Unmaze - a myth of shadow & light

In this visual novel inspired by Greek mythology, you play as Ariadne and it is up to you to guide Asterion and Theseus out of the labyrinth.

Place your phone in the light to talk to Theseus, or in the shade to talk to Asterion. But be careful - the more you help one of them, the more the other gets lost. Help them make the right decisions as you face up to lots of different dangers, discover the secrets of the maze and perhaps manage to set them free.
Their fate now rests in your hands. Will your cunning, wisdom, perseverance and skill be enough to help you make the right choices?

• Play the first chapter for free (about 1 hour of play)

Note: Unmaze uses your phone's light sensor to adapt the experience to your light environment, including changing characters during the game. The purpose is only to analyze your light environment, no data will be recorded. The game cannot run without a working light sensor.
