A short, but challenging Game Boy game about overwork and hustle grindset bullshit that has you fleeing a minotaur by manipulating its mechanical strengths and AI weaknesses. It's at a sweet spot between being too restrictive and therefore too prescribed and being too open and therefore not a puzzle game. The sprites and tiles are great and I really like the inter-level map. The only change I'd make is to not play a level's text intro when you restart after being caught by the minotaur.
