About this game

A-Maze-Ing puts you in control of a mouse navigating an actual maze. Choose from several play styles, including Cheese Hunt, where you collect 10 pieces of cheese in the correct order before the exit is revealed, or Escape Maze, which challenges you to reach the exit quickly.

Additional options include Mouseholes for shortcuts through maze walls and Obstacles that block the center of passages. You can also configure whether cats appear, how many there are, how fast they move, and whether they behave intelligently. Solo players can pursue their best times, while two players can compete cooperatively or competitively.
