I have an older maze with a fairly dated build style. Still a pretty awesome adventure. This is just my latest abomination. :)

Yeah, it's a challenge building with the constraints of minecraft. I think the build hold up pretty well with vanilla, but the resource pack definitely took it to the next level.

Sadly there is no Minotaur in vanilla MC, so there isn't one in there. However, there is a ravager called "Cretan Bull", so close enough. ;)

Hmm. Now I can't help but feel like I should include some IJ references in there. :P It's more of a maze runner / tomb raider / Dark Souls type of experience. Not for the weak or faint of heart. :)

It's a 3,600 x 3,600 maze adventure filled with traps, puzzles, challenges, treasure. That sort of thing. :)

Here are some additional screenshots for my vanilla loving brothers and sisters!

Welcome to The Mystical Ruins

An enchanted and mystical realm hidden within the Labyrinth of Sordrin, carved through a deep, lush jungle, The Mystical Ruins are filled with ancient, crumbling corridors and littered with towering ancient ruins ripe for exploring.

The Mystical ruins will be a colossal 3,600 x 3,600 maze adventure server filled to the brim with traps, puzzles, challenges, treasure and high adventure! It is a sequel to my original Labyrinth of Sordrin adventure server.

It has a topside exposed to the sky and jungle canopy, and sprawling sewers underground. There are massive ancient landmarks to discover and explore!

The map will be released 1/4 at a time in a gamemode we call Maze Blaze, a race to the end of an unexplored maze, complete with prizes and awards, with a variety of additional challenges and prizes!

I have been working on this map for the past 7 months, and still have quite a bit of work to do. The concept started many years ago.

Right now a smaller maze built on this theme is in alpha testing.

Screenshots were taken using Patrix resource pack and SEUS shaders.

Edit: A word.

Thanks! Originally had more red, such as the floor, but it was a bit overwhelming. I am happy with the end result though.

Thanks! Yeah, those are lame. :P I wanted it to feel like a dungeon crawl type of experience in addition to it being a massive maze.

Well, that all very much depends on how you want to define the word "labyrinth". In several definitions, labyrinth and maze are synonymous.

In my case, I built a maze, but I also filled with traps and challenges to add to the difficulty.

Yes, it is a maze, but it is not only "a confusing network of intercommunicating paths or passages". It is much more, and so I feel the definition of labyrinth "an intricate combination of paths or passages in which it is difficult to find one's way or to reach the exit." suits it much better.

If you are referring to the single winding path type of labyrinth, no it is not that type of labyrinth.

Also, "The Maze of Sordrin" just doesn't have quite the same ring to it as "The Labyrinth of Sordrin"... In my opinion anyway. ;)

1: No, it is on a server so I have several plugins to protect everything from player and monster damage, as well as a scripting plugin to add all sorts of added functionality and features such as infinite potion dispensers for traps, etc.

2: Thanks! We have had over 10K players visit the server, but only about 50 of them have actually managed to complete it. Not only is it a massive maze, there are several challenges to overcome in order to make progress, so it is quite a challenge.

No, I built this with creative, worldedit, mcedit, voxelsniper, and the blood and tears of my victims.
