Description:

"Theseus and the Minotaur (Mac): Play one of the world`s most famous maze games!"

Play one of the world`s most famous maze games! In Theseus and the Minotaur, you must guide Theseus through 87 mind twisting labyrinths to escape the dangerous Minotaur.

Playing Theseus and the Minotaur:

In 1990, famous game designer, Robert Abbott, created this puzzle maze based on the Theseus legend. Playing the maze is quite simple, but solving each unique level requires a sharp mind. You must escape each maze before the Minotaur catches you. The Minotaur is twice as fast as you are, but luckily, he moves in a predictable pattern.

First he tests if he can move horizontally and get closer to Theseus. If he can, he will move one square horizontally. If he can`t, he will test if he could move vertically and get closer to Theseus. If he can, he will move one square vertically. If he can`t move either horizontally or vertically, then he just skips that turn.

The key to solving these mazes is to realize that a Minotaur follows a rigid program. He doesn`t do what you would do if you were a Minotaur. He doesn`t look ahead more than one turn. And, most importantly, he will choose a horizontal move before a vertical move.
