King Minos of Crete ordered a great maze to be created to contain a monster known as the Minotaur. Sacrifices were sent to the Minotaur. The hero Theseus volunteered to be sacrificed, and killed the beast, solving the maze. This resulted in its creator, Daedalus, being imprisoned along with his son Icarus.
Today, you will create your own mazes... with your new tribes!
This challenge will have two parts. In the first part, you'll work together as a team to design a maze. In the second part, you will all individually solve the maze created by the other team.
Here's how you create the maze.
-It must fit into the grid which has been provided. Walls can only be created using the grid lines.
-The maze must be solvable. So, you must provide a working solution to the maze.
-The maze must have a starting point (a green square) and an ending point (a red square)
-You may add the following things to the maze to make it more tricky:
---
Here's how you solve the maze.
-You will be linked to a google form containing the image created by the opposing tribe. Each tribe member will solve the maze individually.
-You may not talk to your tribe members about the maze.
-Your solution to the maze is a series of directions. North, East, West, and South. You may include repeats such as Southx3 or Nx2

-You may add the following things to the maze to make it more tricky:
- 2 teleporter tiles (purple): When teleported, the player will move to the other square. They must return to the teleporter to use it again.
- 2 Oil tiles (grey): The player can only move the same direction as they moved previously if on an oil slick.
- 2 Fire tiles (orange): If a player has passed through oil they cannot pass through a fire tile unless cleaned.
- 2 Water tiles (blue): Cleans a player, allowing an oily player to pass through fire.
- 2 Ice tiles (cyan): Player may only pass through this tile once.
You may use all of these, or just some of them.
-You have 24 hours to submit a maze with your team. When you are satisfied, add your maze image to a post containing the bolded word FINISHED as well as a completed solution.
Example Maze:

Here's how you solve the maze.
-You will be linked to a google form containing the image created by the opposing tribe. Each tribe member will solve the maze individually.
-You may not talk to your tribe members about the maze.
-Your solution to the maze is a series of directions. North, East, West, and South. You may include repeats such as Southx3 or Nx2
-The final time for your team will be averaged among the times taken by each individual tribe member. A tribe member that fails to complete or has an incorrect solution will result in a time of 30 minutes.
Solution to example maze:
