Maze Runner CTM is a vanilla Minecraft survival map for Java Edition 1.21.8 that recreates The Maze Runner movie. Players spawn inside a 300x300 block glade enclosed by a maze whose corridors rearrange between two layouts, and must survive Grievers (enhanced spiders) while completing a Complete the Monument objective in each maze domain to progress toward the exit.
How to install Maze Runner CTM
- 1.Download the map world folder from the CurseForge project page.
- 2.Copy the extracted folder into your Minecraft saves directory.
- 3.Launch Minecraft 1.21.8 and select the map from the Singleplayer world list.
- 4.Stand on the diamond block at spawn to open the interactive setup menu, or run /tp 0 200 0 to teleport straight to the glade.
How to play
The glade is the only safe zone; the surrounding maze opens by day and closes at night, when Grievers roam the corridors. Each maze section (Narrows, Inner Ring, and Outer Sections) escalates in difficulty and hides a monument that must be completed before the section's exit unlocks. A full playthrough runs an estimated 20 to 40 hours across all domains.
Required resource pack
Maze Runner CTM bundles a custom resource pack for its audio cues and visual effects. Accept the pack prompt when the world loads so maze sounds, monument markers, and Griever effects display correctly.
Known issues
- Built and tested for Minecraft 1.21.8; older or newer versions are not guaranteed to run the command block logic correctly.
- Low render distance can cause maze wall changes to generate late or inconsistently.
- Designed around solo survival progression; large multiplayer parties may clear monuments faster than the pacing intends.
