About this game
Maze Escape is a pathfinding game where you find the exit in a freshly generated maze on every stage. Mazes grow bigger and the time limit gets tighter as you climb stages, which makes plotting the route in your head genuinely fun.
How to play
- Start at the top-left and find the exit at the bottom-right.
- Move one cell at a time by dragging, arrow keys, or on-screen buttons — whichever suits you.
- Hold the input to keep moving in the same direction.
- Reaching the exit gives a time bonus based on time left and moves you to the next stage.
- From a certain stage onward, fog appears and only nearby paths are visible.
Tips
- When you hit a dead end, re-check the last junction rather than retracing every step.
- In foggy stages, following one wall consistently helps you avoid losing the path.
- Get a feel for the layout in early stages, where the time limit is generous, before tougher ones.
- Running out of time doesn't end the game, so staying calm beats rushing and getting lost.
FAQ
- Can I play right away with no install?
- Yes, it's free and runs right in your browser.
- Can I continue from a stage I've already cleared?
- Yes, the stage select screen lets you continue from any stage you've cleared.
- What happens if time runs out?
- It's not game over — you just miss that stage's time bonus and keep going.
