Our take on Minotaur
Its defining structure is a mystery divided among nine characters trapped in one apartment building, with available routes following Nod Pikes and Mentor-15.
What is Minotaur?
Minotaur is a point-and-click adventure with visual-novel-style storytelling, set in the science-fantasy Universe of Seven.
Nine central characters become trapped in an apartment building. The available routes follow Nod Pikes, a synthet trying to escape and confront his past, and Mentor-15, a teacher android on a journey of self-discovery. Gameplay includes puzzles, encounters with ancient creatures, and climbing stairs. Nod’s route has five possible outcomes: wicked, sad, very sad, brutal, and shocking.
