How it feels

A tense, atmospheric chase through a dark labyrinth where every step is shadowed by an immortal, ever-present Minotaur.

What players say

Players are split on Tauronos. Some find it a bleak, tense dungeon crawler with good atmosphere and tricky puzzles, while others call it frustrating and dull. Complaints center on the slow walking speed and the relentless minotaur that discourages exploration. The game is short, around 3 hours, and has a time-limit mechanic that increases the pressure.
