2 player Minotaur maze game.

ATBurke (1)
I'm trying to implement a turn based game for a 2 player Minotaur maze game. I just need help coding the part where the minotaur is included in the maze (starting in the middle) and the player controlling the minotaur is able to move after Theseus moves. Also, I need to make it so the game ends if the minotaur player catches the Theseus player.
