소개
Minos is an innovative maze-building roguelite that flips the script on classic mythology. Instead of escaping a labyrinth, you play as Asterion, the legendary Minotaur, actively designing a deadly sanctuary to fend off bloodthirsty adventurers. By blending tower defense mechanics with puzzle and roguelite elements, you must strategically place walls, gates, and chained traps to protect your domain.
스토리
As Asterion the cursed Minotaur, you must feed the sentient maze with the blood of fallen heroes. Uncover deep mythological lore surrounding Daedalus, the labyrinth's creator, and prepare for an ultimate confrontation with Theseus to decide who truly deserves to leave alive.
Gameplay
Drag and drop walls and corridors to control space, forcing poor enemy pathing through your domain. Link brutal hazards like boulders and fire traps into devastating kill chains, and take direct, brutal control of the Minotaur if intruders push too deep into your sanctuary.
Key Features
- 1Dynamic Labyrinth Building: Drag and place walls, gates, and corridors to manipulate enemy paths.
- 2Chained Trap System: Link spikes, boulders, blades, and fire traps into devastating kill combos.
- 3Direct Minotaur Control: Take hands-on control of Asterion to manually crush heroes who breach your defenses.
- 4Deep Roguelite Progression: Collect powerful Artifacts and upgrade traps to survive escalating enemy threats.
- 5Sentient Maze Mechanics: Feed the labyrinth with adventurer blood to uncover lore and grow your power.
- 6Dynamic Nightly Runs: Encounter randomly generated combinations of enemies, modifiers, and trap synergies.

The Art of the Kill Chain
Minos stands out by letting players drag walls and gates to freely create paths. You aren't just placing towers; you are molding the environment to squeeze, delay, and crush heroes with chained elemental and physical hazards.
