About The Vaults of Minos
It definitely hits the 8-bit music of the 80s like nobody’s business (...) if you’re a sucker for retro-styled sprites, well, you don’t have to look any further.

Don't miss THE VAULTS OF MINOS!4 found this helpful
Hey, really enjoyed this. It is undoubtedly difficult, but certainly possible, and with the variety of traps, mazes, and difficulty settings, it's a great rogue-lite. If you'd like to see me play this game and talk about it, check out my video, Thanks! https://youtu.be/5bUi5ODW9R43 found this helpful

Searching for the term "platformer" on Steam gives you over 17,000 results... there's thousands and thousands of garbage tier platformers infesting Steam. "The Vaults of Minos" fits right into that category of retro 2D shovelware glutting the Steam store. Only a tiny number of those are any good, and this isn't one of them. This certainly has some of the worst graphics out of any platformer... it's a very basic 8 bit style platformer with pixelcrap and no content. I think more effort went into the backstory about some dude called Nimroder trying to wake the king up because apparently the king isn't a nice man, so we have to stop him. This means lots of badly done pixelcrap precision platforming, a couple of fights, but no real interest from gamers, this was a huge failure on Steam Direct. This is a tired, outdated experience from a tired, outdated and obsolete game genre. Just a couple of platformers out of literally thousands have any appeal for gamers lately (Super Meat Boy, Hollow Knight etc). This "me too" Steam Direct platformer in a crowded genre offers nothing new. It's "free", but [i]free[/i] doesn't mean [i]good.[/i] This is another case of Itch failing the one sin…
