About Moyako Maze
Moyako Maze is a spatial-navigation workout where you guide a marker
from entry to exit through a procedurally generated grid. Each maze
is new — never the same layout twice. Four difficulty tiers — Small
(10×10), Medium (15×15), Large (20×20) and Expert (30×30 with
one-way corridors) — scale grid size, wall density and trick
structures. Sessions run 30 seconds to 4 minutes and every solved
maze counts toward your daily streak.
How to Play
- Pick a difficulty tier and press Start Maze. Your marker spawns at the green entry; the goal is the red exit.
- Swipe in any cardinal direction (or use the on-screen arrows / arrow keys) to move one cell at a time. Walls block movement; the marker stops cleanly against them.
- Use Peek (long-press the centre button) to briefly overlay the full maze. Peek burns score per second so treat it as a last-resort orientation tool.
- Backtrack freely — no turn limit, no dead-end penalty beyond the time bonus ticking down.
- Reach the exit to score. The score rewards short paths and penalises peeks. Perfect-path runs unlock a streak badge.
Skills Used
- Spatial Navigation — building a mental map of the maze as you explore.
- Planning — choosing between a fast-but-risky forward push and a slower systematic search.
- Working Memory — remembering which branches you've ruled out so you don't loop.
- Inhibition Control — resisting the pull of a promising corridor that's actually a dead end.
Tips for Better Play
- The right-hand rule (always keep one hand on the right wall) solves most simple mazes but wastes moves on open mazes — use it as a fallback, not a default.
- Glance toward the exit at every junction. A corridor heading broadly in the right direction is usually worth trying first.
- Mark mentally-cleared dead ends by colour or count so you don't re-enter them under time pressure.
- Save peeks for truly stuck moments; one scheduled peek beats three panicked ones.
FAQ
Is Moyako Maze free? Yes. All four tiers and the streak are free.
Are the mazes procedurally generated? Yes — a depth-first generator with tier-specific wall-density parameters. Every maze has exactly one solution path.
Does it work on keyboard? Yes. Arrow keys and WASD move the marker; Enter peeks briefly.
Is there a time limit? Yes — each level is timed, with more time on the easier tiers. Run out and the round ends.
