Platform: NES

Genre: Puzzle, Action

Wendel Scardua's Ludum Dare 54 puzzle: King Polyo-Minos has locked the Minotaur in a random maze and keeps sending polyominoes to clutter it.

You switch between moving the Minotaur and placing the falling pieces, which fill the maze along with some fruit, while a hunger gauge runs down. The jam theme was Limited Space.

It scored 4.01 out of 5 in the Jam category. Post-jam versions added more mazes, a preview of the next two pieces, a randomised piece bag, hard drop and pausing. The spin-off Miroh Jr. followed for the NESdev Compo 2023, and both share one source repository on GitHub.
