Weekly Hard Maze #1

I have had some success with making mazes for people who prefer difficult mazes. Not everyone wants to be overly challenged when solving a maze. In the past I have made mazes that were frustrating more than enjoyable. With this series I hope to make hard mazes that are also fun to solve. Each Saturday I will post a new 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 #1 - Double Weaving Maze

This is a maze made from 2 other mazes I combined, thus the long size. Pathways weave above and below one another. 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:

One Maze - Many designs

I wanted to experiment with maze design by trying a large variety of the tools available to see what I could make. This came to mind because I updated my Inkscape software and had to re-learn the layout I was used to. Every few months I find something that I wish I had known about before, so now I’m clicking on just about everything to see what it does.

So I start this week with a basic standard maze in black and white. My goal is to see how all the tools I find can transform it. Hopefully I find something useful ! Here is our starting point (maze zero) which I made in Inkscape:

Simple Maze

Every Friday I will update this maze with the experiments I did for the week. We will see what happens and hopefully learn a lot. Or not.

Introducing the Air Land Sea and Space collection books

I spent the second half of 2025 making mazes of vehicles of all types. Some of them were the maze of the week and I made so many extra that I added them in when I could during the week. In total I made of 47 mazes. I hope you enjoyed them. Each is available for download in the vehicle maze section of the site.

Today I announce that I have pulled together 40 of the mazes into 2 new books. 7 vehicle mazes are not included (they are vertical mazes and the book is horizontal). There are 2 versions of the book. The first version is a full color maze book and includes any backgrounds I used (some were made with AI). The second version has the same 40 mazes but is in black and white. I removed backgrounds and skies, etc. This version doubles as a coloring book. If you are going to print in black and white anyway this version will save some ink ! Here are the 2 covers of the book:

The downloads for half of the mazes changed a bit from what is available on the site, only because I standardized all pages to be the same size.

Let’s show a few examples of mazes and how they look in each version:

So, maybe you agree with me - I think the mazes look better in color, but I would prefer to print them in black and white and color them. If I was using a Kindle Scribe or similar tablet I might download the color version.

Either way - this book is free to download in the free printable section of the site. Happy Mazing !
