The 5 best online maze games from Crazy Games

I admit when I need a break from creating maze art I search for maze like games. My favorite site recently for this content has been the Crazy Games site which has thousands of games (from my research the number as I write this is about 4.5K). So many games that you need to search by genre to find the type of game you want to play. For me, that is maze games. A search will give you 9 options. A search will also try to send you to the makeup games in the beauty category…and if you are reading this you do not want that. Here are my 5 favorite maze games ! I must say that my rankings are different than the sites users, but each of these is worth checking out if you like mazes.

1. Beam. (Rated 9.0 by users)

Not listed as a maze game - it is exactly that, and my favorite one ! The goal is to move the internal pieces of the puzzle that will reflect the light beam from the entrance to the exit. Essentially you need to make a maze. There are 7 different types of levels but all are similar - creating a maze ! Reminds me a bit of laser mazes if you prefer solving your mazes the old fashioned way.

Here is a screenshot of the “gridlock” type of gameplay. You need to move the blocks to empty spaces to create a path for the beam to cross the structure ! Although the overall gameplay is simple, I really like the variety among the different types. I am a big fan of the pipe paths since I make pipe mazes myself on this site ! The variety of types make this my favorite maze game on the site !

2. Maze Worlds (Rated 8.7 by users)

I’m not sure this is a maze game, but I’m also not sure that it isn’t. And either way, I like it. Easy to play and understand.

The gameplay is simple. I actually am not sure how you lose. I just kept completing level after level. You move your player in one of the four directions with your keyboard to ‘fill’ a square. Once all squares are filled you have completed the level. Sounds easy, but as you move on things can get tricky ! Here is a screenshot to give you an idea of the game:

3. Maze Planet 3D. (Rated 8.9 by users)

I played a few games and enjoyed it. The 3D nature of the maze mean it takes a different skillset to solve since you are blind to what is around corners - or really around the horizon to be more accurate. No looking ahead to see which pathways are dead ends - you’ve just got to trial and error !

Here is a screenshot of the first level. You use a soccer ball to solve a planet maze made out of bricks. As you move forward, new planets and balls unlock.

4. Maze Discover. (Rated 9.4 by users)

Dig Dug and Mr Do vibes but from above at an angle. You have a shovel and you dig out or unearth pathways into a maze, gaining gold along the way…find a key and exit from the door, etc. There are merchants to spend the gold with along the way.

As you advance, you get a pick axe, find hidden passages and gems. Fun. More complex gameplay than the other entries in this list, especially as you advance into the higher levels.

5. Golf Maze. (Rated 9.1 by users)

This is a new game for March 2026 and it is a rotation/physics game where you rotate the playing surface to get the golf ball into the hole. Or multiple golf balls as you progress in the game.

Gameplay is what you think it would be. The early levels are easy and go by quickly. Some things you can’t touch…while other items will help you (typically buttons you need to run into). It is a fun, quick game where you move to the next hole quickly.

I find myself playing each of these games when I need a work break. Check them out. If you are a fan of mazes one of these games will be for you ! Each has different style of gameplay to check out. Happy gaming !

Maze of the Week #229 - The Great Sphinx

I’m going back to back iconic locations. Maze of the Week #229 features The Great Sphinx of Giza. This is my first maze of the week from Egypt, although I have done a maze of a certain famous King in the past. This is on my bucket list of places to visit, especially now that the GEM is open. We can’t be sure but it is believe that it was built sometime around 2,500 BC. Wild. I would love to see what it looked like when it was new. Check out this short video for historical information:

The maze: I did this in color and used shadows to give it more shape. The erosion of the stone made perfect walls to use to make a maze.

Into the Labyrinth (2020) Movie Review

I review any movie containing a maze or labyrinth. And there are some great maze movies that have been made ! But also there are movies that are the complete opposite. Today I will review Into the Labyrinth, or L'uomo del labirinto in Italian and see which list it fits into. The good news is this movie can usually be streamed for free on variety of websites. You can check the current availability using this link for justwatch ! If you are a reader you can also check out the 464 page book from Donato Carrisi that the movie is based on from Amazon, or better yet try to find it at your local bookseller / library.

Into the Labyrinth (2020) (IMDB)

Of all the movies I have reviewed this movie has the most different posters. Check out the 4 I found below: 3 of them have a mixture of labyrinth and maze imagery. They wanted to make a labyrinth - but ended making mazes. (Mazes fit into the story better).

Into the Labyrinth movie posters

First, I must say that we live in a world where we are constantly multitasking and electronic devices always want our attention. This is not a multitasking movie. You need to pay attention to the storyline and could easily get confused even if you do pay attention !

Into the Labyrinth is a thriller starring Dustin Hoffman. Should be good. The storyline follows an unfolding narrative that tries to explain how a missing woman, now recovering in a hospital came to be there after escaping her kidnapper. Who is that kidnapper, and what was their motivation ? Also, is that Donnie Darko on the movie poster (poster #1 & #3 above) ?

The story takes place in 2 different locales with 2 different sets of actors. Dustin, playing a doctor who is a profiler working with the woman in the hospital to find out what happened to her. She seems to have lost her memory and he is helping her recall what has happened to her. All of this happens in English. The other half of the movie shows a private investigation, done by a man name Genko, into the same case, all taking place in Italian. As the movie progresses new clues give us a variety of possible suspects. Tension builds. There is a weird rabbit story (the Donnie Darko reference I made earlier). The occult is introduced. Tension builds. and 75% of the way into it, the thing starts to show cracks. The story falls apart. Eventually things get tied up at the end, but the great start has already fizzled out. I’m not going to spoil any plot points, but there is a lot going on at the end (something reading the book could much easier explain).

So, what is the deal with the labyrinth ? Well, while the woman was kidnapped she was trapped in a dark stone labyrinth by her captor that included many locked doors. In order to get the supplies she needs she must solve a small 3D labyrinth/maze puzzle that has been left in her cell. Basically, her captor is a big fan of labyrinths.

Overall I give this a 5.5/10, but it had much more potential that was wasted.

SPOILERS: What happened at the end

There are 2 main twists in the movie Into the Labyrinth (2020):

  • The true identity of the kidnapped girl. Throughout the movie, we are led to believe that the woman in the hospital is Samantha Andretti, the girl who was kidnapped 15 years ago. However, in the final act, it is revealed that the woman in the hospital is actually Mila, a police officer who has been newly abducted and drugged.

  • 2 cases. Although presented as one case during the movie, these are 2 separate cases shown side by side. There are 2 serial kidnappers (at least) on the loose. Our labyrinth lover, “Dr. Green”, played by Dustin Hoffman and a series of “bunny” kidnappers who appear to be passing down the tradition as victims become perpetrators. Our final scene combines the stories as Genko and Dr Green meet in the bar.

When I look back I wonder why I thought there was 1 serial killer case when we had 2 languages being spoken….surely they were far away from each other location wise. Looking back the plot question becomes how did Genko and Dr Green meet in the bar at the end ? In hindsight this is movie that you might want to watch twice, despite my low initial rating once you understand the story structure.

After you have seen the movie and you wonder what exactly was going on I suggest you read this long and detailed explanation if my short summary wasn’t enough for you.
