Trap

Tiles that hurt to stand on, some of them invisible.

A trap is a tile that damages you for standing on it. Traps are not marked on the ground in any reliable way: many have spikes drawn on them, but some have no marking at all.

Timed traps

Some traps are on a timer. They rise and fall in a repeating order, so a corridor of them can be crossed by moving while the tiles ahead are down, and crossing carelessly is how the sequence catches you. The Pain Of An Artist maze is built out of these.

The trap list has every map that carries them and how many.
