Folding the screen in half
Each minotaur is stuck on its own side of the split screen until you merge the two halves into one. Line up the edges and a ledge on the left becomes a bridge on the right, or a dead end opens into a path to the exit. You spend most of your time positioning both characters, merging and splitting the view, and testing whether the geometry lines up. It rewards lateral thinking over jumping skill, and levels often have more than one solution.
Built for the couch
This is local co-op at its simplest: two minotaurs, one maze, plenty to argue about. You coordinate moves, talk through strange spatial puzzles, and take turns hopping across the seam you just created. Solo play is possible by switching between both characters, though controlling two minotaurs at once is awkward and the game is more rewarding with a friend. You can even share a single controller if you are short on hardware.
Good to know?
Can you play it solo?
Yes. One person can guide both minotaurs by switching between them, which works but takes more concentration. The puzzles stay the same, so expect extra planning around positioning each character before you merge the screens.
How do you play with a friend on one computer?
It is local play only, with support for two controllers or one shared controller. Sit side by side, decide who takes which minotaur, and sort out who calls the merge.
How long is it, and how hard does it get?
The 30 crafted levels run about three to four hours. Early rooms teach the screen-merging trick, later ones twist it with swapped views and floors that appear only under certain conditions. The challenge is mental rather than physical, and simple-looking answers are often the right ones.
Do levels have only one right answer?
No. Many levels accept multiple routes to the exit, and some allow workarounds the developers did not plan. That makes it friendly for co-op friends who solve problems differently.
