Reunite the two halves of Janus, Roman god of doors and passageways, in this retro puzzler.

Janus has been split in two. Switch back and forth between the two halves of the two-headed god to navigate your way through a labyrinth teeming with deadly foes. Find which switch opens each door, but think fast as Janus' foes are unrelenting and the doors will close should you tarry too long.
