Labyrinthian
A downloadable game for Windows
Labyrinthian is a 1-4 player arcade game in which players take turns trying to escape the maze, and trying to catch those escaping the maze (as the Minotaur).
How to Play:
The game unfolds through a series of rounds, in which players compete to reach the target number of points (anywhere from 1-8 depending on your selection in the game menu). Before each round, a die is rolled to determine which player is the minotaur. The minotaur must kill all other players in the round to win a point. (Note: the player does NOT have to kill the wanderer NPCs). Non-minotaur players can score a point by being the first one to reach the ladder in the center of the maze.
Controls:
Player1: movement=WASD, jump=E, attack=Q
Player2: movement=YGHJ, jump=U, attack=T
Player3: movement=PL:", jump=[, attack=O
Player4: movement=arrowkeys, jump=INS KEY, attack=left ctrl
Important Notes:
* All players can jump, but only the minotaur can jump over walls. Jumping as a Wanderer may reveal you, but can be useful for finding yourself at the beginning of the game
* Getting caught in the beholder's gaze causes you to turn white and make a noise that alerts the minotaur. It should be avoided at all costs. As you'll notice, regular NPC Wanderers do not turn white under the beholder's gaze; only players.
* If you get stuck or spawn in a wall (sometimes that happens) press Shift+R to refresh the maze layout for that round
