Some also enjoy the Greek-myth setting and presentation. Criticism recurs around enemies that disarm or resist traps, and some reviewers find later stages repetitive, lengthy, or frustrating when mechanics and outcomes are hard to predict.
