Math Maze
Find the star in a growing maze, but every step costs you a sum. Answer right to move, wrong to lose a life. Three lives, endless mazes.
How to play
- Pick a direction with the arrow buttons or your arrow keys. You can only choose directions that are open.
- A sum appears. Tap the right answer to take the step. A wrong answer costs one of your three lives and gives you a new sum.
- Reach the star to solve the maze and start a bigger one.
- The sums get harder as you go, from adding and taking away, to times tables, to larger numbers. Your score is the number of mazes solved.
Tips and strategy
- Every maze has exactly one route to the star, so a dead end means you should come back and try another way.
- A sum is only asked when you take a step, so walls cost nothing. Plan the route first.
- Backing out of a dead end still asks a sum, so pick your turns carefully.
- Check the choices for obvious wrong answers before you do the full sum.
FAQ

- No. Every maze is a connected maze with one route from the start to the star.
- Do the sums ever repeat?
- They are generated fresh each time, so you will see different ones on every run.
- Is my best score saved?
- Yes, on this device in your browser only.
