Pick your path

Use these buttons, or focus the maze and use arrow keys / W A S D. Disabled buttons point into walls.

Start at the blue dot and find the gold goal.

A small wander

Take a turn. Find a dead end. Try another way.

Every maze has a connected path from the blue starting dot to the gold goal. Follow the corridors using your keyboard or the direction buttons. Backtrack whenever you need to; the optional trail shows your current route from the start.

Try the daily layout or generate a fresh one. Three next-step hints are available on each attempt. They point toward the goal without moving the player for you.

What is the daily maze?

For a given grid size, the UTC date generates the same layout. Different sizes have different mazes. A fresh maze uses a new local seed. Restart keeps the current layout and clears moves, time, and hints.

Does every maze have a solution?

Yes. Generation connects every cell without creating loops, so there is exactly one route between any two cells. Your walk can still include backtracking. A hint finds the next step from your current position, including a step backward out of a dead end.

How are moves and time counted?

Only movement through an open passage adds a move. Pushing into a wall does not. The timer starts on the first valid move and stops at the goal; it keeps elapsed time if you switch tabs. Completion includes attempts that used hints.

Is progress saved?

No account or automatic storage is used. Closing or refreshing resets the attempt. After reaching the goal, you can save a small text result containing the maze identifier, moves, elapsed time, and hints used.
