Before we all head into the labyrinth, I figure we should have a level playing field for making calls about risk.
If you die here, apparently you don't stay dead. You're down for two days or so, then you resurrect wherever your body happens to be. So it's probably a nice gesture, if you see a corpse in the maze, to drag them somewhere not totally inconvenient to wake up.
The temporarily dead also come back fully healed of injuries, but the penalty is some kind of personal loss. Think scars, tattoos, a digit, possibly more intangible qualities, etc. I have no idea what the rules are on that, so if anyone has any useful speculation, consider the floor open.
In fact, if anyone is familiar with this kind of thing back in your universes, you're invited to share with the class. The more we know about resurrection in general, maybe the more we can figure out about how it works here. Bonus marks if you have first hand experience.

Fun as this is, for the record, I'd prefer it if people don't take this as license to get themselves killed even with the safety net. I'm not going out and changing my strategy over it.

What if it's all about the spirit of fairness? Before now, you didn't know you were being watched by the all-powerful AI. Could be we'll all put in that extra bit of effort to get ourselves to 110% of our mousy capabilities in the murder maze now that we know we're being judged. Perform more admirably under pressure.
Probably not, but you never know.

this whole thing's just a mind game

Not that I'm judging opting out. It's your universe. Your call if you think it's worth playing mind games for or not.
