Do you love mazes and navigation challenges? Are you looking for light games to help you pass a few minutes each day with a challenge and enjoyment? If so, we have a simple, free, and recommended website for you that offers a variety of routes with different difficulty levels and game modes updated daily. Maze.toys is a site that updates daily and offers various game modes, with or without time limits, and mazes in different sizes that can suit young children on one hand, and adults looking for an engaging yet light and challenging computer game on the other. We’ve prepared a short guide for you to get to know these different options. A heads-up: the site can also be used from mobile phones, but it requires a few adjustments that will be explained later.

Usage Guide for the Website:

The main page of Maze.toys includes 3 main sections for 3 different game modes. In the first section (marked with 1), there are mazes of varying difficulty levels, from the smallest (mini) to the largest (Mega), which change daily. To start playing, simply choose the desired maze size and begin according to the instructions that will appear later. The second game mode requires precision and patience, challenging you to navigate through mazes without mistakes, without hitting walls, and without backtracking. In this mode, you can play at 3 different difficulty and size levels. The final game mode is a race against the clock with 3 maze size levels, for each of which you can choose a time limit based on your preference. Note that the displayed time limit is in minutes.

After selecting your desired game mode, you’ll be taken to the game page, which is divided into 2 main parts: the side menu on the left and the game board, which includes the maze itself, taking up the rest of the page. Your goal is simple: navigate the red line from one corner of the maze to the other. If you’re playing on a computer, this navigation is done using the arrow keys on the keyboard, and you can also click the mouse cursor on the arrow icons at the bottom of the page (marked in yellow). For playing on a mobile phone or similar device, a full explanation will appear later. If for any reason you want to restart your maze or try solving it in less time, you can click the restart button in the side menu (marked in blue).

Adjustments for Playing on a Mobile Phone

Unfortunately, as of now, Maze.toys is not fully optimized for devices like smartphones and tablets, so there are some display issues, but they can be overcome. The first thing you’ll notice upon entering the site is that you’ll only see the right side of the main page. To view the entire page, you have a few options: rotate the screen sideways, zoom out on the screen, or scroll the screen to the left to see the game mode selection options already presented.

Once you enter a game, you’ll likely only see the side menu, but here too, rotating the screen, zooming out, or scrolling to the left will reveal the maze itself. Below the maze, the arrow buttons marked in yellow in the previous image will appear, and you can tap them to navigate the maze. This is a great option for those who want to open short and simple mazes, but for a real challenge with large mazes and maximum precision, it’s recommended to use a computer.
