On this legit NES/Famicom game, you need to survive as the Minotaur in a random maze. The king Polyo-Minos not only locked you here, but he keeps sending some weird polyominos, cluttering the maze. At least he sends some fruits along with those blocks…

Update 1.0.1 (2023-10-05): fixed gamebreaking bug where player would keep playing after dying.

Update 2.0.0 (2023-10-11, POST-JAM version):

  • Better help screen
  • Web and standalone NES ROM display different buttons to avoid confusion
  • Better polyomino controls: up for hard drop, hold left/right/down for repeated movement
  • More predefined, semi-fixed mazes (is "No maze" a maze?)
  • Preview of the next 2 polyominos
  • Polyominos are chosen from a randomized bag instead of being purely random
  • Many other assorted fixes

Update 2.0.1 (2023-10-11, POST-JAM version):

  • Game can now be paused (with start/enter)
  • Pause screen gives the option to resume or to quit game
  • Hard drop now drops harder
