The Grand Collector is a powerful sorcerer who after acquiring powers beyond comprehension grows bored of reality. He starts to use his powers to go through time and collect various creatures and curiosities to put in his Grand Menagerie, but he particularly seems to have an affinity for ship collecting. He collects ships from various time periods to put into bottles and store in a vast collection of ships-in-bottles. His rain of terror from collecting has earned him the name of “The Grand Collector”, and people through the centuries begin to fear him as a tyrant. But alas, even after making this vast collection, he grows tired even of that. He decides he needs something more for entertainment. He remembers how he enjoyed watching ants as a young lad and liked the feeling of power over them, as if he were their god. To replicate this feeling, he decides to kidnap a goblin by the name of ‘Klaus’ to force to go through a vast labyrinth he has made with his collection of ship-in-bottles. Klaus now must play The Grand Collector’s sick game and figure out a way out of his magical maze as The Grand Collector himself watches from above in amusement, taunting Klaus’ every move.




The web version has some bugs that we did not fix. If someone wants the full experience - the project can be run in Godot 4.5.
