Every time the maze difficulty is reset in the Engineering room, the doorways on each side of the rooms are opened or closed, making a maze with a different configuration. The entrance room past the unresponsive "Greeting" Modron is always one of the lower, southern row of eight rooms.

<!-- RTE::{"spaces":0,"type":"LINE_BREAK"} -->Making a map of the maze is very helpful. It is recommended to save often here. The foes are tough, and the player may prefer to find Nordom before the Wizard Construct. Unless the party encounters the Wizard Construct and asks the Wizard about the fate of the previous Rubikon project Director, it is possible to miss upgrades.

The most straightforward way to do this is to save before going through any and all north doors (top right in isometric view) because that is the only kind of entrance that fits with the Evil Wizard's room, and always go through any west (left) doors, because Nordom's Room is also always the same layout.
