Great family game!,
Our family is big on Lego, and board games, so obviously we were intrigued by all the new Lego games. While at the Lego store, they told me that the staff favorite was Minotaurus, and that it was somewhat like Sorry. We love Sorry, so I thought we’d like this one too!
The goal is to get your heroes to the center of the board first. But there are hedges and walls making a maze that you have to wade through. You roll the die and go that amount of spaces. If the die lands on black, then you can move the Minotaur 8 spaces, hopefully taking out one of your opponents and sending him back to start. If the die lands on grey, then you move a grey wall brick – you can block your opponents’ path, or keep the Minotaur from reaching you, etc.
The basic game has you win when you have one hero reach the center, but it’s actually way more fun when you require all three heros to be there. Then you have time to really mess up people’s pathways and get the Minotaur action going. We also like to play the variation with the addition of a green die option, which enables your hero to jump over a hedge.
The die has got rubber edges, which means it bounces all over when you roll it. It is both funny and annoying at the same time. Be prepared for it to get bounced off the table over and over again. The kids think it is hilarious.
The major downside is that the pieces are regular-sized lego pieces, so they can be hard to manipulate in the tight spaces of the maze. My youngest is 5.5, and he is just barely able to deal with the smallness of it. (But the recommended age on the box is 7+, so he is below that, but he just loves the game.) It would be nice to see a duplo version – I don’t know if that would be too big or not.
Anyway, my kids have been wanting to play this every night since we got it. You have to have kids that are okay with getting knocked back to start and a little trash talk. If your kids are traumatized by Sorry, then they won’t like this. But if your kids are more cutthroat, then they’ll love it. Every time the Minotaur gets unleashed in our games, everyone starts chanting “Min-o-taur! Min-o-taur!” while the hapless hero screams, “Nooooo!!!!” We’ve been having a blast with it.

|Loved by kids and parents,
My five year old and 8 year old ask to play this constantly. Easy to learn but there are a wide variety of strategies to consider. This can be played as a very fast game or a long-drawn out game if you like by modifying the goals and rules. I really recommend this game.

|very fun,
i like the minataur and i like how you can play it in different versions. i like how it’s a maze and you can block your opponent from getting to the temple and you can move the minotaur. it’s a long game.
