I didn't find a thread about this so I decided to make one.
I've been playing this quirky little game
http://store.steampowered.com/app/252570
It actually reminded me a bit of an old PC game called Nosferatu, it was an FPS that came out in the early 2000's and had random elements - the castle changed, enemies were different every playthrough, etc.
It was very janky but really fun, I played it a lot.
Knossos has some dynamic elements as well - you need to quaff potions before you identify what they do (like in roguelikes), etc.
The whole thing is pretty strange though; the music especially produces a disconnect, since it's like some weird 70's synth soundtrack and the game is set in a classic Greek setting.
The animations/graphics are pretty janky but I actually think they work pretty well in the context of the game. Overall, I guess I'm trying to say it's been an interesting game and it's been very hard for me to get interested by games lately. I still haven't managed to beat it but I think it's definitely worth a look.
