Tilt Maze

Tilt the board to roll a ball through a maze to the green goal. Drag, use the keys, or turn on your phone's tilt sensor, and avoid the holes along the way.

How to play

  1. Tilt the board and the ball rolls downhill. Drag on the board, hold the arrow buttons or keys, or press Use device tilt on a phone.
  2. Roll the ball from the top left to the green goal. Each maze is new and a little bigger than the last.
  3. Dark holes drop the ball back to the start and cost you four seconds, so steer around them.
  4. You start with 60 seconds and gain 14 for each maze you finish. Score is the number of mazes cleared.

Tips and strategy

  • Tilt gently. The ball keeps its speed, so a long hard tilt overshoots turns.
  • Use walls as brakes. Letting the ball bump along a wall is often safer than steering in open space.
  • Holes only sit in dead ends, never on the way to the goal, so they only matter if you wander.
  • On a phone, hold it flat and tilt a little. The sensor takes a moment to settle.

FAQ

Does the phone tilt option work on every device?
It needs a motion sensor and, on iPhones, your permission when you press the button. Drag and keys always work as well.
Why does the ball slide on after I stop tilting?
It has momentum, as a real ball would. Tilt the other way briefly to slow it.
Is every maze solvable?
Yes. Each one is built as a perfect maze with exactly one route to the goal, and holes are never on that route.
