As you already may know, Magic Maze, a real-time fully-cooperative game that was nominated for the Spiel des Jahres in 2017, is now available in alpha!
You can access it via the reviewer interface https://boardgamearena.com/reviewer?game=magicmaze or ask me to add your username to the 'Magic Maze players' group. I encourage also the filing of feature requests and bugs at https://boardgamearena.com/bugs?game=1209 .
The game transitioned to the 'alpha' status a bit ago, but I've held off on announcing it before the interface became a bit more stable. Thank you to the contributors who have already played it and given feedback about the interface!
The one-player variant of the game does not implement the solo game rules -- it is just the multiplayer game where you can do all of the actions. Even with this superpower, it is somewhat difficult to get through and get everything done.
Feel free to play around in that sandbox environment as much as you'd like.
I highly recommend you use voice chat to play this game with others, as time is of the essence. There is a green grid around the screen to remind you when you are allowed to talk by the game rules. It is also a bit difficult to play this game on a phone or a tablet, even though it is possible -- the small screen size makes it hard to see the entire game board, and this game really does sprawl! Suggestions to improve this experience will of course be taken into mind.
