I'd value the horse to ~20 passes, the additional 14 are probably going to be covered up by the gifts given :P I'm going to go for it at least, but then again I'll be able to afford it with my diamonds I suppose :P

If you look at the prize list it's pretty slim pickings.
You'll get a couple of hera packs, maybe a SOA or a h.Gift and maybe a couple of percherons but nothing to write home about. I don't know how the market will react to the super limited percherons so they might be worth it.

This maze promo looks scary... there's no way I'd be able to navigate it even with the map and lots of TCs... I'm just going to concentrate on finding the percherons and the SOA.

^^ Go for the percherons <3

You are lucky enough to find a Gift Space and the Draft is your gift

Red Line is supposedly the shortest in terms of moves/spaces - but not the fastest. The White Dot map is said to be faster due to the treats.

1. It is the squares around you when you use it - and yes, it is a block.
2. Yes, it will show the other icons (Treats (red candy) - Gifts (Green present) - spyglass (eye))

Here's a before and after shot when using a Spyglass:

Before:


After:

so while everyone has a gift in the same spot, and there are the same types of gifts per board, the type of gift you get is not the same for everyone? If so, that seems a little unfair
Is it random or are there maybe 10 or so boards and it's random which one you receive?

Everyone has the same map and gifts. For example - there is only 1 Seal of the Apocalypse to be found in the Maze...so everyone only has one on their map that they might find. There is no chance of a player finding two of these for example.

Gift wise ~ while everyone has gifts in the same spot (ex. cell S2 has a gift on my map, S2 will have a gift on your map, S2 will have a gift on Dr Zig's map, etc) - however, we might not find the same gift at that spot

You might find the Seal of the Apocalypse
I might find 50x Carrots
Dr Zig might find a Percheron

Here's the Prize List of what can be won - and how many of each is hidden in the Maze:

someone asked if things will be the same live, and ow answered saying that the maze will be the same but the prizes will be located in different spots. So every maze will be the same and I believe the treats and eyeglasses should be in the same spots (however that is not for sure for sure unless someone has a confirmation from ow) but the little presents you see right now will be moved around some.

I'm still curious as to how it's "decided" what gifts you get though. Is it completely random, or are there perhaps a finite set of maps with different gift combinations and you are randomly doled one map at the beginning of the promo?
Maybe any of you on preprod could compare to see if you have the same boards?

though my gut instincts tell me that things like the Seal of the Apocalypse, Titan's Challenge, etc (the 'good' items) will probably be closer to the exit of the maze rather than the beginning.

This is my list of things that I found and where as I traversed the maze following the 'Red Line' route with only minor deviations:

Location = Prize

E:22 = 1 x 2** Classical Saddle
F:19 = 1 x Hera's Pack
D:18 = 50 x Carrot
B:18 = 1 x Water trough
D:12 = 10 x Aging point
A:11 = 1 x Apollo's Lyre
F:9 = 1 x Fertility Wand
E:6 = 6 000e
D:1 = 1 000e
F:4 = 500 x Oats
I:2 = 1 x Titan's Challenge
J:6 = 50 x Carrot
I:8 = 1 x Water trough
M:9 = 1 x 2** Classical Saddle
O:10 = 1 x Philotes' Stroke
K:10 = 500 x Oats
J:11 = 1 x Seal of the Apocalypse
F:13 = 1 x Lunge
H:19 = 1 x Helios' Ray
J:22 = 500 x Oats
Q:19 = 1 x Golden Apple
V:22 = 1 x Philotes' Stroke
V:18 = 1 x 2** Classical Bridle
P:17 = 1 x Lunge
L:16 = 1 x Medusa's Blood
J:13 = 50 x Carrot
R:15 = 1 x Bell boots
V:15 = 6 000e
S:12 = 20 x Leather
Q:10 = 1 x Medusa's Blood
R:8 = 1 000e
V:6 = 1 x Apollo's Lyre
N:3 = 10 x Aging point
O:1 = 1 x 2** Classical Saddle Cloth
S:2 = 1 x 2** Classical Bridle
V:3 = 1 x Fertility Wand

If anyone else here who is on Preprod wants to post their results/compare...go right ahead.

*small note about this list of mine...The Bottom of it is from the start of the maze, the top from when I exited - so if you are looking to see if the deeper you get into the maze equals better prizes...start at the bottom of this list and read up

The gifts will be in random spots for everyone (so while everyone will have a gift in the same spot - it might not be the same thing)

In theory - yes, as the SoA could be right at the start of the maze for you, or it could be a little further in.
