## Description
Ever wanted a brain-teasing challenge you can take anywhere? Mazard is the ultimate definition of a mental survival and memory game! In this experience, you aren't just a player; you step into the shoes of the legendary architect Daedalus. Your mission? Construct the most complex and impossible labyrinth in history to keep the Minotaur contained. But watch out—it's a dangerous task: you must design this maze so skillfully that you don't end up lost in your own creation. If you lose your way or forget where a wall was placed, the Minotaur will find you, and you'll end up as its next snack! The best part is the minimal setup: all you need are three things you likely have at hand—a pen, two pieces of paper, and a standard deck of cards. This is a purely solo experience, centered on testing your memorization skills and path-tracing precision. As the cards dictate the unfolding events, the map grows and the tension rises. It's quick, intense, and perfect for those moments when you want to challenge your brain without needing a massive game box on the table. If you love logic puzzles, mazes, and want a quick challenge that will leave your brain buzzing, Mazard is for you!
