Minotaur Catacombs Boardgame

Print your own complete boardgame - Minotaur Catacombs - The race board game where you play both a fearless Hero and a menacing Minotaur.
Your own hero must fight their way out of the catacombs while your Minotaur searches to destroy the trespassers.
Choose a Fighter, Barbarian, Wizard, Cleric or Archer, all with unique skills and abilities, to battle your way out of the catacombs full of traps, surprises, locked doors, and lurking Undead.
When defeated by any creature, your Hero wakes up back on the Minotaur butcher’s table!

3D print your 5 heroes (male and female versions provided), five Minotaurs (2 designs), 6 undead, 1 undead sergeant, 1 butcher table, 4 chests, and 7 doors. On a paper printer (color printer and cardstock recommended) print the 6 gameboards, 2 sets of encounter cards (for a total of 36), character reference sheets, damage tokens, damage tally sheets, and complete rules. There is also a Special Rules sheet for added play, if desired, as well as box art. Requires five 6-sided dice.

The party starts the descent into the catacombs. A faint light is spotted through a narrow tunnel that opens up into a much larger cavern. The noxious odor of burning sulphur mixed with another foul odor hits you as you enter. The thunderous crash behind you startles the entire party. The billows of debris and dust that spill out of the opening you just came through can only mean one thing – that way out is now buried. Two, large locked doors on each side can’t be budged. You turn your attention back to the faint light and you all creep closer. You begin to make out a large table almost to the back wall and as you come closer, your eyes open wide and you stifle a scream.

Laid out upon the table are various body parts, freshly severed, with blood oozing from the clean cuts and the gaping holes. An abnormally large axe sits with its sharp edge buried deep into the table. The scene looks like a macabre butcher’s table from a horrible dream. It is then you hear the deafening roars, which seem to be coming from all around you. The two doors on the upper end of the cavern both burst open and you expect a charge into the room of inhuman monsters, but the roars still seem further off. Each of you decide to take your chances through the doors in hopes of finding another way out. Tricks, traps and undead denizens lurk in the catacombs before you… The roars grow closer… the Minotaurs are coming back and you must get out now!

The goal of the game is to get your hero safely through the doors at the end of the catacomb. While you control your hero, you also control a ferocious Minotaur, savagely defending the catacombs and seeking out the intruders. While you navigate your hero to safety, you also move your Minotaur to attack the other heroes and send them back to the butcher’s table. Hero stats will vary depending on the class of hero.

Thanks to designers of some pieces and figures. I offer this game for free for all to enjoy! Any contributions are welcomed!

I made several of these games for gifts and they were a monster hit - the minis are extremely detailed, and the colorful game board is in sections for folding and storage.
