How to play Square Maze

A Square Maze is a maze on a rectangular grid. Every cell shares edges with up to four neighbours, and you may move between two cells only where the wall between them is open. Start on the green cell and trace a connected path through the open passages until you reach the goal star. There is exactly one route between any two cells.

THE RULES

  1. Start on the green cell.
  2. Step to a highlighted neighbour through an open passage.
  3. Reach the goal star to win.

BEGINNER STRATEGY

  • Follow the corridors. Where only one passage is open, the route is forced — chain those together.
  • Avoid dead ends. If a branch closes off without reaching the goal, step back and try another.
  • Tap to undo. Tap your last cell to step back — explore freely, no penalty.
