PvP puzzle labyrinth

My biggest misgiving about Boreas Colossus is that there aren't more puzzles ! It makes me imagine entering a labyrinth full of puzzles, fighting to get to the other end, running into cul de sacs and getting lost, having strange encounters, and having to start over from the beginning, and the movie Labyrinth.

Also this recent episode of Doctor Who, Heaven Sent, where the layout of the maze keeps changing every time he fails to reach the end in time,


Now imagine this as a PvP scene.

There would be different quadrants or sectors, and to get to each sector, you would have to pass through puzzle rooms. In each, there was also a mechanism to change the layout of the labyrinth -- to change the relationship of the sectors to each other. At the end, or at more than one end, possibly, there is a treasure room, or a passage somewhere else, or some other kind of prize.

PvPers enter the labyrinth and end up having to compete with each other -- not only trying to get through the puzzles, but to outwit the other people trying to get through the puzzles. Because your competitors might be changing the shape of the labyrinth to trip you up, to trap you and kill you before you get to the prize. So instead, you have to trap them to kill them, and get the prize yourself.

The puzzle rooms would also have NPC mobs to make them more challenging, and perhaps mini-prizes you can secure in these rooms through completing the challenges to turn the rules of the labyrinth in your favor and against the favor of your enemies. This would make each puzzle room also a battleground.

Imagined in the style of Boreas Colossus either above ground or in an underground scene, entered to through the Boreas Colossus scene.

 

No. I'd rather not imagine this as a PvP scene lol

 

Murder labyrinth

 

Pretty much...

 

What of better? How do we make it better with each passing ?

 

Instead of moving sectors/quadrants, it could also be moving rings, like in the Doctor Who clip of the maze readjusting.

 

I fully support the dev of such a pvp scene. Sounds fun!

Totally watching this movie right now, thanks for the reference
