Labyrinth is a 1987 action-adventure game released for the Famicom (NES) by Tokuma Shoten, based on the classic Jim Henson fantasy film. Players take on the role of Sarah, tasked with navigating Jareth the Goblin King’s sprawling mazes to rescue her baby brother Toby before the thirteen-hour time limit expires. Played from a top-down perspective, you must explore intricate levels, gather items, and recruit familiar allies like Ludo and Hoggle to assist your quest.
How to play
Your objective is to find your way through all thirteen mazes to reach Jareth. Use the Arrow keys to move Sarah around the maze. Press Z and X to interact, use items, or defend yourself. Press Enter to pause or access your menu.
Tips
The on-screen clock serves as your health meter; taking damage or touching enemies directly drains your remaining time. Navigate carefully, as the game features seamless screen warps that can teleport you to different locations without warning.
