Hello fellow community members,

I am a collector of Bungie memorabilia and Bungie's classic games. For the longest of time, I have been searching for Bungie's Minotaur- The Labyrinths of Crete but have failed to have any success on finding the game. After 3 years of searching, I've turn to the community for help.

If you have any information such as the game's sales records; how many units were dispatched/sold etc. I'd love to know. If you know of any person, museum, organization, who may have a copy of this game I would love to know. Basically any information that you'd feel would help me in finding this game or you think I should know, I would be much appreciative too hear so please do so share it.

I know I can play the game but as you've probably figured I don't want the game to play it. I am a collector and want the game to add to my collection. Any help on the game is much appreciated.

Thanks,
-HotHead

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

Here is a copy of it for $5.00 along with several other games, IN A SACK!!!

Is it the actual boxed game, or is it on 1 disk. Do you know if there is any other "Stand-Alone" units of the game?

Thanks,

It is disk(s) that have the games on them you download.

I have never seen a original copy of Minotaur on Ebay or anywhere for sale.

Define original. Only Bungie would have the first copy of Minotaur. I don't think there's a visible difference between the Minotaur games sold separately and the Minotaur games included in those bundles.

I am looking for the original Minotaur, Meaning I want it to have it's original box and such, maybe not box but at least I want it to be in the protective game case. The Action Sac does not have the game's original boxing and so on.

Thanks,

Oh, alright. I didn't realize there were different versions.

"That's about all that can be said for plots, which anyway are just one thing after another, a what and a what and a what.

Now try how and why."

If I remember right, a grand total of about 2500 copies of the game were sold. With that in mind, I'd imagine that it's a fairly rare item.

You can find the game in digital form here or get the aforementioned Action Sack if you really want to, but it only runs on pre-osX mac systems. While plenty of emulators can be found to alleviate this problem, it's multiplayer only and only works over appletalk. I've played maybe three or four games of it total and I'll probably never get a chance to play it with another person again.

I acknowledge my user name is stupid. However, I promise I'm not.

I don't have a clue, mate. Good luck.

Please stop complaining about the 'death of a loved one' it's my job. They probably deserved it anyways. Here's a warning, if you keep making pentagrams out of the neighbors livestock I will personally come to your house and kill everyone you love. Now leave me alone, I got to get back to work.
