Each Saturday I post a new hard maze with all of them sitting in the Hard Maze Archive. I will try to post a variety of maze types to keep things interesting.
Weekly Hard Maze #13 - Large Pipes Maze
Solution will be in the archive. Download is below.
If you solved that maze quickly and want to try some of my archival hard mazes, these posts should do the trick:
This is a continuation of my maze design experiments. Read about it in post #1, One Maze - Many designs, then The first 5 experiments and so on with a new post every Friday, or just enjoy the ride.
The original maze:
I played around with what the lines were made of again in this iteration of mazes.
The first maze I made all of the lines into Ants following one another.
The second maze I made all of the lines out of footballs or soccer balls depending on where you live. Either way it is the ball for the top sport in the world.
The third maze uses a variety of vegetables, using carrots, asparagus, and 2 types of squash.
The fourth maze can be hard to see, but I used a type of dash, but rounded the ends so they overlap onto each other. This gives it a bubbled line look.
The fifth maze is similar in that it used dashes that are spaced farther apart, but still touch. It reminds me of the skinny balloons a clown might make animals out of.
Just playing around this week. You can make the lines out of many things.
I am back again with all the things I found during the month that didn’t quite fit into it’s own blog post, but that I found interesting about mazes and labyrinths. The news archive for past months is at the bottom of the post.
The world’s largest stone labyrinth is now open !
7 years after building began, a stone labyrinth called Kerdroya has been completed in Cornwall, England. Created by Cornish artist Will Coleman, the labyrinth is 56meters wide, (183.7 feet), making it the largest stone labyrinth in the world. The photos in this article show just how impressive it is. Plan a trip on the official website.
A Maze on the Restroom Floor
Never thought I would write that. I have written many blog posts about maze games, and Pac-Man was the arcade game that popularized the maze chase game genre. Well, if you live in Portland, OR you have probably visited the arcade Ground Kontrol. Located at 115 NW 5th Ave, this seems like the kind of place I would love to hang out. Eventually you will be to use the restroom and, as this article mentions, it includes a tile floor of our favorite arcade maze game.
A Maze Comic Strip
I have my own maze comic strip that I update every Wednesday, but I found this political cartoon by Bill Bramhall showing Trump in a maze. Check out the link to see it.
The King adds a maze to a garden
The Castle of Mey in Caithness, GB was a favorite of the late Queen Mother, who enjoyed spending time in the gardens. King Charles was a fan of mazes as a child, so when he had an opportunity to remake the gardens and grounds of the Castle of Mey he made sure to design a small maze in the garden. The article that spoke about this is making the rounds again, and I am looking for updates on the maze completion.
Micromouse competitions took place in March in the US
Check out the APEC Micromouse website which was scheduled for Monday, March 23, 2026. This features engineers competing to have their robotic mouses solve a maze the fastest. Here is a video showing previous contests:
Some news is evergreen and can be found in past monthly news posts:

I used Google Gemini to make this comic strip based on my comic idea with a few changes. (I am too busy making mazes to make all of the illustrations needed). Come back each Wednesday for a new comic strip. All comic strips will be housed in this archive.
Doyoumaze Comic Strip #13 - Field of Mazes
A farmer builds a baseball field in his field thinking they will come, but is also a fan of corn mazes - what could possibly go wrong ? Field of Dreams + corn maze = game delay.
