Let's say that this game is decent. It is pretty much a horror game, not specifically scary, but in a good percentage. Although small, the story is well done. Based on the Greek mythology, with a decent plot, since you read all the messages around the map. On the other hand, there are some glitches, major and minor, which can make the difference between a decent and a great gameplay. Torches disappearing, the beast can spot you even if you stay hidden. I have even faced some crashes, even though my PC runs this game perfectly on ultra. To conclude: Benefits: - Based on Greek mythology - Decent plot - Well-made map - Decent graphics Drawbacks: - Too small gameplay, almost like a demo - Major and Minor glitches (Torches disappearing, beast can spot you easily, game crash) Based on my opinion: Gameplay 9/10 Graphics 8.5/10 Plot 8.5/10 Misc. 7/10

A horror game steeped in Greek mythology, as the name hints to. Was pleasantly surprised that for a horror game, you actually start outdoors, and as you descend into the catacombs you cant help but admire the colorful well designed passageways and rooms. But you soon discover, a dangerous beast is after you. You can arm yourself with a bow & arrow and try to defeat him and escape, but don't miss your shot, or it might be your last. However, was a little disappointed at the ending, as I felt it was a little bit of a slap in the face. Definitely worth the purchase price of free, but don't be too surprised or frustrated about the ending. Don't take my word for it, and check out my video by clicking on the link. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5M5LoFJnr2Q&list=PLGCO4EfbVB6XXoAnQMUJjoEh3c2BLfHx8&index=43

Good (free) game; reminds me of Amnesia: The Dark Descent; just set in ancient Greece. Pretty cool story. Nice atmosphere and ideas used. The only nitpick I have is that the game gives you a bow, but only makes you use it once, and it can't be used against the monster (which I tried to do twice). I'm not sure if the concept of a horror game set in ancient times was done before, but this is pretty cool. Can recommend. Note: Currently, the game's about 1 hour long.

Descend the Depths to Hades In Medusa's Labyrinth you do not fight hordes of mythological creatures. You do not battle the gods in epic warfare. You do not wage war against Sparta's enemies. No, in this unique first person dungeon crawling horror game, you navigate a vast underground labyrinth, piecing together a woeful tale about a young girl named Alyona and her friend Arcas - all the while attempting to evade a ferocious minotaur. Armed only with a torch and a single bow, players must find their way through the dark maze and discover what atrocities occurred down there all those years ago. Medusa's Labyrinth places emphasis on atmosphere and creating a sense of dread and hopelessness over violence and gore. As you descend deeper and deeper into the labyrinth, the music gets more and more tense and uneasy. Locating more pieces of parchment detailing the horrors of the maze crafts a story of insanity, death, dread and evil beyond words, and really helps lend to the atmosphere of the game. Medusa's Labyrinth is a modern indie horror masterpiece.

Playing this game with a headset on, really is nerve-racking. You have no idea what's going on, no idea what horror you are going to encounter. You have no idea how you are going to defend yourself, you have no idea if you will even be able to see what hits you. That's what the game does best, along with the sound effects and musical ambience. It's brilliant. To set the story in an ancient Greece, full of mythology and mysteries...setting is quite the original idea for that kind of horror game. Worked for me. I always picture a minotaur to be more massive than the ones you encounter here but that's just me. Although, a full game only populated with the same ennemies in the same labyrith might get old quick. Greek mythology is full of dreadfull and mystic creatures that beg to be used for horror games. This developper has a huge potential to make an awesome game, capable to rival Amnesia or Alien Isolation in terms of "fuck! the monster is here, I'm shitting my pants right now!" Well done, guys. All the best for the future.
