Maps, often referred to as Courses or Levels, are the main focus of Minr. There are 6 main map types: parkour, maze, puzzle, search, dropper and adventure. Maps always award points based on their difficulty, unless they are in Board, Valley, or Hardcore. They are not to be confused with Challenges, which refer to map sets with special conditions.

Difficulty Ratings[edit]

Difficulty ratings serve as a way of sorting maps based on the amount of time and effort it takes for the average player to complete them. Ratings are decided by the Green+ community and are always changeable should a Reward Proposal pass. Below is a table of all the main difficulty ratings, their point values, and examples for each of them. Note that the examples on the left are all Parkour maps, the examples in the middle are all Maze maps, and the examples on the right are all Puzzle maps.

Main Difficulties Table
Difficulty	Color	Points	Examples
Very Easy	White	1	Mineco	Minr Maze	Isle of Redstone
Easy	Blue	2	Blazeville	Treasure Vault	Blackbox
Novice	Green	4	Sky Parkour	A Dwarven Playground	Amalgam
Moderate	Yellow	7	Canvas	Halls of Vibrance	Iron Door
Hard	Orange	12	Atari	Wolly Mammoth	Viae
Very Hard	Red	18	1010	Invictus	Blight
Expert	Black	25	In Rainbows	Invictus II	The Magic Tower

Variable[edit]

Varied maps are maps that don't follow the traditional difficulty values and instead award multiple sets of points. They can be recognized by their purple color, and can award different point values depending on the map author's decision.

Examples of Variable maps include ANHUR, DOOM-ED, and Memories.

Unassessed[edit]

Unrated maps define most of the realm of unpublished maps, including Green+ 'rage' maps, event-specific maps, or older version maps that don't reward points like the normal counterparts. These maps can only be recognized by using Checkpoint commands because they currently do not exist in Star Spawn. They award no points, either.

Examples of Unassessed maps include Ninja Warrior Training Course, Wool Town: Retro, and Woodwork.

Multiple Ending Maps[edit]

Maps with multiple endings can be of any main difficulty value, so long as they require multiple playthroughs to obtain all the points. They are distinguished by having concrete powder blocks instead of wool. The powder color is determined by the point reward of the intended first ending.

Examples of Multiple Ending Maps are Mint's Trials, Monkey Trumpets, and Palmtree Panic.
