Title
Maze generation is a fascinating problem from the theoretical standpoint, and it's a credit to the developers of Amazing Maze that they were to generate these large mazes in a 1976 arcade game.

On the other hand, technical triumphs don't always translate to fun for the player. The objective here is to complete each maze before a computer player going in the opposite direction. Honestly, it's only a small step up from completing mazes with pencil and paper.

Needless to say, maze games would be launched to much greater prominence with the success of Pac-Man in 1980, but Amazing Maze bears little resemblance to that later hit. It also wasn't the first arcade maze game, an honor which belongs to Gotcha.
