The first floor of The Great Labyrinth, 'Crossroads of Fate', immediately throws you into a complex mix of mechanics. You'll encounter F.O.E.s from all previous movies, including fast Raptors, powerful T-Rexes, light-sensitive Security Bots, and crowd-dependent Street Thugs. The puzzles here often combine elements, such as needing to activate a light switch within a time limit to clear a crowd block, allowing you to bypass a patrolling F.O.E.
The map is vast and features multiple interconnected sections. You'll need to be meticulous with your map drawing, marking every F.O.E. patrol, switch, and special tile. There are 'Memory Fragments' scattered throughout, which provide crucial lore about the labyrinth and its origins. These are often hidden behind challenging puzzles or guarded by powerful F.O.E.s. Resource management is critical on this floor, as the regular encounters are tough and the path to the next healing point can be long. Take your time, plan your routes carefully, and don't hesitate to return to the Central Cinema to rest and resupply if needed.
