labyrinthine
Labyrinthine refers to something complex, intricate, confusing, or maze-like in nature. It can be used to describe physical structures, such as buildings or paths, as well as abstract concepts like thoughts, procedures, or situations that are difficult to understand or navigate due to their complexity. The term originates from the term "labyrinth", a complex structure of interconnecting passages that is often used to confuse or mislead those within it.
